Online Counseling 4 the Instnt Msg Generation - Nationally known marital/premarital counselor Dr. Kim Kimberling is among the pioneers of state-of-the-art online marital counseling. This type of counseling is a very effective option for couples who are separated by distance (i.e. military couples) or for those who simply prefer the convenience. Online counseling is a growing trend and is proving very effective, since couples tend to be more honest in online sessions than they are when face to face with a counselor. Dr. Kimberling's programs are used in churches around the world, and couples who take his course and marry have only a 5 percent divorce rate.

Cheap Wedding Food: A Reader's Thanksgiving Wedding - It's a refrain I've heard time and time again: "Why is finding affordable wedding food so hard!" I told you last week about the wedding trend of simpler wedding food, but simpler doesn't actually mean less expensive. That's why I loved finding this reader's post about his Thanksgiving wedding reception, which not only celebrated his favorite holiday, but allowed him to have cheap wedding food. In fact, his entire reception food budget was a mere $400!

Top 5 Michael Jackson Wedding Songs - Like many around the world, I was so shocked about Michael Jackson's death and terribly sad that the world had lost such a talented man. But it wasn't until I found myself unconsciously dancing along to P.Y.T. at the grocery store this weekend that I remembered how great it is when DJs play Michael Jackson at a wedding. Not only are his dance songs guaranteed to pack the dance floor, but his R&B ballads are romantic and fun. Here are my Top 5 Michael Jackson Wedding Songs
The Worst Wedding Food? - Today's earlier post (which asked you all to be inspired about your wedding food) naturally reminded me of all the weddings I've been to where the food was anything *but* inspired. The worst was probably a wedding at a hotel a few years ago, where the only thing I found remotely edible was strangely the calamari. Everything else was horribly overcooked, bland, and displayed in huge portions which remained uncomfortably clammy. A note to that hotel staff: Spaghetti should not be mushy. A strand should not break into four pieces when you try to pick it up. Need I say more?

But perhaps the worst tale I've heard of wedding food is from a friend, who reported that a recent wedding, which took place at a strip-mall catering hall, tried so hard to look fancy and yet was so obviously cheap. Tiny portions of chicken were dust-dry, while the beef was so tough it was literally impossible to cut it with the knife. But surely that can't be the worst wedding food you've ever experienced. I'd love to hear your tales of strange concoctions and terrible caterers!

A Gallery of Wedding Food; Simpler Wedding Food for the Recession - For a lot of people, choosing what to serve at their wedding starts with finding a caterer they like and can afford. Then they choose between the half-dozen entree choices and the assorted appetizers that caterer typically provides. But the catering bill will most like be the largest portion of your budget, it makes sense to think outside the box slightly and make sure the menu reflects your wedding and who you are as a couple.

That's why I love this new interactive feature on the New York Times website, a gallery of reader-submitted foods from their weddings. Looking at the different dishes and menus, you can really sense who each of the couples is, and what their wedding was like.

You might also want to read the accompanying article, which details how couples are opting for more "down home" menus in light of the recession. Unfortunately, the writer primarily profiled wealthy Los Angeles couples for whom the menu change is not really about spending less money, but rather the perception that they have. Here are some actual ways to save money on your wedding food.
What is a Wedding? - I recently had the small child of a friend ask me "What's a wedding?" and in explaining it to her, I realized that the simple definition was really interesting. Is a wedding the pomp and circumstance, the expensive dress, and elaborate reception? Or is it the simplicity of two people exchanging wedding vows? Here's how I define What is a Wedding.

Coincidentally on the same day, another friend seemed to be confusing a wedding with legal marriage when talking about the battles for gay marriage around the country. When I got married, my husband and I decided not to get legally married because the state's recognition didn't mean anywhere near as much as the recognition of our family and friends. While we might get legally married one day, especially if there is more equality in rights for all people, our wedding day will always be the day we actually got married. Here's what I think is The Difference Between a Wedding, a Marriage, and a Legal Marriage.
