My engagement ring is still sparkling on my left hand, and my little head is full of ideas for my wedding.  My fiance and I have not yet set a date (blush), but we have started weighing our options.

We are both pretty keen on the idea of having a weekend wedding, you know the kind of wedding that starts on a Friday morning and ends on the Sunday evening.  I have always loved those American flicks where the whole family gets together, and they play a game of American football or croquet before the wedding.  Is it just a nice, fancy dream, or can we really pull it off as well as Tinseltown?

Edible wedding centerpieces are especially great if you are planning to let your guests be seated while you are having your photos taken.  A lot of couples like to do this as it keeps the guests from getting bored.  You can let them nibble on the centrepiece while they await your grand entrance.  Just let them know that they can dig in by placing little cards on their place setting or nominating a family member to spread the word.
