Couple Wins Contest: Weds at Fair

Sometimes we think some people just want to be weird. Audrey Fernandez and her new husband David Ramos decided they wanted to have an unusual wedding. They were the lucky winners of a contest called "Marriage on the Midway," where they got married at the fair. (Nothing like cementing your love infront of a crowd full of carneys.) The ceremony was framed by the elegant Ferris wheel, the endless fountain spouting blue water, and the ever classic strawberry shaped frozen-drink stand. There were actually 10 couples who really really wanted to win this dream wedding. After the public voted, Audrey and David were crowned the lucky winners.

Their freaky wedding included four hours of rides and all the fair food they could eat. The honeymoon is an all-expenses paid honeymoon in the Bahamas. Guests were treated to corn dogs, cotton candy and elephant ears. Weeeeee!!!

Two Fights Erupt at Wedding Reception

It must have been one heck of a wedding this past weekend in Granville, Ohio. We know that fights sometimes break out at weddings when people have had too much to drink. (Don't even get us started on our Great Aunt Phyllis, AKA the Bouquet Basher...) But at this particular wedding, there was not one, but two fights that broke out at the wedding reception, one that just happened to have an open bar, held at the Granville Inn, according to police. No one was seriously injured and no charges were filed but it was one craaaaazy night. The first fight involved a couple staying at the hotel who seemed to be in a fighting mood and two guy friends who wanted to help out the woman. (Yeah, that didn't make the boyfriend too happy...) The second one involved a 'shoving match' outside the main entrance. Their fight ended with broken window and they pulled the door away from its frame. (We just hate when Superman gets drunk...) In a shocking statement, police said the couple and the pair who fought at the entrance were intoxicated. Wow, nothing surprises us anymore...

Rocks On!! Biggest Loser Style

wRocks On!!
(For those couples ready to walk the plank)

The show "Biggest Loser" seems to be turning into the biggest dating show on TV. (You know, expect for Dateline...Stone Phillips makes people do crazy things...) On Tuesday, "Biggest Loser" winner Matt Hoover proposed runners-up Suzy Preston on the "Today" show. (See proposal picture) Even though the couple had been looking at engagement rings, bride-to-be Suzy supposedly had no idea the svelte Matt was going to pop the question on TV with a 2-carat ring worth about $15,000. (Wait, we thought women had a sixth sense for large diamonds...) The couple has built a long distance relationship since the show ended. There is no wedding date set but we're sure we'll hear all about this reality show couple in the months to come. (Oh...yeah!) Cheers!

Runaway Groom Sued By Bride

WARNING! All grooms with cold feet should think twice before they cancel the wedding the night before.
A man with the last name He and his girlfriend--whose last name was Che--had planned to wed in a lovely ceremony in Kuming of Yunnan Province in China. Things didn't end up going as planned when He got into a spat with the bride's family the night before the big wedding. Apparently, the argument was enough to scare He away and he was a no show at his own wedding. (We bet it was a Monopoly related argument. Damn you Parker Brothers!)
While some brides would grab a pint of Haagen Das and settle in for six months of depression and anger, Che's family decided instead to get even. The runaway groom was ordered to pay 'spiritual compensation' to the family of his would-be bride and the court ordered He to pay $7,500 for damaging the bride's reputation. Nothing like financial revenge to make a gal feel better, is there?

Head Butting Wedding Commercial

There seems to be something with advertising and weddings to sell non-wedding products. In this clip, a seemingly calm wedding ends in the bride head butting her groom. (Yeah...we've all though about head butting the one we love at some point...) We aren't sure, once again, what this is an advertisement for even though part of it is in English. It's obviously a very effective advertisement. Enjoy!

Rings Repossessed During Ceremony

We can never stress this enough: Don't cheat people you owe out of money for your wedding.
A perfectly planned wedding in Swaziland was horribly interrupted because a private investigator was looking for something his client wanted back...the wedding rings. It turns out that the groom bought the wedding rings with a check that bounced. So, mid-ceremony the PI, Hunter Shongwe, went in and repossessed the wedding rings at the very point when they were to exchange vows with the disputed jewelry.
Though Shongwe never meant to cause any problems, he told reporters "My intention was not to spoil the wedding, but my instructions were clear - that I had to get money or the rings back." (Mission accomplished...10 extra points for major embarrassment and family ridicule.)
The ceremony was then delayed for several hours as the couple scrambled to find new rings. They ended up borrowing a pair from officials attending the ceremony. What a way to start off a new life together!
Remember kids, a diamond is only forever if you pay for it. If not, the only thing that will last forever will be the humiliation from a wedding day visit from the repo guy.

Rocks Off!! Hasselhoff Update!

Nothing like a good ole story about David Hasselhoff's divorce to make your day a little easier. Though this Baywatch star may have made millions as the hairy hunk but these days,things haven't been going well with the ladies. David's soon to be ex-wife Pamela Bach is fusing mad. This week, a judge ordered David Hasselhoff to stay 100 yards away from his estranged wife. (Awe, baby, why you gotta be that way?) There are also reports circulating that David said his former lady love may be in the way of some illegal substances in court papers. "I will not dignify my husband's remarks regarding my need for professional help due to drug abuse, which are not only patently untrue but libelous," she said. Ouch. It looks like this super sexy cat fight may be just heating up. Here's to divorce, Hasselhoff style.

Debra LaFave Engaged?

The most infamous hot middle school teacher is having a pretty good week. As charges were dropped against Debra LaFave, though still a registered sex offender, it seems that Ms. Lafave is going to start planning the next chapter of her life as a new bride. Though her first husband ditched her shortly after she admitted to having sex with a 14 year old male student, it looks like hubby number two has looked passed it. She is confirmed to be wearing the ring of her high school sweetie Andrew Beck.(See picture) (Nothing like finally winning over Ms.Popular from high school by finding her at a low point...)No wedding date has been set but we're sure they wont be having a destination wedding as she is under house arrest for the next three years. Ah, love and justice both appear to be blind in this one. Cheers!

(Deborah Laface, Deberah Lafavre)

Off Duty Cop Attacked At Reception

We can't explain most of the things people do at weddings. (You know, things like Grandma getting drunk and dancing on the buffet table...not like that happened to us or anything...) An off-duty police officer was attacked in Chicago over the weekend during his stint as a security guard at the reception. (What types of receptions need security? Either that's one strict guest list or you are Brangelina) The scuffle was allegedly involving two cousins Jason and George Terrell. They were charged with battery allegedly beating and choking the officer. The police chief Tim McCarthy said employees at the country club directed the officer to the women's restroom where Jason Terrell was allegedly urinating on the floor. Jason reportedly then pushed the officer against a wall, at which point the officer announced Terrell was under arrest, McCarthy said. Then at least six people attacked the officer. Jason's side of the story is that the men's bathroom was closed so he used the women's restroom. Alright. Fine. Sure. We believe you...

105 Year Old Man Looking For Wife Online

Who says that only creepy people in the first century of their life are the only ones able to lie about themselves to attract love online? A 105-year-old Chinese man is looking for a younger wife and may have found his new love in a 50-year-old potential woman whom he first spoke to this week on webcam. Gong Dunrua traveled to a local internet cage to meet Miss Zhang. After the lovey dovey web meeting, she had this to say to reporters "He is a good talker and a sensitive man who looks only 70. Apart from being hard of hearing, he is in good health." (Hey! That sounds just like Michael Douglas. Who would have thought?) We wish them the best of luck in their search for love in the constant gamble known as internet dating. Cheers!

Marcia Cross Finds Wedding Dress on Shoot

Ah, there are perks for the wealthy actresses who are headed down the aisle. For example, none of that pesky dress shopping in stores or even have designers pester you with their one of a kind designs. For "‘Desperate Housewives" actress Marcia Cross, she discovered her dream dress during a magazine shoot for the ultra stylish In Style Weddings magazine shoot. She loved the dress soooooo much that she called the designer Reem Acra (don't worry, we don't know who that is either, but they probably aren't sold at Wal Mart) to recreate the dress with her in mind. Not only does she love the dress, she has reportedly told the designer to make seven flower girl dresses. That's a record here at Wedding Heckler. We don't know seven little twerps...we mean little angels we would want in a wedding. Cross is said to be marrying her fiance Tom Mahoney some time this summer.

For the Very Special Bride

We at Wedding Heckler are proud to bring you the bridal dresses so beautiful, so daring, so...special... that we have scoured the globe to present them to you.

This gorgeous number appears to be a mix between a mermaid tail and a blue pen. The lucky bride to will appreciate giant flowers and a design that will make it nearly impossible to do anything but stand or...well...maybe swim? You will be the bell of the ball or the laughing stock of your own wedding, depending on your guests fashion tastes. Cheers!

Wedding Commercial...For What?

While bored in our free time we stumbled across this Japanese wedding commerical. We aren't sure what it's advertising as it is in a foreign language and we are too lazy to learn anything besides English. (We aren't against it...we're just not that bright) This clip seems to have something to do with a father-of-the-bride and the deep love for his...chihuahua? Enjoy!

Rocks On! Richard Dreyfuss Style

Rocks On!!
(For those couples ready to walk the plank)

Actor Richard Dreyfuss decided the third time was the charm when he married his Russian honeybug Svetlana Erokhin in Harrisonburg, Va. this past weekend. (Awe, the most romantic place on Earth next to Erie, PA.) Dreyfuss, 58, was in town to talk at James Madison University and it seems like they said 'what the heck' and took out a marriage license and exchanged vows at the magistrate's office. The university's s spokesman Andy Perrine reportedly told People magazine.
"We had no idea" they would be marrying, Perrine said. "Although one look at Svetlana and you wouldn't be surprised he wanted to marry her. She's beautiful and has a sultry Russian accent. She clearly is head over heels in love with Richard, who is captivatingly funny. They were like two young loves who couldn't seem to get enough of each other." Well yeah, she's young, beautiful and Russian and he's...well..he has an Oscar. Cheers!

(Richard Dryfuss, Richrd drifuss)

Couple to Wed for a Combined 13th Time

Marriage is a lifetime commitment to most people...or at least they tell themselves that at the time. But what if between you and your future spouse you had 12 failed marriages behind you. That's right 12. A full dozen marriages have gone down in flames before they came together. Some people like Bob Francis still believes he has found his soul mate. During his 67th birthday celebration in Singapore last weekend, he popped the question to his gal pal of only about 6 weeks, Anna Vonverg. "I have finally found the one," Francis smiles. The groom has five disastrous marriages behind him while the bride has seven failed attempts at matrimony in her past. That makes their union lucky number 13. But the wedding won't be traditional as the bride thinks "A white wedding dress would be a bit tacky." (Really, ya think?!?) The couple plan to start marriage number 13 in May after their intimate garden ceremony. Cheers!

Lindsay Lohan Wants Quickie Wedding

Though Lindsay Lohan is only 19 years old and single, she already has her wedding planned out. She recently said she would love to follow in the shocking footsteps of former pop tart Britney Spears and have a quickie marriage in Vegas. (Anyone who thinks that anything Ms. Spears has done is a good idea needs some help...soon...). She just wants to know what marriage feels like for a few minutes. Lohan reportedly explained "Marriage is a big deal, but who's to say I'm not going to pull a 'Vegas' and get married just to get married and see what it's like for a minute?" Okay, getting married isn't like going on a roller coaster or something. I don't think it feels like anything...well.. except for the 20 shots of tequila that lead up to the quickie wedding in Las Vegas. We'll just have to see where the Lohan train of disaster takes us next.

This Could be it For Brangelina!!!

Brangelina Watch: Day 60

Our finely tuned senses are awaiting word that the latest rumors of impending nuptials for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. The latest rumor that has caught fire this week is that the fabulous and beautiful couple is going to tie the knot at George Clooney’s Italian villa. It may even be this weekend! (Ah! We're soexistedd...we won't be able to sleep at all. It's like Christmas.) This time Brad's rep has stayed quiet. In addition, reports are surfacing that Brangelina may be married by the mayor of Laglio, Italy Giuseppe Mantero.

For those of you who like to keep your options open on rumors, the second possibility is that the star struck couple will wed in a hotel ceremony in the nearby town of Cernobbio. A spokes woman for the hotel says there weren't any guests currently booked under Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie. Well, we could have told you that! They're probably going under the name Brangelina as they are really just one person now. These people aren't great investigative reports now aren't they?

Rocks Off! for Phil Collins

Rocks Off!
(When You Are Ready to Tell Your Spouse to Shove It)

Ahh, things cannot always end up the way you want it to. It doesn't look like Phil Collins and his wife Orianne could work out their differences as they announced that they are splitting after six years of marriage. (Thats like...30 rock star years!) This is the third failed marriage for the famous singer. But don't cry for Collins, he'll keep his residence in Switzerland. Maybe Phil Collins and David Hasselhoff can party it down when he visits his fans in Germany. (Ah, that sexy duo would leave European women defenseless to their charms.) We can hope...

Is TomKat Married?

Though the date has officially been set for the fourth of July, reports are surfacing that Tom Cruise and fiancee Katie Holmes reportedly swapped rings in a Scientology ceremony last July around Tom's birthday.(What is with this man and celebrating things around his birthday? Are presents not enough?)The allegedly held the service aboard a Scientology ship during a cruise to Aruba to celebrate the big man's birthday last year. The rings were reportedly adorned with the triangular Scientology symbol. The British newspaper The Sun is reported it's source as cooing "Katie wore a flowing white dress and Tom was in a black suit as they exchanged rings during the brief 30-minute ceremony." Non of Katie's family was there but John Travolta was. (That's all who really needs to be at your wedding right? He's listed as a top 10 essential in bridal magazines too!) But Cruise's people are saying "All I can say is they are not married in any sense of the word." Hey, stranger things have happened.

Drunken Officer Shoots Groom at Wedding

There are some easy ways to tell when your wedding has gone horribly wrong. Reason #67 is when the groom is shot by a drunken police officer at his own wedding. A groom in Cambodia is resting comfortably today after being accidentally shot at his own wedding after he tried to intervene in an argument between a drunken police officer and a slow waitress. What was the indignation that the policeman couldn't stand for? The waitress apparently didn't bring him lemon juice which was to add zest to his wedding meal. (That's it! We hate when waitresses ignore our requests for citrus! No more we say!) Officer Bun Toan pulled out his K-54 handgun on her to speed her up (Oh yeah, that always helps the service at Steak and Shake.) Then Officer Toan and the groom got into a scuffle where he was wounded by the gun wielding drunkard. Although details weren't provided at what the possible penalties would be for the surly officer, police describe him as "extremely impolite." That's the biggest understatement since the phrase 'Kevin Federline could be bad for Britney Spears career.' Who knew?

Rocks On! Desperate Housewives Style

Rocks On!!
(For those couples ready to walk the plank)

Who is fabulous enough to have two fiances in one year? Why it's Nicollete Sheridan! Hurray! In the five or so months since she broke off her earlier engagement to some guy named Nicklas Solderblom. But this time, this time it's for real with extra hunky music sensation Michael Bolton. (We were so worried that the Desperate Housewives star would die alone...So beautiful...so cursed!) The tall blonde couple first dated in the 90's when Michael was stricken with long locks of frizzy hair and the bride was a relatively unknown pretty girl. They have been doing interviews together and flaunting their love like Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise. (Ooo, and we never get sick of their love story...) Let's see how long it takes this reunited couple to get married...or breakup. Either one is fine with us. Cheers!

(Micheal, Nicolette, Michel Boltin)

Rocks On! Jack Black Style

Jack Black eloped with his now wife Tanya Haden according to People magazine. Who would have thought this perpetually funny guy would want the old ball and chain. His new wife is a musician and he is also part of the comedy band Tenacious D. The "King Kong" star met his lady love in high school but didn't start dating until early 2005. They're dropping like flies today. We don't know what to say except we pray from them all! ::shakes fist:: Arg. Cheers!

Nude Wedding Photos the Rage in China

The age of the internet has ushered in an era of exhibitionism, you know, people showing off what their momma gave them in various photos and videos. (It's as high class as a drunk Paris Hilton at a strip club.) Well, the trend seems to have seeped into the world of wedding photography in the formerly ultra conservative China. Instead of the stuffy wedding photos featured next to ads for grocery stores in Sunday's paper (you know, the Seymour-Butts couple who just can't wait to get married...) the newlyweds are having nude pictures of them taken but Ma and Pa don't approve. "Some photo studios are just going too far. They allow young women to have their photos taken in bikinis or with nothing on at all," said an irate woman "I hope the authorities will do something." We personally hope they confiscate all of the pictures and make them available to the public...just to teach them a lesson.

Michael Douglas on Brangelina

Michael Douglas has been out of the press for a while so I guess it was about time for him to come down from his high horse and criticize the rest of Hollywood. The 61 year old former ladies man questioned short lived Hollywood marriage such as the disaster-filled four month marriage of Renee Zellweger to Kenny Chesney and the seemingly instant relations of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Though this old wise man has many thoughts on life, we are lucky enough that he decided to share them with GQ magazine. He shared his infinite wisdom on the 'Brangelina' relationship "“I don'’t know about Brad Pitt leaving that beautiful woman to go hold orphans for Angelina. I mean how long is that going to last?" Thanks Grandpa Douglas for that wonderful relationship advice. Sometimes we just stare at his picture and hope he will grant us wisdom. Oh wait...that's not Michael Douglas. That must be his son. Our mistake!

(Michel Douglass)

The Largest Wedding Party Ever

We were looking through some video clips and stumbled upon this one. We aren't sure where the clip is from but at first it may seem like a sweet little wedding...but keep watching. There are so many members in the wedding that you don't even get to see the entrance of the bride! How was there anyone left to watch the wedding. See for yourself.

Rocks On! Indiana Jones Style

Rocks On!!
(For those couples ready to walk the plank)

Reports have surfaced in In Touch Weekly that Harrison Ford has popped the question to his longtime stick figure...errr...Calista Flockhart. Ironically, for the woman who is not known for her hearty appetite, the former Indiana Jones reportedly hid a two-carat diamon engagement ring in a bag full of croissants. Her publicist insists the story isn't true, but only time will tell if this couple will make it down the aisle or will stay in a weird state of matrimonial ambiguity. (Brangelina anyone?) Cheers!

(colista flockheart, Harison)

Blind Couple Wed at Yankee Stadium

Who says baseball and love don't mix? There have been stories of people getting married at ballparks before. The traditional hardcore sports fan marrying their beloved second love (usually their spouse...Sometimes their beer...)with the ballpark organist playing 'Here Comes the Bride'. This time there was a little ironic twist. The 67-year-old groom, Ed Lucas is a radio baseball reporter who was blinded as a kid when he was hit between the eyes by a line drive. (Nothing like a life changing tragedy to make ya fall in love with the game even more.) He and his 51 year old fiancee, also blind, wed at home plate. (see wedding picture) This is the first wedding actually held on Yankee field. Nothin' like a tear jerker to remember what's really important in life...professional sports. Cheers!

Are Brad and Angelina Married?

Brangelina Wedding Watch Day 50

More news about the couple everyone wants to know about (no, not more about Tom and Katie. Their craziness is overwhelming, even for us) Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (or Brangelina to those of us who follow their relationship like the Yankees). Someone has reportedly spilled the beans that Brangelina has already married in a secret ceremony. Rumors started after the pregnant Jolie was spotted in pictures wearing a gold band in Paris. (Geez, can't celebrities wear jewelry in peace? ...obviously not...) Well, the adorable couple will be making way for their unimaginably adorable baby to be born in a few short months. (A baby so adorable peasants will be blinded by it's beauty!) So there is your latest fix of Brangelina goodness. Cheers!

Flipper's New Bride

Flipper made an entire generation fall in love with dolphins, our intelligent and adorable underwater friends. But like everything else, someone had to take things a little too far. A British tourist named Sharon Tendler made her dreams come true by "marrying" her dolphin sweet heart who is 35 years old, six years younger than her.(Ah, these Atlantic/December romances never last...) Sharon has been visiting her love several times a year for 15 years and finally got the courage to ask his training for his flipper in marriage, and he agreed. The bride walked down the dock wearing a traditional white dress as her groom waited in the water. After the ceremony, some fish were tossed in the water so she could swim away with her new...err..husband. The bride was quoted as saying "I made a dream come true. And I am not a pervert." Didn't Prince Charming say that at the end of Cinderella? Ah, dreams can come true.

For the Very Special Bride

We at Wedding Heckler are proud to bring you the bridal dresses so beautiful, so daring, so...special... that we have scoured the globe to present them to you.

When looking at this truly unique gown, we could help but think of jellyfish tentacles. For the woman who wants to shine on her day in a bubble gum pink but wants the fear and terror that can only come from that 'real' jellyfish look, this dress is for you. Be as poisonous as you are fabulous on your big day. Cheers!

Till Death Do Us Part...or Tomorrow...Whichever Comes First

Imagine spending countless amounts of time and energy planning the perfect wedding, only to have your husband die the morning after the ceremony. (Ooo the irony of the statement 'till death do us part' runs thick with this one.) Paul Healey, 31 met his untimely death on Saturday, the morning after he married his sweetheart of seven years Jayne Williams, 26. The groom was said to be in failing health but no specifics were given and it is not being treated as a suspicious death (From looking at the picture of the happy couple, several potential medical conditions came to mind.)The dearly departed groom was described by friends as "...a larger than life character and touched a lot of people's lives." May he rest in peace.

Rocks On! D-List Celebrity Style

Rocks On!
(For those couples ready to walk the plank)

How much of a D-list celebrity do you have to be that you get married in January, release a press statement in February and no one notices till March? Well, it seems to be the case for Bethany Joy Lenz. She plays Haley James Scott on The WB drama "One Tree Hill." (Better known co-stars are the quickly married and divorced couple Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray.) She announced that she married equally unknown Michael Galeotti a musician on January 1, 2006 on her online journal at Myspace.com on February 12th. (Yeah...it's March and no one noticed till this week...she must be a big deal!) Well, if they couple has a fiery divorce, we bet the media will be on it like Paris Hilton on a Greek Billionaire. Anyways...Cheers!

Runaway Bride Bobble Heads Going Fast!

The Gwinnett Gladiators, a minor league hockey team out of of Duluth, Georgia, decided to capitalize on their hometown's most infamous resident, the Runaway Bride Jennifer Wilbanks. With bobble head doll giveaways as synonymous with hockey as broken teeth and drunken grandma fist fights, the team decided to give away the Runaway Bride bobblehead dolls to the first 1,000 people through the door at their Sunday game. The bobble head doll is equipped with a white veil, brown hair and her "Adios" running shoes and a sweatshirt saying I heat Duluth. (See picture) The dolls were gone in less than 10 minutes. Of course, the minor league team made sure to name the trinket, and we kid you not, the "Runaway Bride Any Similarity to Actual Persons is Unintended and Purely Coincidental" Bobblehead Doll. Somehow, class and hockey always come together in this crazy world.

Zeta-Jones Wedding Opps

Though Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas have been married for years, Ms. Zeta-Jones is sharing a rather embarrassing detail about their super private nuptials.(WARNING: Potential human flaws revealed...) The multi-millionaire former playboy Douglas planned on wearing an old suit to his wedding that he had worn in the movie A Perfect Murder two years earlier. To top it off, the two year old suit didn't even fit the former heart throb! The bride found out about his penny-pinching plan 3 days before the wedding. She insisted he get a new tuxedo right away because she was afraid it picked up bad vibes from the movie. (Ha! We want to see what bad movie jinx on a marriage. Does that mean the marriage would be full of cheesy lines and plot holes?)She convinced him to get a new one for the wedding and the rest of the story is creepy Hollywood marriage history.

Groom-to-Be Attacks Matchmaker

Some men just want to get married so badly, even if they don't admit it right away. (We laugh at the ole ball and chain...until we get lonely...you know to much now...) Well, a man allegedly attacked a security guard with a knife after the botched deal to bring a foreign bride to him) The security guard, Lee Teong Boon, 38, had promised Wong Heng San, 33, that he would arrange for a relative from Indonesia to come to Singapore to marry him. The man spent lots of money to bring his bride-to-be to the country but once she got to Singapore he discovered the girl was under 21 and needed written consent of her parents to marry. Believing he had been fooled, Wong thought he had been made a fool but instead of talking to Lee to try and settle the misunderstanding...he took things in the other direction. (And we like it that way!) Wong and a friend attacked Lee with a kitchen knife and injured him in the right shoulder. Though he may have felt better, Wong is still without a bride and is now spending two years in jail. (No woman is ever worth it...now leave us alone...we need to sit in the corner and cry ::sniff sniff::)

Brangelina Wedding Watch Day 46

The gossip surrounding the possible wedding of the uber gorgeous celebrity couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt has reached nearly ridiculous heights. (As soon as they report the ceremony will be conducted by a 60 foot ape in a tutu...we'll know it's been overdone...but until then...)The ever world conscious Jolie has reportedly sent her stylist to find her a wedding dress....at Goodwill. According to the Daily Star, her stylist was desperate to dress the bride to be but was a slightly disappointed when she wanted a second hand gown. Jolie hopes a second hand gown will bring exposure to the charity. (Awe, the alleged home wreaker has a heart of gold...)

Poker Couple Ties The Knot in Poker Style

Jackie Johnson and Gary Suffir are an average couple who met playing an all American game, poker. But their chance meeting at partypoker.com in a $30 Omaha game after she backed him up in an online poker brawl meant true love. (Ah, addictions are always a great way to start a marriage...)After a year of courtship, the couple is getting married at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas and hosted by the poker website on March 7th with world famous ambassador Mike Sexton will be a witness to the super classy affair. The couple hopes for a full house soon. (Ha ha ha..We can be funny like the news guys too!)Keeping with the poker theme, the couple says it hopes to name their first child Chip if it's a boy and Queenie if it's a girl. Wow, they're a creative couple too...we're impressed. Cheers!

Ebay Wedding Dress Victim Out $2,400

Many brides shell out big bucks on Ebay looking for a deal of a lifetime (We like to spend our money on Ebay buying the bizarre foods that look like people.) Though most transactions go smoothly, there are those weasels in the grass preying on the bridezilla guinea pig. Blakely Smith just didn't get scammed, she got taunted! Smith had always dreamed of a Monique Lhuillier wedding gown, the latest in celebrity gowns, but didn't have enough money to pay $5000+ for one so she went to her neighborhood friendly Ebay for a good old fashioned deal. What she found was a good old fashioned snake oil salesman. After paying $2,400 for the gown outside of Ebay, she failed to receive her beloved dress. When she contacted the seller 'Kate' was less than sympathetic saying "sorry for that, it's nothing personal. ... It's what I do, and it pays well." The add insult to injury she told Smith that Ebay was like the food chain. "I was the predator, you were the prey." (We don't recall the food chain in nature including bear scamming money from a squirrel, but biology wasn't our strongest subject...)There are no leads yet on the scammer but she is suspected to be wearing a black and white stripped suit and a mask carrying a bag with a money sign on it. (Either that or a bear with a picnic basket.)

TomKat Sets a Wedding Date...Finally

So, you've placed your bets on the wedding of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise and the gossip columnists are already sharpening their daggers for an anticipated break up. Amid the compulsive gambling and the daily break up rumors, the happy couple has reportedly leaked their wedding date, July 4, 2006. (It'll be a happy Independence Day for all...oh wait...) It will reportedly be a four day event that will take place the same week as the groom's 44th birthday. Their unborn babe will be 3 months old...too young to partake in the festivities, yet old enough to throw up at it.
