Another guest of honor: The iPhone

If Greg wasn't marrying me, there's a good chance he'd propose to his iPhone. He uses it to check e-mail, navigate when we're lost, read Kindle e-books, watch baseball games with MLB.TV — pretty much everything except make a call. ;)

I'm not smelly; he does that with his hood when he's deep in thought, hehe!

Despite no service in Mexico, he brought it along — to read. Hello? Beach?!

And on our big day, I doubt he'll be able to put it away. I don't mind as long as he knows when to keep it tucked away and when to show it off, like in these gorgeous wedding photos:

We definitely need one of these!


We know our techy friends will have theirs too.

Wedding-day text? This makes me melt!


With the dawn of Apple's newest gadget, the iPad, at least one officiant is getting in on the action, too! Only in the Bay Area, home to Silicon Valley — though I gotta admit, it looks way slicker than a black portfolio.

I love that something so influential in our lives will make an appearance on our big day. Do you agree or think phones have no place at a wedding?

Robot performs wedding ceremony?

It's crazy but true! Greg found this gem this morning at Washingtonpost.com; there are photos too, of course.

My favorite parts of the article are that people get robots to hang out with elderly people or play baseball.

In terms of our officiant, we have a couple of ideas in the works, but now it's time to enjoy a nice Sunday in the city!

JK wedding dance video; Greg is late to the party once again



Okay, so, I consider myself a pretty technologically savvy person. But I am about 8 years behind the blogging trend, 2 years behind the Twitter trend, and 6 months behind the JK Wedding Entrance Dance viral video featuring Chris Brown's "Forever" trend.

While I don't have any aspirations for making something that will generate 41 million hits on YouTube, I love how they've made the ceremony their own. A wedding is about uniting the bride and groom, but it's also slightly more than that. It's a show: our show, done our way. Modern couples shouldn't be afraid to break away from tradition and do something slightly zany.

Interestingly, the couple's Web site now accepts donations for domestic violence, after the Chris Brown/Rihanna incident.
