Leigh from Myriad Genii has some sage words of wisdom for this attempting to keep calm during the wedding planning process.

Brace yourself – another high profile wedding fair is coming to town. If you’re planning an Asian wedding, your Mrs will probably be chomping at the bit to attend the Asian Mela 2010. Billed as the UK’s biggest Asian wedding fair, there’s everything you need to plan your Big Day.

Sharing news of your engagement is a once-in-a-lifetime event, but nobody’s as excited about it as you are. Fact. Can Helen come to terms with this bombshell and who can answer the important question: how much wedding chat is too much wedding chat?

Pete ponders the vexed issue of whether flashy proposals are just to cover over the fear that she’ll say no and hands out some advice on picking the ring.

Apparently, 6% of proposals are conducted over the phone – we were so shocked that we demanded Mark Powell go and investigate and come up with an overly prescriptive list of dos and donts for phoning in your proposal.

Joel unburdens himself of some hatred: he hates women’s wedding magazines, one in particular.

Feast your pork pies (eyes) on this beauty – it’s a Wedding Pork Pie, fit for the top table of any marriage.

Fancy getting down and dirty during your wedding ceremony? One mucky British couple did exactly that when they tied the knot in a New Zealand mud pool.

Is the new Pimp My Bride service viral, venal or just vile?

Proposals eh?! Is there anything more terrifying – and, yes, I do mean for both parties. Will you get it right? Will the ring fit? Will she even say yes? It’s certainly a minefield and once it’s all over, is it just a bit of an anticlimax?
