Whose Wedding is it Anyway....A Wedding Story....Til Death Do Us Part....For Better or For Worse...Bridezillas....Buff Brides....I could go on!

What do you think about all these shows on tv? I think wedding tv hit it's most popular point during Trista & Ryan's wedding, but it still seems to be in demand.

Do you watch any of these shows? Love 'em? Hate 'em? Want to be on one of 'em? What's your favorite?

I loved watching wedding story and the for better or for worse. I watched them mostly for ideas. I wish I had cable now so I could watch more.

I have seen a few episodes of the "a wedding story". But, I currently have no cable either. I watched just for ideas also.

I have noticed the increase in wedding related news! Star and Al's wedding, Britney Spears Wedding, etc. etc. etc.

Does brides read wedding news now-a-days? What types of news are you looking for; celebrity weddings, every-day-people weddings, general wedding news?

Onewed Networks has been talking about adding a wedding news section to its onewed.com site...any ideas of what you like to read about?

I have been watching "A Wedding Story" since after I got married 6 years ago on the 12th. I then saw how much better I could have done my own if I had the money, time or interest. But in the end I think mine went pretty well considering I didn't loose any sleep over an details until it was over.

I like " For better or for Worse " it is hillarious. That thes people have a week and yet still some things arent done with so many people.

FBOFW is on TLC, they have repeats on all the time. Here is the link to the site with more info on it:

Whose Wedding is it Anyway is my favorite show (love Mary Dann and Jeffrey what's his last name?) followed closely by FBOFW. I like FBOFW because it is very DIY and they usually show an interesting project or two. The weddings on there are anything but typical, and even when an idea sounds horrible, usually it comes out pretty nice!

My favorite episode so far has been the candy wedding episode.

Yes some of the ideas alone are way out there. But looks fine all together. I think some of them could be way more effective as just a party theme though.

I've watched "Wedding Story" on TLC for many, many years now - I'm hooked on that an "Baby Story". I now only get to watch them when I have the rare day that I'm sitting around at home....wish I had more of those days!!

I've never seen any of the other ones mentioned.

My favorite is a wedding Story for Ideas....but for more economical ideas I like For Better or for Worse.

I think they pretty entertaining shows. & so far my fav. celeb wedding is Jessica & Nick's....I Love how she had this theme of Roses everywhere, which is what I have always wanted...coincidently. but I am realizing that is a pretty expensive thing for me. I do still plan on incorporating roses but in a different cheaper way.


Like Hershey's Kisses Rose Bud's for favors, a custom made runner with roses printed on it. Roses for my girls boquets, & Roses for centerpieces. rose petals for the flower girls instead of popouri, & rose petals as part of the center pieces too. oh & roses in the flower girls hair, & my maid & matron of honor!! of coarse most of it will be fake but I founf an awesome lady that is just a genius when it comes to silk flowers.

but yeah....It's all for the ideas!!!

I watch Whose Wedding. As a matter of fact I just received a call from one of the producers wanting to know if I'd be interested in appearing. OF COURSE I WOULD! I'll keep you posted.

I love FBOFW. It has a lot of money saving ideas. I have been able to use some of the ideas in not only my wedding planning, but in a few friends weddings. It is great to see that beautiful weddings CAN be planned on a small budget.

I am not ashamed to say that I have used "A Wedding Story" to learn about different customs and traditions in wedding ceremonies. It has actually helped me be prepared for different ethnic and religious weddings.

I really enjoy watching "For Better or For Worse", but I definitely could NOT have given control of my wedding over to my family and friends. I guess I don't trust them that much. :roll:

I really wish I had more time to watch TV. Oh well...I guess I get the real thing almost every Saturday!

Well I work in a hotel where we have weddings every week. I can relate to the show Bridezillas (though that show doesn't show nearly how mean brides can really be). The rest of the shows are annoying because the brides so often act horribly and should be ashamed of themselves.
