* We love Green weddings. Weddings are an easy way, some say, to waste resources, but it’s not hard to turn them around and make them much more eco-friendly. In honor of World Sea Turtle Day, which is June 16, “the 237-suite Marquis Los Cabos resort introduces a new Green Wedding Package that includes eco-friendly décor, organic food, local Baja wine selections, Green Turn Down service, and, most excitingly, the opportunity to assist in the release of baby sea turtles.” We know many people who plan to some day help release baby sea turtles, but we’ve never thought of it as a wedding event. It does sound memorable, however, and watching those little babies waddle toward the ocean to begin their new life is a great metaphor for marriage!

* It was a super wedding. Literally. You see, Batman recently married Wonder Woman. The PowerPuff girls stood as the bride’s maids. The best man? Robin, of course. And none other than the Joker served as the officiant. Who needs tradition? Even the guests got in on this theme wedding! (Iron Man was there!) Extra! Extra! Read all about it! (Sorry; we couldn’t help ourselves.)

* We all know that planning a wedding consumes every bit of free time a bride has. (But that’s why brides need you guys - certified wedding and event coordinators - right?!) But did you know that 90 percent of brides to be plan their weddings at work? That’s right, one survey recently found that 9 out of 10 women use company time to plan their big day, but only a third of them think it negatively affects their work performance. Vendors report that lunchtime and Mondays are when they see the most traffic on their websites. Well, we guess that planning your wedding is one way to get over that Monday hump.

* We’re all about planning ahead, and you know that when planning a wedding it’s imperative that vendors and venues are booked well in advance of the big day. But this has to be one bride - if you can even call her that - who is taking the whole organized thing to a new level. You see, she has a venue. Her dream venue. And thus, she has a wedding date. But there’s one big kicker: She has no groom. And now she has a project, Project Husband, in which she’s marketing herself on TV and the Internet to find potential grooms. So far, she’s been on 46 dates. Who needs a dating service? It looks like all a single girl actually needs is a wedding date. “I’m really hopeful,” she said. “I will know in my heart who the right person is as I get closer to the date.“
