Weddings...Entertainment? Yes!

Has anyone else noticed that there are a ton of new wedding shows on TV. Of course, everyone knows about Bridezillas and Platinum Weddings, but there are two new shows that are loads of fun! Every bride-to-be should check them out.

The first one is called "Say Yes to the Dress". It is part documentary, part soap opera and totally entertaining. The show follows the day-to-day operations of a premier wedding salon, Kleinfeld Bridal. It's kind of therapeutic to watch, because its nice to see that everyone goes through the stress of picking a dress out. "Say Yes to the Dress" follows brides and the employees at Kleinfeld Bridal as they work to find the perfect dress. You get to see the interaction between the brides and their families, too.

The second one is called "Rock the Reception". On this show, two choreographers teach a bride and groom an awesome dance routine to do as an alternative to a traditional first dance. The choreographers are Tabatha and Napoleon, who have choreographed for Missy Elliott, Beyonce and Timbaland. They work with the couple (and usually the Maid of Honor and Best Man) to create a very fun and unique routine for a memorable first dance.

Both shows come on TLC on Tuesday nights starting at 8 p.m. I suggest them to anyone who is getting married...or, is married for that matter!
