Cutting Down the Wedding Guest List

@huffpostwedding Have fun with it! Put guests on the bubble in 2 groups. Roll dice, beer pong, thumb wrestle. Winner picks from their pile!

Wedding Rings: Stackable Wedding Bands

The hottest trend right now in Wedding Rings is stackable wedding bands. Unlike the traditional single wedding band, stackable wedding bands are made of multiple smaller bands that are worn in sets of two to four. They can be similar in design and style or each one unique that is styled to work well together. It's a fun way to add a little variety to the standard wedding ring.

HuffPost Weddings has a nice gallery of images available to browse through.

Would you wear stackable wedding bands or go for the more traditional single band?

Wedding Etiquette: Guests Sharing of Wedding Photos

With everyone nowadays having cell phones with Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Instagram, etc. on there, it's almost too easy to take a pic or post a comment. Which brings us to the topic of wedding etiquette and social media sharing at weddings.

The "Today Show" has an informative video interviewing wedding etiquette expert Amber Harrison of Wedding Paper Divas. As a Wedding DJ, I have seen many guests staring at their phones instead of enjoying the action.

Check out the video and let us know your thoughts on social media sharing at weddings.
