"Wedding is an event that requires handholding." I'd prefer to delegate. LOL. Actually, I think that this idea is a natural for the Internet. Like you, I don't expect this one to blow the roof off. There is an interesting article on Raging Bull: ragingbull.com

I think you are wrong about no one wanting to plan their wedding on the web. My sister and a friend just married recently. They used the web EXTENSIVELY for planning and ideas - from choosing gowns to ordering customized favors, finding a photographer, planning the honeymoon etc. The wedding business is HUGE. And today's working women do NOT have time to run around to hundreds of places to shop for all the wedding needs. My friend did it from her desk at lunchtime as well as late in the evening. It was there use of the web for planning that got me interested in this IPO.
