Weddings are a time to revel in the celebration of newly sealed nuptials. No couple wants this mood interrupted by a cheesy wedding song. These songs can disrupt the flow of the dance floor or, even worse, completely empty it.

This week was filled with adventurous couples, from an incredible couple who rock-climbed 900 feet for a mountaintop ceremony to a daring pair who who rode jet packs into their beach wedding. We also were shocked by Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger's surprise engagement, and we couldn't help but follow Taylor Swift's wedding crashing debacle.   

If you've also had a busy week, catch up now on our hottest features this week!

Finally, a show that hits all the marks — real brides, real drama and a real budget!

TLC’s 'I Found The Gown' comes complete with all of the oohs, ahhs and tears we now expect from America’s brides-to-be. But what sets it apart from predecessor 'Say Yes to The Dress' is how it caters to brides whose wallets aren't quite Kleinfeld-ready.

The action takes place at VOWS, a Boston bridal outlet owned by Rick and Leslie DeAngelo. The duo keeps the store's racks stocked with about 800 designer wedding gowns — including Reem Acras and Vera Wangs — at seriously discounted prices between ($199 to $4,500). Top-notch consultants help the brides sift through the treasure pile to find the perfect dress at a perfect pricepoint. No ordering necessary: if their size is in, it's their's to take home that very day.

The catch? Sizes are limited, and the good ones can get snatched up faster than you can say “I do.”

Done right, a candy buffet becomes more than just a delicious favor for your guests; it becomes an eye-catching part of your wedding reception décor. 

But creating one isn't as simple as just buying a few bags of candy. To find out how to create the perfect color-coordinated buffet with the right amount of candy for your guests, we checked in with Nicole Carter from acandystore.com, an online bulk candy store organized by color, theme, brand, and flavor. Check out her advice below!

BG: How much candy do I need to buy?
Nicole Carter: Determining how much to buy is the biggest challenge. We've found people tend to overestimate the weight of candy. If I asked you what five pounds of M&M's looks like, what would be your guess? We have some helpful videos on our product pages to help show you what volumes of different candies equate to.

Not a fan of the classic French manicure? Here, nail expert and Custom Nail Solutions president Katie Saxton shares the hottest trends for the fall season. Which would you try for your wedding?

Double Reverse French Manicure
A modern twist on the French manicure, this elegant look features a dark color on the tips with the rest of the nail covered with a soft shimmer or a clear polish.   

Burgundy
This elegant shade is the go-to color for fall. Jazz it up with a thin line of sparkly polish.

Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail Color
Give your nails a 3-D look with this fun polish! After applying two coats, hold a magnet (included) over each nail for 10 seconds before the polish dries, which creates a raised effect. Then apply a top coat to lock in the shiny, multidimensional look.
