The Cutest Flower Girl Videos Gone Viral
This week, flower girl Claire Miller became an Internet sensation when a camera phone video was posted of her taking a catnap at the altar. In honor of the we-won’t-take-it trend started by Grace van Cutsem—the cutie who achieved worldwide fame when she covered her ears at Wills and Kates’ wedding—here are our favorite videos featuring feisty flower girls.
1. Flower Girl Gets Tired of Wedding and Snoozes Off
By “in good times and in bad,” she decided she had heard enough and toppled over in slow motion. (Let’s be honest—what wedding guest hasn’t fantasized about doing this at one point or another?)
2. Funny Flower Girls at Fall Wedding
This adorable chubby-cheeked tot doesn’t grasp the purpose of flower petals.
3. Bossy Flower Girl
A three-year-old shushes everyone from the photographer to the pastor.
Worried that the tiniest members of your bridal party will make this list? Prep in advance by doing a couple of practice runs before the big day, letting them try on their outfit in advance and packing their favorite toy or activity to keep them occupied before their debut. Consider letting them walk down the aisle without giving them a “job” to do, which could help eliminate some of the hysterics.
Astrologer Books Wedding Without a Groom
Anita Chakra Burtty had a premonition that something extraordinary was about to happen: She was about to meet her future husband. So the Sydney astrologist decided to go all in and pay for an April wedding—more than enough time to fall in love with her would-be groom, who she expects to bump into around October or November. “It’s not going to be a huge issue if I don’t get married on that day, but I know that I will,” she told Channel Nine’s A Current Affair.
Her conviction is so strong, she’s already made major planning decisions, including buying her dress, meeting with wedding vendors and creating a beachside barbecue theme (hope her hubby likes wings). Most surprisingly, her loved ones fully support her decision. They’re going to make the trek from England to Australia to attend, and her best friend, Jeremy, even changed his wedding date (note: to a bride he’s already found) so that it wouldn’t coincide with hers. “I wouldn’t be a good friend to Anita unless I believed in her and supported her,” he said.

Five Delicious Wedding Menu Ideas
Food is the number-one priority at my wedding: I believe that meals should be an experience, not just a mindless string of bites. Your wedding menu helps set the tone for the reception. The main focus for my husband Michael and I is to create a fun atmosphere, so we decided to build our party around Mexican cuisine. It encompasses all the flavors that Californians love—fresh, spicy, and full of flavor. You're sure to find disagreements about who does it best, but most San Diegans can agree that we capture that south-of-the-border essence pretty darn well.
Although I may not be Mexican myself, I've enjoyed eating Mexican food ever since I was a little girl. I have fond memories of Mom making quesadilla dinners for my brother and I, Dad taking us to a local taco shop every other Wednesday night, and even crossing the border into Tijuana to get authentic street tacos. Here's how I'm incorporating all of my Mexican favorites into the wedding menu.
1. Start the party with a kick. While Michael and I are busy taking photos, I thought it might be fun to serve plates of chips and guacamole to guests. We'll get the party started with margaritas (both blended and on the rocks), and micheladas for the folks who want to start slow. A michelada is beer mixed with either lime or tomato juice and a ton of spices.
