New Media Frontiers: In Living Color?

I have decided to report in a new trend that may not be as much new as the fact that i am just finding out about it. While exploring remedies to a restricted guest list I was informed of a woman who had a wedding where the ceremony was broadcast online to other guests. Thinking this was a totally rare thing i set about finding how to DIY. What I found was that i was really out of the loop. There are several websites that allow Brides and Grooms to be to make a second wedding list and send out invites to a virtual wedding.
In other words guest can log in and watch the wedding in real-time since they can't be there. And if a guest misses it, no problem. The video is saved for a period of time to replay. What an absolutely neat idea!!! Now destination weddings seem more realistic, the remorseful Bride can dry her tears and give all her loved ones access to her special day even though the room capacity may object. The only catch is that (not yet at least) this wonderful option comes with a price. The prices are reasonable (except that one could really do all this stuff themselves if they had the knowhow. At Live Wedding Broadcast you can get a package for 10 guests for $100 and 2 hours of coverage, 25 guests for $150 and 2 hours, or 50 guests for $250 and 4 hours.

Who would have thought that media and technogoly would effects so many areas. Technology has reached out its fingertips and touched a bit of everyones world. It is so neat how technology and just a thought for a need to be fulfilled can totally rearrange an industry or a once common practice. In the case of weddings, they were once so traditional and maybe somewhat standard but now the options are endless. Brides and Planners have access to numerous supplies and resources and the DIY (Do-It-Yourself) logic has exploded.
