a. Ted.com is pretty awesome. Basically, it's a collection of "talks" from TED conferences, all free on the internet. Speakers that you would never normally see- all available for your viewing pleasure. And they're not all serious. It actually gives you the option to find just funny videos, or beautiful videos. My advice, if you don't know where to start, is to view all the tags. If you click the link for talks at the top of the page, then "view all tags" at the bottom of the search options, it'll take you there. By viewing all the tags, you can zero in on what you really want to see or just see the wide range of topics the talks cover. You can find videos on robotics and faith, or magic and origami. While they don't have a tag specifically for weddings, I did find tags for love and relationships. I watched funny videos, touching videos, and more science-oriented videos. Having read some of her work when I was a grad student, anthropologist Helen Fisher was one of my favorite videos. In the video she discusses the science behind romantic love. I've embedded the video below or you can check it out on ted.com here.
P.S. If any of my fellow 23 Things participants are having trouble embedding their video, you have to click embed, copy the html code, and then paste it into your post in html mode. If you can't find how to change it into html mode, the button is in the top row of formatting tools, next to Compose. Once you embed the video, you can change it back to compose and the video and player should be there.
