I should probably know this but I don't so I am going to ask....what is the wedding of the year? I understand that it is an event hosted by LIweddings but I am not sure I understand the concept and what goes on. Can someone fill me in?

Do they choose a random bride and groom to get married on that day?

The bride and groom and bridal party are all LIW members from the previous year. So for the 2010 TWOTY, all of the BP and bride and groom will be '09ers.

Think of it as a marketing campaign for vendors to show their stuff... but through a mock wedding rather than just a bridal show.

Re: TWOTY??
But is there one Bride and Groom? Do they actually get married that day in front of the LIWeddings members and their families? I just don't get it.

Yes, one bride, one groom. But no, they don't actually get married that day. They are already married. So next year's TWOTY bride and groom will be a couple that got married this year (2009) and the bride is a member here on LIW.
It's a mock wedding, not a real wedding.

Last year the bride had 2 dresses. One for the ceremony and one for the reception. Not her original wedding dress though. From what I understand, its on loan from a vendor (I believe it was Bridal Reflections last year).

do they have it fitted and whatnot for her? Thats crazy. Wouldn't it be weird to put a wedding dress back on...

You say you want to be a part of it and then they pull names out of a hat pretty much.
