Hi Chris and the List!

     Friendly advice:  STRONGLY urge the soon to wed couple to find another pro!
If they still want you to bare the burden, work with them beforehand to
find out what their expectations are.

     Pro get it in writing.  Remember there are TWO mother-in-laws! Friends
are hard to come by and can be lost over some silly wedding photos.

                                        Cheers and good luck!
