Newsgasm: Fox changes its Wedding plans - 
by Tabloid Baby
Fox is switching grooms at the altar when it comes to Spring weddings and Spring programming. It's just pulled the rug out from under the announced series The Wedding Album, which would have starred veteran Latin TV heartthrob Bruno Campos, and replaced it with a David E. Kelley rewrite they''re calling The Wedding Store-- for now.
Fox was reworking The Wedding Album when Kelley got wind of a potential opening, and blew the dust off an old project that ABC had rejected a couple of years ago. The DeMarco Affairs, another series that Kelley wrote in longhand on a yellow legal pad, became The Wedding Store.
The hour-long show is described as "a romantic comedy about a group of wedding planners dedicated to having their clients live happily ever after, or at least until they get to the parking lot! " According to the Fox exec who gave it a 13-episode greenlight, "The 'A' wedding stories serve as the lever that activates all the great character hijinks Kelley does so well!" Yes, he said "hijinks."
Kelley developed Wedding with Jason Katims of Friday Night Lights. Katim's involvement with the new series will depend on how quikjcly Friday Night Lights is cancelled. Kelley continues to work on the pilot for the ABC contender Life on Mars, the hijinks-heavy Boston Legal, and his marriage to Michelle Pfeiffer.
(Fun fact: The "E" in "David E. Kelley" stands for "Edward.")
