Is she taking into account the fact that not everyone will go? Just a thought.
Unless she already has RSVP's. My family wasn't really good about responding so I planned for 3/4 of the guest list to show up. About 1/2 did so we were all good.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Astronauts should not have swords. Not with fabric pressure suits.
I think I missed something, unless someone's having a Rennaisance-themed wedding in space, in which case I heartily approve and demand to be invited.

Thrive to spite them
One thing I noticed at all my relatives weddings -- no accomidations were made for vegetarians. Now, there are only 3 cousins who are, but at these weddings the only food available was fruit and veggies and dip.
One wedding had little quiches some with just cheese but that was it. The other had some veggie things, but all with some kind of meat. Like the procuitto wrapped asparagus.

Swords for astronauts, titanium chainmail for all!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If I get married, I want to have a Rennaisance-themed wedding on Mars. I'll dress up like Ming the Merciless.

Excellent question. Unless she's just looking for a shoulder to cry on. I don't let people cry on my shoulders who have the solution to their problems.
Damn, that monkey story is driving me crazy. I'm going to email the news website and complain about the crappy reporting.

For orthodox couples, there are often gatherings on the week after the wedding, called "sheva brakhot" ("sheva" = 7, "brakhot" = blessings), which are meals that have to have at least 10 men (= "minyan"), in which 7 blessings are said aloud, for the new couple.
Before my wedding I was trying to explain to our office manager about the sheva brachot and why we weren't taking an immediate honeymoon, and she was a little surprised that anyone would want to spend a week after the wedding with their family and friends. But it really is a lot of fun, and you don't feel as much pressure at the wedding to socialize with everyone because you have like six more nights of "receptions."

How about "Hire a stripper and both the bride and I will kill you in a fun and entertaining way. For us. For you, maybe not so fun."
Yeah, 'cause nobody'd ever take that as a challenge. Or possibly your friends are different than mine.
