When Lauren Bush walks down the aisle on Sunday, don’t expect to see former president George Bush. George H.W. Bush and his wife, Barbara, will not be attending their granddaughter’s wedding.

The Daily Caller reports that George and Barbara won’t be attending the wedding because of the ceremony’s location. The Lauren Bush wedding is being held at a ranch in Colorado, and the Bush elders say the high altitude would be detrimental to their health.

But according to SheKnows.com, the altitude might not be the only reason that George and Barbara Bush won’t be attending. Lauren’s mother Sharron had a messy divorce with George W.’s brother, Neil. Apparently the two sides of the family haven’t reconciled yet.

The 27 year old bride is the niece of former president George W. Bush. A spokesman for the former president declined to comment on whether or not Bush had RSVP’d.

Lauren is marrying David Lauren, the son of fashion designer Ralph Lauren. So will she change her name to Lauren Lauren?

Lauren Bush told Harper’s Bazaar.

“I think it will be Lauren Bush-Lauren. That’s not final, but I think it’s nice to have the same name as your husband. I am sort of old-fashioned in that way.”

According to CBS, the Lauren Bush Wedding will be a black tie event, but with a western twist. The rehearsal dinner is planned for Saturday after a softball game, the wedding will be Sunday, and a rodeo will follow on Monday.

George H.W. Bush may not want to reconcile with the other side of the family, but how could he pass up a rodeo?

Dylan Lauren, owner of the celebrity favorite Dylan’s Candy Bar stores wed her fiance, hedge fund manager Paul Arrouet on Saturday during a private ceremony that took place at her parent’s Bedford, N.Y. estate.

Lauren, the daughter of famed designer Ralph Lauren wore a dress designed by her famous father.

A source close to the couple told PEOPLE:

“The evening was certainly an affair to remember,” while adding, “Every detail embodied the couple from the design of place cards to the place settings to the music and, of course, to the dessert bar. It was a truly special evening. The couple couldn’t be more in love with one another.”

As any guest of Lauren would expect there was plenty of sweets on hand for the wedding, including a Strawberry cheesecake and banana splits.

Did you see the badly photoshopped Ralph Lauren ad making the rounds on the internet last week?

If you missed it, the model in the ad had been clearly edited- so much so that her pelvis appeared smaller than her head. While Ralph Lauren (the company) attempted to strong arm the image off the blogosphere, BoingBoing held their ground to use the image under fair use.

…instead of responding to their legal threat by suppressing our criticism of their marketing images, we’re gonna mock them. Hence this post.

As Wendy Seltzer from the Chilling Effects project said, “Sounds like a pretty solid fair use case to me. If criticism diminishes its effectiveness, that’s different from the market substitution copyright protects against. And I’ve rarely seen a thinner DMCA form-letter.”

While the company claimed that the image was mistakenly released by a Japanese department store, Filippa Hamilton, the 23-year old French model, told press that Ralph Lauren had fired her for being overweight. At 23, 5’10″ and 120 lbs., Hamilton’s face is familiar to anyone who has seen Ralph Lauren print ads in recent years, but even at her abnormally low weight, the company claims she’s too fat to fit into their clothes. Ralph Lauren admits that Hamilton was fired, explaining the termination came “as a result of her inability to meet the obligations under her contract with us.”

Hamilton didn’t mince words in her reaction to the termination of her contract:

Hamilton, who had modeled for the designer since 2002, said in response: “I think they owe American women an apology, a big apology; I’m very proud of what I look like, and I think a role model should look healthy.”
