WEDDING AUCTION
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP) - Kelly Gray isn't losing a bridesmaid
-- but she's gaining a sponsor for her wedding. The Virginia
hairdresser offered eBay bidders a chance to buy a spot in her
wedding party as a bridesmaid. The winning bid is from Dr Pepper
Snapple, which is contributing 10-grand to the wedding next April
19th and will supply the drinks. Gray may even get a bridesmaid out
of the deal, too. She says the company plans to launch a Web site

fiance Karl Gau came up with the auction idea, because they're
worried about paying for the wedding.
