bitbucket offers a free plan that allows you to have unlimited private and public repositories shared between 5 users maximum. You would need to use Mercurial or Subversion to manage the files though, but if you're familiar with source control tools it should be easy enough.
Pros
Unlimited space and repositories
Integrates with other services (ex: with ...

One possible solution is to use a combination of Google Apps.
Google Site for the public view and wiki
Google Code for code sharing, issue tracking, tasks
Google Docs for formal documentation
Google Groups
You can get very creative with this. Good luck.

Regarding question no. 1, as per Trello's page on Privacy, Security and Data:
Free... for how long?
Trello is free forever. We may add pay-only features in the future, but everything that's free today will be free tomorrow and forever.
Regarding question no. 4, it's subjective and thus not fit with the StackExchange policy on questions type. See ...

I just went through an exhaustive search and trial of the tools out there (about two dozen or so) that include most of what you're looking for plus a few more, such as horizontal 'swimlanes' or pipelines. I was also looking for customizable columns, which is surprisingly rare, open RESTful APIs, integration with Google Apps, esp. gmail, built on a solid ...

I agree with your friend about not dividing up into separate boards by type of job.
With your examples such as 'Design ideas' etc, I think they really do fit naturally within different lists on the same Board. It's exactly the sort of usage that Joel demoed in multiple videos about Trello.
The only thing I can think of, to help manage very long lists, is ...

I have a free SVN account on a site called Unfuddle. Works great with both Eclipse and Visual Studio. They also provide GIT and Trac support. While their free plan is good enough for me, most of their plans look quite affordable if you have a team.

Daily Backups
Daily backups of all customer data.

I'm a big fan of http://www.trackmyhours.com.
They are always updating based on user requests, and since they aren't a huge player, the guys who run it seems to respond to feature requests quickly and efficiently. We currently manage 3 consultants, and 6 employees using the software, not sure if its effective for bigger teams than that... but definitely ...

Have a look at trac as a issue/bug tracker tool, it is very similar to redmine (or so I have heard, never tried redmine). It supports integration with MediaWiki and SVN, which together is quite a powerful combination.
Have a look at Things if you are looking for a personal todo list manager. It is the best todo manager out there, and well worth its cost.

A primary candidate is SourceForge.
Update: As at01 points out, SourceForge doesn’t have an integrated wiki. I believe it used to have Wikispaces integrated but that was apparently removed in July 2009. To further answer the question, this comparison table might help, although it needs verifying, because it is wrong in respect of the SourceForge wiki ...

You can link notes in Wiki style
You can permission access to notes
You can share notes publicly or privately
Evernote also just launched their business version which might provide some additional features to help manage your work ...

Being a big fan of productivity, I would recommend toodledo.com. While it's primarily a task management tool, it can be used for Project Management. Probably not for managing a complex software development, but perfect for a wedding.
From the budget point of view, you can use the Notebook feature to track associated costs. The Notebook also includes a ...

I'm not sure if it fully fits your needs, but have you checked pivotal tracker?
See here:

I've used it and quite enjoyed it, but I'm not doing pure "by the book" SCRUM

Hope this helps.

You can see their workload by selecting only their cards using the search/options tool in the right-hand sidebar. As far as their capacity, You could potentially add a board to specfically manage that metrics. AFAIK, there is no way to store that in trello; if that is an important aspect of how you are using trelly, there may exist better tools.
I suggest ...

Google Groups will allow you to send emails to any number of people. Those people can elect to receive each email, or a daily digest. Groups can be invite-only, and you can prevent other group members from sending email if you wish.
The emails are always viewable online later. If you always reply to the same subject line, they will be readable in one long ...

While it may not do all you want, you might be interested to check out Trello, which can be used for a variety of purposes. It can be used to assign people to projects, all them to add notes to them, etc. Plus it could be used for as a basic workflow system.
The system is more of a SaaS kind of offering, than something you can download and install.

Scope is effectively constrained by what you can see on the screen in a Trello board view. To maximize scope for a collaborative project, or to figure out when the board has reached a threshold that requires splitting it into two or more, the following approach may be helpful. [Note that boards can be copied and cards can (now) be moved to other boards.]

I have used SharePoint to solve that problem but unless you have a team of developers, I would not go down that road. I checked on AlternativeTo and there is a startup called TeamLab that may be just what you need. They even offer a Basecamp import feature. It is offerered as SaaS or Open Source software.

For an open source web app, I would suggest Trac. It even has a GIT Plugin. If you don't really care if it is open source and that somebody else is hosting it, I would highly suggest Github.

Project management software?
a simple web app that maps tasks, people and time.
You can try Redmine which has Gantt charts support.

You have the famous SourceForge as already stated by Mike.
You also have Codeplex, hosted by Microsoft (no restrictions on languages or tools though).
You have java.net for Java world only (don't know in which language your project will be written).
Then, as you didn't state the solution has to be free, you also have the good Jira Studio from Atlassian.
