Yes, it will work. It really helps with the weeds and is easy to walk on.

Yes, that will work well. If some weed seeds do set on top of the straw, they will pull up in a jiffy! It will also help conserve water.
In large areas, like paths or between shrubs I have done brown cardboard as well.

People are doubting me because it's a large garden. I say :-P~ to them. I'm about to go pick up some newspaper now.

I really appreciate wisdom of folks who have learned from their own experiences! Go with your gut :-) and if it doesn't work out, you'll know not to do that again. But it makes sense to do what you're suggesting :-)
