My favorite anime so far was School Rumble, because I loved the comedy and the characters, but I wish the romance was more fulfilled. I also liked Seto no Hanayome, but had the same complaints.

Is there any anime that has a good balance of light-hearted comedy with the romance of a series like, say, Suzuka?

Besides the three named, I have seen Love Hina, Spice and Wolf, Oreimo, and Negima

I'm not a romance nut, but I found Toradora to be a fantastic shounen romance anime. When I first watched it, the first few episodes didn't really signify anything special, but the series just kept on getting progressively better all the way to the end. I just loved the characters, and there are many strongly emotional scenes as well as humorous moments. The animation by JC Staff perfectly expresses the intense emotions of the characters. This was a pleasant surprise for me, and I hope you can enjoy it as well.

Wow, thanks a lot! I'm on episode 10 of Toradora, and I think I can say I'm quite hooked!
