Being a bride-to-be is a wonderful and exciting time in someone’s life. Whether you’ve always dreamed of your perfect wedding -– the dress, the colors, location, flowers, and so on and so on — or you have just been thrusted into the throws of making creative decisions everywhere you turn, now is the time for you to plan one of the biggest events of your life and you need to figure out how to best represent you and your future hubby in this celebration.
All that being said, it feels a bit overwhelming. Each bride feels it at some point –whether its the first time you dress shopped and you nearly suffocated in a cloud of white fabrics you never knew existed, or when you start visiting venues and realize that you’ll never be able to pick just one (the same goes for photographer, flowers, foods, and pretty much everything else associated with your big day), or when you meet with your bridesmaids and realize that there is a dress in every style and color imaginable to choose from. The bottom line is that wedding decisions can be stressful. But what is one of the most wonderful things about being a bride today is the resources that you have right at your fingertips.
The Internet offers many great resources for planning a wedding. Right now, it seems that one of the biggest sites out there is Pinterest. This Web site serves as an online pinboard for users to mark Web sites by photos of anything from around the web. Not only for weddings, Pinterest boards can hold food recipes, exercises, clothing pieces, arts and crafts, basically everything you can imagine. However, this site seems to be overwhelming popular amongst brides. From dress styles and designers to bridesmaids to colors to flowers to DIY projects, Pinterest stores ideas of all kinds for the bride-to-be. For the bride, this is a peak into every wedding idea out there and will really help her visualize what she wants. If you haven’t already, check it out and start an account (which is free…bonus!).
