Planning a wedding is one of the most exciting — and sometimes the most stressful — times of your life. But the joy of sharing your love with friends and family makes all the hard work more than worth the effort. We think planning a wedding should be a harmonious and fun time. From selecting wedding invitations and building a wedding website to trying on wedding dresses and indulging in different cake options, your experience should be one you look back on fondly.

Paper invites take a long time to select and design, and it can be hard to track down responses from some of your less-than-timely guests. That’s where digital wedding invitations come in. Here, we’ll show you the advantages of using digital wedding invites and share some stunning examples you can use to celebrate your love in style. read more…

Small weddings can make a big impact — on you and your partner, your guests, your photos, and, it must be said, your open bar. With an intimate ceremony, you have more space — literally, figuratively, and financially — to incorporate memorable details than you would with a larger wedding.
If you always dreamt of an intimate wedding with your closest friends and family members, we have plenty of small wedding ideas to help make your day memorable. From over-the-top venues to drool-worthy menus to cocktail options that will have even the best mixologists raising eyebrows, you can pull off a lot with very little. read more…
Next to cake tasting, picking out gifts for your registry might be the most enjoyable part of the wedding planning process.
As an engaged couple, we hope you thoroughly enjoy selecting items for your registry, and we encourage you to have fun with it. At what other point in your life will you be able to hand-select dozens of potential gifts?
When piecing together your registry, remember to include items at a number of different price points. Ideally, you will also put together a registry that is convenient for your wedding guests to access. For example, stores with locations across multiple U.S. cities (like Williams Sonoma or Bed Bath & Beyond) or stores that allow online ordering (like Amazon) are great options. With that being said, wedding registries are also a great opportunity to support small, locally-owned businesses, so feel free to include that as an option for your local guests.
And speaking of favorite things, we’re recommending our top 20 wedding registry ideas. From mixology bar sets to luxury bedding and must-have kitchen items, you’ll find potential wedding gifts that you’ll pine for as much as your fiance. read more…
