Weddingbee Readers’ Favorite Resources

September 23rd, 2007 @ 6:19 pm by Mrs. Bee

Now that some of our favorite wedding bloggers have shared their favorite wedding resources, it’s time for you to share yours!

There were too many fields to fill out at once, so we’re going to go through them one at a time, tally up all the results at the end to determine the winners, and give away some fun prizes to random commenters.  :)

First up - please comment below with your favorite sites/blogs for inspiration!  

* we’ll have a separate category for favorite planning resources (books, magazines, websites), so you don’t have to include those here.
** comments with more than one link automatically go into moderation (to protect us against spam), so if your comment doesn’t appear right away, don’t worry - it will as soon as we clear our moderation queue.  :)

Style Me Pretty and Oh Joy are the most useful blogs for wedding inspiration. But I also devour interior design blogs like Desire to Inspire, This is Glamorous…

Social Design and obviously weddingbee. The bios on the knot, though, are truthfully probably the most useful resource I’ve found.

This one - of course! http://www.confetti.co.uk which is also good for planning and speech tips etc, and http://www.alwaysabridesmaid.typepad.com. I like reading about other people’s weddings!

I read almost all of the wedding blogs. Besides Weddingbee I think that the most useful ones that regularly offer new and inspiring ideas and that don’t rehash a lot of the same stuff or do reposts of posts from other wedding blogs are Something Old Something New - http://kenziekate.blogspot.com/ and Style Me Pretty - http://www.stylemepretty.com/

For local resources I like to read dcnearlyweds - http://www.dcnearlyweds.com/, and a number of the D.C./Virgina/Maryland area photographer blogs.
Thehe knot boards are still the best for great local vendor finds despite the occasional cattyness.

My favorite resource for ideas and inspiration is Indiebride hands down. I am constantly inspired by my fellow brides creativity and originality!

TheKnot message boards, first and foremost. I’ve gotten virtually all of my vendors from recommendations on those boards/bios.

I really like the ideas on Perfect Bound.

Glamour This! by Kelly

Here are my daily reads:

Wedinngbee - http://www.weddingbee.com
Style Me Pretty - http://www.stylemepretty.com
Perfect Bound - http://www.perfectbound.blogspot.com/
Something Old Something New : http://kenziekate.blogspot.com/
Oh Joy: http://ohjoy.blogs.com
And the new Martha Stewart Blog - http://blogs1.marthastewart.com/weddings/

And I am sure I am missing so many more….
Hopefully one day my blog will be in the list :)

I really should have mentioned all the blogs in my blogroll. WeddingBee, Style Me Pretty, Brooklyn Bride, Style Me Pretty and Junebug are daily reads. Bride of Rochester , Classis Bride, Preppy Bride and Oh Happy Blog! are new reads and always a treat. Toast and Tables, Decor8, Design Sponge and other style blogs like All the Best, Blosem and This is Glamorous also inspire me to think about color, texture and great design. When I’m in the mood for food I check out Chocolate and Zucchini as well. Can I vote twice?

Wedding Bee and Style Me Pretty are my top favs. I also like Something Old Something New, the Kenzie Kate blog and http://www.hostessblog.com, while not a wedding blog has a lot of good eye candy and visual inspiration especially for bridal showers, engagement parties and the like.

I’m really inspired by photography blogs. I love the combination of the artistry the photographers use and the wonderful details of the actual wedding. Here are some of my favorites:

John & Joseph: http://jkhphoto.com/blog/
Yvonee Wong: http://www.xanga.com/cant_fly_today
Boutwell Blog: http://www.boutwellstudio.com/blog/
Bumaytay Blog: http://bumataystudio.blogspot.com/
Jessica Claire: http://www.jessicaclaire.net/

and if you have never seen Yvonne Wong’s wedding bio. John & Joseph were her photographers.
Check it out. It’s so inspiring and beautiful: http://community.theknot.com/cs/ks/user/page.aspx?username=vonney&MsdVisit=1

A company that does Everything Weddings! Priovides the sound, music, DJs, amazing lighting, EVERTHING! I found them in New York Magazine’s wedding issue. They’ve also been in Town and Country wedding issue, The Knot magazine, etc. Just tell ‘em your (sound and) vision and they take it from there! Just go on the website and look at the beautiful lighting pics!
