Weddingbee Blog

Hello hive! I’m finally back from DC (I think I’m the last B-Lister to have hobbled back home) and excited to share with you some of the details of the event from this weekend.

This was my first year at the B-List, and above all, my favorite part of the weekend was putting faces to the blogs we all love. The wedding blog world is a small one and the inspiration that the B-List bloggers have brought to me and all other brides (past and present) is never-ending.

Meet the faces behind the blogs (photography provided by Carlos Andres Varela and Shane Carpenter for Elan Artists):
