Addicted to Wedding Websites

Brian and I are on a roll once again in planning our wedding. We've been putting it off for the past two months because we were busy with fixing requirements for our soon-to-be new home *yay!*. Anyway, God is really good because He's been providing all our needs. I'm just so amazed at how He's working around us. It even leaves me speechless and teary-eyed sometimes.

Work at the office is pretty slow and thank God because I have some time to do research and work out our wedding plans. It was really overwhelming at first because there's a ton of things to do and decide upon. Good thing I came across wedding websites all over the internet to help me plan. But here's the thing...I can't really find an online wedding planning site that actually suits my needs.



Most of the wedding websites that I came across with are based in the US and some of the things included in their checklist, and even their budget planner (which uses US dollar currency), doesn't really apply to me. But I signed up anyway cause I needed inspiration and ideas. Anyway, here's a list of the websites that I found really useful:

1. The Knot (www.theknot.com)
    - I like their wedding planning tools because they're very detailed. I find this site the most comprehensive because they've got a wedding checklist, guest list manager (which also allows you to create a seating chart), wedding website builder, budget planner, and even customizable inspiration boards. But the low down? It's US based. I hope some Pinoy Wedding Website developer would come up with something similar.

2. Weddings@Work (www.weddingsatwork.com)
    - This is basically a weddings supplier site. It's actually helpful because it has a big directory of every wedding supplier you could ever think of here in the Philippines. This is where I got the news about the first Bridal Fair that I attended. I also like that they have a feature on the legal requirements needed for the civil registry.

3. BridalBook.ph (www.bridalbook.ph)
   - This website is almost similar to TheKnot. But what's good about this site is that it's relevant for a Pinoy bride like me :-). But the low down is that they don't have the other wedding planning features that TheKnot has like a budget planner (which I find very important).

4. WeHeartWeddings (www.weheartweddings.com)
   - I like this wedding blog because it features more than just a showcase of suppliers. It has stories, tips, ideas, etc. And I like the way they write because they sound friendly. Reading their blog entries makes you heart weddings, too :D

Those are basically the wedding websites that consume most of my internet hours for the past week. And I'm getting excited every passing minute! Wedding day is in six months!
