So after all the initial wonder and awe of getting engaged, receiving so much love and affection from your nearest and dearest, and gazing into your now fiancee’s eyes with more love and longing than you ever thought possible, you do come to the realization that you have a wedding to plan!!! This can seem overwhelming and very daunting at first, especially if you have no idea where to start and can’t envision every single detail in an all encompassing theme like some lucky visionaries can! But have no fear, for if you’re as lucky as I am to have such wonderful (and very resourceful and creative!) friends and family (who may come to pity you because you look like a deer in the headlights when asked what colours you’re thinking of) ideas, recommendations and magazine’s galore will come flooding your way. Another great resource to tap into I’ve found is the good ol’ internet with it’s plethora of oh so fabulous wedding blogs and websites. There are so many to peruse through boasting a spectrum of wedding themes from classic traditional to casual destination to eco chic to alternative and funky with lots of pretty little details in between. Some of my faves include the Style Me Pretty blog; if you want to see images of real live weddings with the most thoughtful details, pops of colour and the most romantic landscapes ever this is a great one. If you love everything chic and glamorous then the Wedluxe blog and website are to die for, and for something a little more practical check out Savoury Chef - Vancouver Venues it has a comprehensive list of venues in the Vancouver area with great pieces of info like dining capacity and rental prices. Some other fantastic, very detail oriented blogs are 100LayerCake (photo above from this trendy blog highlighting wedding planner vendor 'Chic Weddings' who specialize in destination weddings in Italy! Let me pause here for a second to sigh!) and Once Wed (who are highlighting wedding cakes this week, and what I need "how to make your own wedding cake"!). All have great links to vendors and other sites of wedding interest. It’s definitely easy to get lost in the world of wedding cyberspace I tell you so give yourself an afternoon on a lazy Sunday to give them a whirl and be ready to be inspired!
