If you're not on Pinterest, hurry - request an invitation now! Because Pinterest has become this super exclusive club there is a good chance you will be put on a waiting list. Good news is, if you have a friend who is already a member, they can send you an invitation.
I will warn you now - Pinterest is ridiculously addicting. Not just for wedding planning, but life planning! Don't be surprised, or embarrassed if you spend half the day "pinning" - it happens to the best of us. :-)
So you're a member of the Pinterest club - now what? First, you want to create your boards. Think of it like a virtual bulletin board where you can pin hundreds of articles, photos, and websites. I would recommend you avoid one giant wedding board, otherwise you will end up like me and have 332 pins and unable to find anything! Take a look at my "Here Comes the Bride" board to give you an idea of the chaos that can ensue. :-)
So learn from my mistake and create your separate your boards, here are some ideas to get you started:
Shoes
Hair and Makeup
Cakes
Invitations
Dresses
For Him (Attire, Groomsman, etc)
Flowers
Decor
Bachelorette Party
Bridal Shower
Favors
Photography
Now that my big day is over, it's fun to look back at some of my pins. It's funny to see how many different directions I took. Some of them make me wonder what I was thinking - paper flowers? Major DIY fail!
Do you have any board ideas, or successful Pinterest stories? Please share!
Happy Planning,
Anti-Bridezilla
