Bridesmaid Dresses

I had the honor of being my sister's maid of honor this year, and, in a 36 email email-chain with 6 bridesmaids, heavily researched dresses. JCrew provides incredible diversity of cuts all in the same color, which gives bridesmaids the freedom to find dresses that fits their body type. San Francisco-based Siri also has cute styles, but I haven't researched the price point.

Starting Wedding Planning

Having recently moved to another part of the country, I was surprised to find that websites that are a part of my life are completely unknown here. Specifically, women getting married follow a whole slew of wedding related websites to understand the steps required to plan a wedding (www.knot.com) and create a personalized, alternative style (www.indiebride.com). My sister recommended www.elizabethannedesigns.com/blog/ for inspirational designs, snippetandink.blogspot.com for live wedding examples, and www.apracticalwedding.com for more down-to-earth ideas.
