PS Sighting: Google for Weddings

0 comments
Hello My Socialite Brides,

I hope planning has been a breeze for those of you that have already started and I hope that this is helpful for anyone that has just started. As I was searching through my emails the other day I came across this little gem. Ladies, let me introduce you to Google for Weddings.


Google is at it again and I must tip my hat to them. Through Google for Weddings you can create your own Wedding site, use Picnik to edit photos and create some of your wedding materials, use Google docs to help you with all your planning documents, and share your photos from all your wedding activities with Picasa. This is an amazing little bundle.

Google sites teamed up with renowned wedding planner and destination expect Michelle Rago to create the beautiful collection of themes you'll find. Use Google Sites to share information about your wedding, your engagement story, and anything else you can think of.



Picnik has coordinating themes so you can edit your photos and create engagement announcements, save-the-dates, and plenty of other fun projects.



Google Docs has all the files you need to help keep you organized and stress free through your wedding planning process. You'll find docs for your address book, guest list, budget planner, seating chart and much more.



Picasa Web Albums will allow you to gather and organize all your photos. Are you trying to decide on bridesmaid dresses? Take pictures of all of the options and share them with the team. Need help picking the perfect dancing shoes to go with your reception dress? Organize your top picks here. Everyone needs a digital Look Book.



To see all the cool features check out Google for Weddings.

Happy Planning!

Wedding Wisdom: Bringing the Family Together

0 comments

Hello My Socialite Brides,

You have spent so much time planning this wonderful wedding day and with all the focus on making sure everything goes according to plan you never realize that you missed spending time with the family and friends that made your day possible. It all goes by so quickly but you want to remember this moment and the people you spent it with for the rest of your life. Here’s your solution, extend your wedding weekend a little bit with these ideas.

Are you a night owl? Have an after party after the official reception. Invite everyone back to the hotel where you’ll be staying and have a little bar party at the hotel bar. Find out if the bar will allow you to have pizza delivered and just hang out at the bar with your family and friends and really let your hair down. We’ll even let you go change into something truly comfortable. Everyone knows you’re the new Mr. and Mrs. so you can lose the formal gear.





Are you more of a morning person? How about a brunch the morning after your wedding with your newly bound family? This will not only give you a chance to spend time with your family now that the big day is out of the way but it will also give your families a chance to talk some more without the loud music and extra guests.






Remember, your wedding is one day but your marriage is the rest of your life so why not start the memories as soon as possible with your new family.

Happy Planning!

Blissfully Yours,
