TheKnot.com

Since starting to plan my own wedding the knot website has been unbelievably helpful.

Being my first wedding and all I had no clue where to begin. I honestly had no clue on how much is involved.........and don't get me started about the politics of it all!!

Seriously I thank God for this site! After entering my wedding date and location upon registration I have all of these great tools to help me plan my wedding down to the last detail. Details that I didn't even KNOW I needed to plan! Bridesmaids tea anyone?

I love signing on and seeing my "count down to the wedding" every day. And the tools are really great. It has a handy dandy budget calculator, guest list, and a notebook that you can save ideas and images to that you've found on the website!

The real weddings posted are beautiful and actually do-able. But the truly most helpful part of the site is the message boards where you can TALK ABOUT YOUR WEDDING TO YOUR HEARTS CONTENT! and the girls there are actually interested! unlike your mom, sister, best friend, neighbor, co-workers, mailman, grocery clerk, etc. Happy planning!

Diaper Cake


Here's my first diaper cake I made for a friend of mine who's baby shower I hosted. It turned out really cute and only took a couple hours. What do you think?
