vote for hindsight bride, but vote for others too!
When I was planing my own wedding, blogs were my saving grace. Many of my favorites offered alternative views and fresh inspiration that the bridal magazines were slower to recognize. You can find most of them on my blog love list.
Every year, a fresh crop of faces surfaces in the blogosphere. I happy to be one of them. And every year there are a number of websites that ask you to vote for your favorites. Two of which I have been nominated 1) Bride Tide’s Top Wedding Blogs for 2011 and 2) Wedzilla Guru Awards. In addition to giving myself a shameless plug and asking for your vote (which I am am extremely shy about doing,) I thought I would also share with you the fabulous bloggers who have won my votes this year. While there are many many fabulous resources out there, these are my favorites for their fresh and original content.
