Google Docs for Wedding Planning

I just saw this come across my blog reader, and I am so excited for all of you planning a wedding out there! Google docs has made customized documents for wedding planning!

I use Google Documents all of the time for my day job, and for storing all of my photography information. The great thing is that the documents are online - so you can access them from anywhere. Plus, Google's form options would make collecting those addresses from friends and family a sinch! (you create the form, people visit and fill it out, and then it *automatically* fills out a spreadsheet for you - how awesome!)

As an added bonus Style Me Pretty, one of my favorite wedding inspiration blogs, has written tips and tricks from some of the best in the industry.

So what are you waiting for, check it out!

Sweet Wedding Invites

I know that when I got married almost 2 years ago, the hardest thing for us to find was invitations that were cool, contemporary... and honestly a little less late 80's/early 90's looking. One might think this is an easy task, however after many hours of scouring the internet we felt as if our quest was impossible. Don't despair internet, we did find some invitations eventually that we loved, but it just took a while. So, when we got this invitation to our friend Justin's wedding, I knew I just had to share it with you. I just love these because they are so simple, but yet trendy and useful. And they all stack up to fit in a regular envelope (so you don't need that fancy dancy wedding stamp that costs a ton!).

Justin is a man of many talents, graphic design just being one of them. Be sure to check out his photography site, and leave him some love! If you're in Des Moines and need a photographer, please give him a call!

Note: I did blur out some of the details in Photoshop to protect the innocent :-P
