Erie Weddings at Erie Blogs

http://www.goerie.com/bridalguide

Visit the GoErie.com Online Bridal Guide.  There are a lot of articles in the guide– which was a pleasant surprise!

Weddings are expensive these days.  Have you considered what you could do yourself or have friends and relatives help you?  How many people have offered to help you?  It’s perfectly acceptable to take their offer.

 For brides interested in “Doing It Yourself” or DIY Weddings, there are a few Live Journal  pages.  Here is one of those sites: http://community.livejournal.com/diy_weddings/.

If frilly cookie-cutter weddings are not your style, visit this website: http://offbeatbride.com/. 

“Offbeatbride.com is the companion website for Ariel Meadow Stallings‘ book Offbeat Bride: Taffeta-Free Alternatives for Independent Brides.

The blog is just the tip of the iceberg — for the whole story you’ll need the book, which is part wedding memoir, part handbook, and totally overflowing with encouragement, tips, and tricks from and for brides who dare to walk off the beaten aisle. Read an excerpt, and then buy the book.”

The site has an entertaining blog where offbeat advice is dispensed.  Check out the store section for a humorous t-shirt for bold brides-to-be.

Any bride-to-be that surfs the Internet, must surely know about www.theknot.com.  In fact, people have given me the link to the site almost as much as they have asked, “When is the wedding?”  And that’s a lot!!!

The Knot is a great resource with information, advice, suggestions, and pictures related to wedding planning.  You can even have your own wedding website to update friends and family on status and point them to your registry. 

Unfortunately, Pittsburgh is the closest “local” area to Erie so there is not a lot of information about our town.  But hey– that is what this site is for.

 Bethany and Pierre from Erie, PA have photographs featured on the website.
