eddings are something a girl has fantasized about her entire life. The fairy tale she has always dreamed about. There is a new pinboard website that makes planning for your special day fun and offer many different ideas you may have never even dreamed of. Pinterest is a virtual pinboard where people come to pin creative ideas and form a collection of pictures that help you visualize what you want your wedding to look like. Pinterest is not only for weddings, but for anything you can imagine. It has taken over many women’s computers and is a place to come and share ideas with other people who are interested in the same thing as you.
It isn’t just the ladies in white who are enjoying this 2 year old site. It is changing the industry for vendors, planners, and also magazines. People get to see different companies that they might have never heard about. This helps them start to narrow down what they are looking for in their own wedding. Pinterest is a great way to stay on top of the wedding trends and see what other people are talking about.
Even though Pinterest is a great place to express your ideas and repin what you like from others there are some downfalls to it. Something to keep in mind is not to post all your ideas to keep some surprise on your special day. One of the worst things that can happen to a bride is that someone else has the same ideas for their wedding as you do. Keep some of your own ideas a secret so this doesn’t happen. But remember that this day is yours, make it how you want it.
