Most agree that your wedding day may be the most expensive single day in your life. This site offers a treasure trove of vendors and resources for everything from gowns to gifts to honeymoon packages. Brides-to-be can use the budget calculator, guest list manager and wedding checklist, and create a personal Web page to post details about engagement and wedding plans. Check out the Planning category, which has lots of helpful articles in categories including Food & Drink, The Wedding Party and Sticky Subjects (such as pre-nups, or what to do if your parents take control of your wedding). You can also post your comments or questions in the popular message boards area with topics ranging froms Honeymoon and Reception Ideas to Wedding Withdrawal and Money Matters. Brides can create a registry on the site that offers 20,000 products in departments like fine china, table accents, bedding and bath and sports and leisure. Among the partners are Linens-n-Things and Fortunoff.
BEST: The Gowns area has a comprehensive gallery of over 20,000 dresses for brides, bridesmaids, flower girls and Moms.
WORST: Lots of annoying pop-up windows pushing the sale of the site's products. |
