valentine's day Oh Wedding Blogs, you were my crack for far too long. I loved you and was addicted to you. I'm proud to say that I am slowing weening myself off the hard stuff.
Unfortunately, I found the blogging world a little later in the wedding process, but it was still a huge help. These wonderful blogs gave me the ambition and the inspiration to tackle our entire wedding myself.
But I do have an issue with some of these wedding blogs. I have a difficult time looking at weddings that I know cost atleast 50K, especially in the economic times we're facing.... are these even realistic for the average reader? And most of the 10K and under weddings, are extremely intimate like 50 people in attendance.
Well, what about the women, like me, who had to invite 300 people (for my parents) praying that only 250 show up. I wanted the flowers, good food, the champagne, the DJ, the videographer... I still want all of that but I'm not going to pay $40k. (and I'm originally from a small midwestern town) Where are the weddings for girls like us? Well I would like to point out one wedding blog, that I still do read on a regular basis and she blogs about realistic weddings, Darci at With This Ring. She was one of the 1st wedding blogs I ever read. And I wanted to point out the lovely wedding she displayed last week. Part 1 and Part 2.
Don't get me wrong I love getting lost in the amazing 100k weddings on television and in magazines, but lately not so much.
Thoughts?
