Wedding Instagram Accounts |you should be following|


Thank goodness it is Wednesday.  I don't know about you, but for me this has been a long week already.  I think because I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of my little niece.  This past Friday, I got a text from my sister saying she thought she was in labor.  It was a false alarm, but I was ready to jump on a jet plane to get to her.  She is but 3-4 hours away from me.  I obviously don't own a jet plane, but when the "actual" labor happens, I am going to wish I did. Based on her symptoms I am/was convinced it was going to happen this week, or in the very near future.  Another exciting event this week is tomorrow. It is mine and Jack's 9th year anniversary of dating.  Yes, 9 years. Where does the time go?  And I am super excited for Saturday. I am going with some of my bridesmaids to try on dresses, ekk.

I just wanted to share some of my favorite wedding insta accounts that I follow. I am loving the pretty pictures of inspiration they post!


| The Knot |
Have you checked out The Know app or website?  I love them both and have found them to be extremely helpful in the planning process as far as what I should be doing in what time frames.  I also found some of the vendors I am using for our wedding from the reviews on the website.  I encourage you to check it out if you haven't already!  I also created a free wedding website for Jack and I's wedding. There are a lot of cute templates to choose from and it is really easy to update.

I love the pretty vintage-inspired pictures that are posted on this site.  Another plus is if there is something you like on the insta you can fine the link to purchase it, I do caution you though that I have found the prices of items on their website to be pricey.  But we all have different budgets!  I do encourage you to at least skim through the pretty pictures and get inspired!





|SMP Weddings|
Style Me Pretty is full of loveliest images of just about everything wedding related.  I often find my self on their website because they have so many "real weddings" to look through. And at the bottom of each "real wedding" they provide the vendors name. So if you found a bridesmaid dress color or style you could easily find the designers name or location to buy it.  Which is amazing, because seriously how many times have you been on Pinterest or any app or even looking in a magazine and see a picture of a dress you love and can't find anywhere the designer or color or any information on where you can find the dress?!  Well, worry no more because this website will solve your problems :) They also have "DIY Project" section on their website.  It's amazing, I have found so many easy DIY ideas for our wedding!



|Loverly|
My absolute favorite.  I love everything about this insa account and their app. Mostly because of the pretty pictures of flowers they post ;-)  But also, their app lets you create "bundles", kind of like a board on Pinterest.  And you can create a bundle each items of the wedding (i.e. decor, ceremony, dress, cake, flowers, and so on). I like it more then a Pinterest board because 1) the pictures are easier to scroll though and they are from real weddings 2) similar to Style Me Pretty, if you click on it, you will be directed to the real wedding which the picture came from and it provides you with all the information you will need/want.  Another thing I love about Loverly is I get emails from them (you don't have to if you don't want) that include cute articles about different wedding related things.



What insta accounts or wedding apps do you use? Would love to hear about them!

  3. I am still obsessed with wedding Instas, and I probably will be forever (at least I can use the fact that I am a Wedding Planner as an excuse). They have the most beautiful photos, and such wonderful ideas. I used The Knot app for the countdown, but I preferred Wedding Wire for the checklist and they have so many helpful tools such as guest list management and seating plan.

    Thanks for linking up with us!

  5. I never thought to follow wedding accounts on Instagam, but I'm on there all the time, so that is really a great idea. My wedding is over, but I might have to follow some of these just for the pretty pictures. Thanks for sharing!
