As a filler in between photo blog post, I am going to show you my hot picks for some websites that I am frequently visiting. I get inspiration and ideas from all these blogs, plus, it’s usually an interesting read.
It is filled with photographs, so if you are looking for something to read only, this post is not for you.
First up!
Style Me Pretty (http://stylemepretty.com/)

Style Me Pretty is a great site to go to if you are looking to plan your own wedding. It has everything from colour palettes, inspiration boards, DIY projects, photo galleries, etc. While in the process of planning my own wedding, I had a mixture of wants and don’t wants. We have to have a big wedding dinner so small intimate sessions with family and friends was out of the question. I wanted something simple, less of gold and red but still keeping to the traditional chinese customs, but not too much of it.
I came to this site for colours and inspirations from the other brides. Choosing a colour that is different yet readily available is quite tough! My decision for red and aqua came after many many many websites and google images! My bridesmaids can tell you I have swapped colour palettes 3 times before I stuck to this.
What I love about Style Me Pretty is the DIY projects that you can do to enhance your wedding. I love it when blogs have DIY sections. But I think it drives YC crazy cause every time I see something amazing, I’ll tell him, “Let’s do that! Pfffttt…no problem, piece of cake!”. I think it scares him a little bit. Also, good for those on a budget! I love how I can put our personal touch on the corsages, boutonnieres, the flowers, the invites, the settings.
This website is HIGHLY recommended.
Junebug Weddings (http://junebugweddings.com/)

This is another great site to go to for inspirations.
Junebug has a wide variety of photographers for me to look for inspiration when it comes to photographing a wedding. Sometimes, it’s not to look for ideas. Just looking at the photos makes me happy!! It’s so pretty and really, these photographers are amazing. The things that they can do….wow. I love the different styles and techniques these photographers use that you know you are not looking at just the same thing over and over again.
If you want to see what other bride and grooms are doing, honeymoon ideas, FAQs (YES! FAQs!), Junebug has ‘em. Just looking at the image gallery will take you some time to finish it!

This is another HIGHLY recommended website when it comes to planning your own wedding.
Malaysian Brides (http://www.malaysiabrides.com/forum/index.php)

This time, it’s something closer to home. Nothing like having a local website that can help you plan your wedding. It’s much easier with planning because then, you know where to go, how much, plan your budget and most importantly, share ideas and get some feedback.
They’ve got a pretty strong community there and they are all friendly and very eager to help you whenever they can. When it comes to local traditional stuff that I need to incorporate into the wedding, I come here for answers. Definitely a plus point when you need to find a local store to buy wedding things. All you need to do is go into the forum and look for them.
There are a lot of discussions from which photographer, which bridal store, make-up artists, which church, what do you do in CMPC (that’s Catholic Marriage Preparation Course), where to get the wedding favours, how much are your cards, etc. It’s a very resourceful website and I love it.
If you are a Malaysian or getting married in Malaysia or just planning a wedding that you want to incorporate something that is close to your roots, I’d recommend Malaysian Brides forum. Absolutely wonderful!
I have tonnes of websites to share still but I only have room for these three at the moment. These three will help you tremendously! I’ll post up some more at a later time.
Have fun planning your wedding and please, share your ideas!
