WIT-Wedding Wednesday: Where to find inspiration


So far, I haven't talked about my "bridal-status" much because I think it's every woman's little private  world. But then when I started to plan my wedding I realised there are so many fashion, beauty and style aspects that I was dying to share with all WIT readers and, more specifically, 2011 brides. So here comes the idea of WIT-Wedding Wednesdays with your own fashion editor's tips and insider knowledge. I will be testing out beauty treatments, talking to the experts, trying on LOTS of dresses and  and much, much more. 

This week's WWW is all about my favorite sources of inspiration. I love sitting on my couch after a long days' work and scrawling through the Internet in search for images that inspire me. I save all the images I love in categorised files on my desktop (Dress, flowers, hair, make op, bridesmaids etc..), that way you will have your own database of fabulous inspiration. I think you  (and I) will find great inspiration from this list.  See you next Wednesday and enjoy!

BLOGS
The most fun I've had in front of the computer in a long time...warning, you can get sucked in!




FASHION
Even if you can't afford to go designers, these are my favorite and all worth a look for inspiration.


 



FLOWERS
There is lots of floral inspiration in blogs but this is my absolute favorite London florist


WEBSITES
Great for  some lunch-time entertainment..



HAIR AND MAKE UP
Lots of ideas to recreate your perfect wedding look





BOOKS AND MAGAZINE
A good friend of mine is the fashion director of Cosmo Brides and styles the most beautiful, dreamy and romantic shoots. Here are some more of my favorite reads

Cosmo Brides
US Brides Magazine
Italian Elle Sposa
Martha Stewart Wedding
Martha Stewart wedding book


THE PAST...



ORGANISATION IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS
Keep a wedding file to put all your tears in and carry a small notebook in your bag to joy down any ideas

Thank you for this Laura! It's exactly what I need - there's so much hideous wedding stuff out there, and it's easy to get sucked into the madness and lose your own sense of style - this should therefore help!
