Photography on your big day

Avoid these odd poses on your big day....at ALL costs.

Top 5 places for wedding invitations

Sometimes brides don't care enough about their invitations. Invitations tell your guests what type of wedding it's going to be. Also, unfortunately, some decide on that alone on how much they should spend on your wedding gift, and if it's worth it. I have found that online you can find the best selections of invitations. Here's my top five online stores for invitations.
#1. The Wedding Paper Divas. Although pricey, you definitely get what you pay for. Every invitation is truly remarkable, little works of art to impress your guests to be. Browse their site at: http://www.weddingpaperdivas.com/
#2. Finestationary.com has everything from a vera wang invite, to a custom made ecru personalized ribbon with pearl banding invite. They cater to a wide variety of tastes, and have a wide price range. Browse their site at: http://www.finestationary.com/
#3. Lcipaper.com - This is one of my absolute favorites! The reason though that I ranked it as #3 was simply the fact, that their already made invites suck. BUT. They have a wide range of specialty papers, and d.i.y. kits to make your own fabulous wedding invitations....which is what I like them for. If your the bride ready to tackle cutting, pasteing, printing, licking, and stamping your own invites, then I completely recommend this site to you. Browse their site at: http://www.lcipaper.com/
#4 Rexcraft.com They tend to do more classic than contemporary, but they have a nice selection of white with colored accents to choose from. Browse their site at: http://www.rexpaper.com/
#5 dauphinepress.com - These people completely overcharge, but its a great resource for ideas. Browse their site at: http://www.dauphinepress.com/
