I am on the hunt for some excellent wedding/marriage blogs. I would love recommendations for Canadian blogs that have great diy prjoects and discuss budgeting (of course).
Thanks all!!

weddingbells has a whole big site, with blogs, and a very addictive forum.
ReplyDeleteNone of these are Canada specific, but they do have great DIY (or DIT -- do it together) projects and budgeting discussions. Good luck!

A Practical Wedding
Offbeat Bride
Wedding Bee might have some Canadian brides.
Frugal Bride has a great discussion board and it's Canadian.
ReplyDeleteMy top 3 wedding sites, beautiful photos and some great diy ideas:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.projectwedding.com/
http://ruffledblog.com/
http://www.stylemepretty.com/
theknot.com has lots of photo galleries to browse, some forums too which you can enter by location. But I don't pay too much attention to what people are saying cuz it's mostly American and a lot of the brides are snarky.
If you want good talkboards try this Canadian site, although I don't know how current it is. http://www.canadianbride.com/
And one thing I'm not going to do anymore: waste money buying wedding magazines. You can get everything online!
Have fun planning.
Another really good one that I like is www.theweddingring.ca
ReplyDeletei write a wedding blog, but it's not really DIY (I got a C in art class once..), but I do have some budget related posts. Check it out, if you're interested!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I would look at weddingbee too. They've got great message boards, as well as the blogs. Stay away from theknot.com!
I second http://offbeatbride.com/ and not just because my photographer sister in law's photos were featured there! ;) http://offbeatbride.com/2010/07/canada-retro-legal-wedding
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!!! Clearly I have missed the announcement, but congratulations!!!! That is so great!! :)
ReplyDeleteI second (third? fourth?) Offbeat Bride. Also check out apracticalwedding.com
ReplyDeleteThe blog Young House Love has a lot of details about their wedding and it was very DIY. It's not a wedding blog per se but does have great info in this post - http://www.younghouselove.com/wedding-album/
Definitely repeating the recommendation for Offbeat Bride.
ReplyDeleteWeddingbells.ca has all sorts of budgeting and planning tools, and I'll agree, addictive forums. I was married in 2003, and now I still visit the baby sections.
