I first came across the blogging world after I googled "Los Angeles wedding venues." I was very interested in The Bungalow Club as a potential venue... and wanted to see pictures of a wedding done there... which ended up leading me to this rad-as-balls wedding blog: The Broke-Ass Bride. The *instant* I read a post from Dana, I was in love. Hooked. And for once, I actually got excited about planning our own wedding. But I came late to the game. Her wedding had already been planned and executed by the time I found her site. But that didn't matter. What drew me to Dana's amazing blog was her writing style, her honesty, and her think-outside-the-box mentality. But what I connected with the most was Hunter and Dana's amazing love story. I sat and read her blog from beginning to end in practically one sitting. I even read all her posts on Weddingbee as Mrs. Meatball... in the hopes that there was a post on there I hadn't read on her personal blog. (I know. Fangirl-alert). Reading their story just made me fall in love with being in love all over again. And just because I found her site after her wedding was over, that didn't stop me from starting at the very beginning of the blog. You can learn SO MUCH about planning a wedding from reading a bride blogger or groom blogger's journey from the very beginning. Because *that* is what our blogs really are: big electronic journals documenting how we all fell in love, got engaged, and experienced the blissful insanity that is planning a wedding.
So, as a service to you all, I have compiled a list. A list of links to "First posts" from my favorite must-read-if-you're-planning-a-wedding Blogs. Click on the link, and start reading from the beginning. And fall in love with planning your wedding the same way I did...
Oh, and here's MY FIRST POST... Just in case you want to go back and fall in love with our love story! And to all the bloggers listed above: Thank you. I couldn't have survived this journey without your support and inspiration. I love you all!
