favorite: the pictures of everything.
ReplyDeleteun-favorite: that im not getting married!!! lol
Great giveaway! 89 days until I need it! :-)
ReplyDeleteAs for blogs, I absolutely love all the beautiful pics and great diy ideas. I love ladies sharing about their personal experiences and strategies in the planning process... and the relational process of engagement. I don't enjoy seeing people just copy other people's blog posts (unless they expand on them with their own thoughts and ideas).
favorite thing: the beautiful pictures that give me inspiration
ReplyDeleteleast favorite: seeing amazing diy projects and knowing they would never look as good when I try.
Favorite: So many DIY projects that make me feel like I can tackle them.
ReplyDeleteLeast favorite: The DIY projects that make it look so dang easy and cheap when it's really not.
Umm I need to win this giveaway like nobody's business! I'm absolutely terrified about all the hustle and bustle associated with changing my name! :)
ReplyDeleteSo, I love getting ideas from other people's wedding blogs and reading their "stories."
I don't so much enjoy people critiquing things that other people have done, though. What works for some people doesn't necessarily work for others, and sadly I have come across a lot of judgmental comments across the blogosphere! :(
Did I mention that this is a fabulous giveaway?
I love all the inspiration and creative people you find. I don't like the fact that I can't read all of the great blogs out there (too many).
ReplyDeleteFavorite: gorgeous pictures
ReplyDeleteunfavorite: most of the wedding dresses are ridiculously hideous. :)
favoritest: all the unique ideas i wish i would come up with!
ReplyDeleteleast favoritest: the unique ideas i can't come up with, but will steal for my wedding! :)
Favorite thing: That I get awesome ideas I never would have thought of myself. And all the stunning pictures of EVERYTHING!
ReplyDeleteHate: All the awesome ideas that I see that I so wish I could afford to do! Having to do a wedding on a budget totally SUCKS sometimes! lol
Favorite - the sense of community and free-sharing of ideas. I love how open everyone is with what they are doing, and how so many people share the steps for their DIYs.
ReplyDeleteLeast fave: the repetition. If I see something in one place, I don't want to see the same description on ten other blogs (I do a lot of reading). Just link back that you liked what someone did, and if I have already seen it, it's a lot easier to skip.
This is exactly what I need!
ReplyDeleteFavorite thing about wedding blogs: The camaraderie that occurs between blogging brides. I love the support/advice/opinions that I get!
Least Favorite: The feeling of need to "keep up with the Joneses" so to say.
My favorite thing about wedding blogs: The great ideas
ReplyDeleteMy least favorite thing: The great ideas! haha. I want to incorporate just about everything I see!
Love this giveaway! I was hoping someone would give me this for a bridal shower gift :)
ReplyDeleteFave thing about blogs: The support and feedback from fellow brides about all things wedding. I love having a place to constantly (read: obsessively) talk about weddings and not feel guilty about it.
Least fave: Blogs that don't leave a lot of pictures. Being that you rarely meet these people in person, one of the best ways to feel like you really 'know' them is through all the visual images you can share online to help bring your readers in.
1. I love learning all the new ideas/details brides are incorporating into their big day!
ReplyDelete2. i like blogs that have pictures..if an entry doesn't have at least 1 pic.. im bummed..and hard to read the entry!
great giveway..i live in LA and i am very scared of the DMV/SS office out here... errr those horrible
I love all of the inspiration I get, it's so helpful! What I don't like is when bloggers only write and don't include pictures... keeps you interested and gives you a visual!
ReplyDeleteI've heard so much about Miss Now Mrs and would LOVE this giveaway!

My favorite part - besides inspiration from photos, b/c I think that's almost a given - is etiquette advice and how-tos on problem solving. I'm a fixer, not a freaker-outer.
ReplyDeleteMy least favorite part - overindulgent brides. I'm interested in reading how a bridge overcame something or what WORKED, but not every single tiny detail.
What a fun giveaway! I could use this :) My favorite thing about wedding blogs is the many, many inspiring ideas and all the support and kind feedback you receive from others!
ReplyDeleteMy most un-favorite thing is when you comment on someone's blog on a pretty regular basis and they never visit your blog.

Oooh! This is a giveaway I can dig! :)
ReplyDelete#1 MY FAVE thing about wedding blogs- the EXTREMELY tight bond that women-who have never met-can have while discussing budgets, flowers, inspirations & dresses. I LOVE the free flow of ideas & support that comes from blogs. It's kinda like "we're in this together, honey!".
#2 My LEAST FAVE thing about wedding blogs- Hmmm...that I can't sign up for them quick enough? No? Okay...when some bloggers are overly critical of others or alway have to try and "one-up" another blogger. It's a wedding, not competition. Oh...and I hate when blogs don't have pictures.
Favorite Thing: Seeing new ideas and great inspiration.
ReplyDeleteLeast Favorite: Lots of text, so little pictures. I read so many blogs, that it's hard to read them word for word. I usually skim them and those who have really eye catching images I'll stop and read closer.
Favorite: ideas and inspiration
ReplyDeleteLeast Favorite: the time it takes me to go through it all. my news reader always has 100+ unread items in my OMGWedding! category!
My favorite thing is also my least favorite thing. The inspiration overload. In the beginning it was perfect, but as I get deeper into planning, I can't seem to draw myself away from the blogs, and I keep seeing new great ideas that I'd love to incorporate.
ReplyDeletei have to copy Novelista Barista:
ReplyDeletefavorite: the inspiration
un-favorite: that i'm not getting married now!
save it for another day! this kit would be great for my friends who are getting married though! :)
1) Your favoritest thing about wedding blogs...real weddings
ReplyDeleteand
2) Your least favoritest thing about wedding blogs...expensive wedding gowns i could never afford
favorite: seeing pretty, diyable things i want in my wedding!
ReplyDeleteunfavorite: seeing pretty WAY TOO EXPENSIVE things i want in my wedding.
My favorite part of wedding blogs: All the great ideas!
ReplyDeleteMy least favorite part:
All the great ideas! I have such a hard time narrowing it down to what I actually can do.
My favorite and least favorite thing about wedding blogs is the same thing. Inspiration, sometimes it is amazing and the new ideas are incredible and other times it is overwhelming and you feel like you need to use all the ideas.
ReplyDeleteAs an oh-so-progressive Master to Mister, I nearly resent the gender bias in this contest!
ReplyDeleteBut seriously: it is not always the woman who changes her name (and, indeed, I did request permission from her father--first for her hand and later for her name...).
As for my entry:
Best thing about wedding blogs is all the new information that *I* do not have to seek out myself...
The worst thing? The hysterics! Every. Last. Detail. Must. Be. Perfect!
R-e-l-a-x... It'll all be perfect in memory...
Favorite: All the wonderful, creative ideas!
ReplyDeleteLeast Favorite: Insanely expensive items...
Favorite: The amazing inspiration ideas and pictures. Every aspect of the weddings look so well put together!
ReplyDeleteNot so Favorite: That would have to be the expensiveness of the wedding elements. There's some beautiful things out there that cost a fortune!
Pictures. I love love love all the pictures.
ReplyDeleteI hate when there's something amazing (most often a gorgeous venue), and they don't list where the wedding was held. It's impossible to figure it out sometimes, and the not knowing drives me insane.
my FAVORITE thing: all the inspiration you wonderful people provide! especially DIYs and gift ideas, etc.
ReplyDeletemy least favorite - seeing the same wedding/project on multiple blogs over and over again. i like a small, "hey look at this", but not an entire feature of the same thing.
thanks for the cool giveaway!
