I was having trouble finding something to blog about on Brides.com for tomorrow’s 5pm post. The item I had scheduled had to be moved because the company didn’t have an image of the product yet, so I went clicking through various sites – vendors, retailers, blogs – and kept clicking from one to the next and I saw so many wonderful things.
Beautiful real weddings, inspiration boards, creative products and even stuff for RB when she gets older. It was so much fun to see all these great wedding and entertaining ideas and it was hard to feature just one – especially since some of them are links to competitor sites.
Obviously you, dear reader, are a blog reader but it’s a good idea to follow links from blog rolls and within posts because you never know where they may take you and what you may find!
And when you do find something you like, bookmark it, print out the image or info or copy what you like to a word file and keep track of everything in one document. I find that when I bookmark favorite sites I don't go back to them often, but I do refer to my regular list of favorites that are typed up and tacked to my bulletin board.

Its funny you said that because I get lost in a sea of blog posts and bridal magazines. I dont really use my bookmarks either but what I do is follow anyone who has interesting blog post, that includes brides-to-be, wedding vendors, and other wedding experts. That way I can read their recent posts on wedding topics and get inspirations for my clients. Manytime reading their posts inspires me to write about something totally off topic but at least I have an inspired post that keeps my blog interesting.
I also think just a simple google document is a great way to keep all of your wedding inspiration, links, etc. in one place. You can also share it with your fiance (and planner) so everyone can collaborate!
from the day I got engaged I stated an email to myself that I go back to over and over with notes and links- this has been a HUGE help b/c I am always in my hotmail inbox and I check out my notes and the ideas I liked often.
Like ajs mentioned, I keep an email to myself in my draft folder with links and ideas. This way I can access it from any computer.
There are so many great ideas out there to make your wedding shine! I would add Rewind Pictures to your list! (www.rewindpics.com)
