We’ll be Indexing 3 Wedding Blogs for Free!
We want more wedding blogs on our site! The more content we have, the better search experience for our brides! And we want your blog to be part of our iPad/iPhone App launch in just a few short weeks! We’ll pull down your entire blog from the day you started blogging and reindex everything on our site.
This is open to all wedding vendors who have blogs! Our engine will even display video instead of a photo if that is your first “image” of your entry.
For a chance to win, do the following 2 tasks to be entered! Leave a comment below with a link to your facebook post and your twitter name.
1. Post to your Facebook wall: “Come Search With Style for Wedding Inspiration at http://www.my-wedding-concierge.com”

Good luck! I’ll be choosing winners on Wednesday at 5:00PST!

Luxury Brands for Less – Bridesmaid Dresses & Bridal Party Gifts
Much to my husband’s chagrin, I love to shop. And to my wallet’s delight, these wonderful shopping sites have popped up to save me a ton of money on luxury brands sometimes with discounts up to 80%. Brands that I’ve come across include: Pour La Victoire, 7 for All Mankind, Spa Chakra, Furla, Betsey Johnson, and a ton others. They have some gorgeous gowns that can double as bridesmaid dresses – I’m sure your bridesmaids will thank you for saving them a lot of money, and beautiful shoes as well. If you keep your eyes open, you can easily find bridesmaid gifts, cufflinks for your groom to be, and mother of the bride dresses as well.
Ideeli is free to join, but they have an upgraded membership that allows you to shop sales one hour before it’s open to it’s free members. They have their Red Sales every so often and on those days, they slash the prices up to as much as 90% off. The sales start at 9am PST every morning and you only have 10 minutes to check out once you place an item in your cart. But, items “fly off the shelves” fast, so if you want it, you’ll have to check out even faster!
Gilt is another favorite site of mine. Actually, their iPad app is to die for. I check it every single morning at 9am PST. Their user interface is so easy to use. Shopping on the app is a breeze. The only thing that I dislike is that they only allow you to purchase 5 items at a time. I know. Should I really be buying more than 5 items? Their branding is beyond wonderful – they’ve thought of everything – when my order arrived, I thought it was Christmas time. Everything was wrapped so beautifully in black tissue paper, with a black notecard printed in gold foil that thanked me for my order. They even had printing done on the inside of the cardboard box. This site has gorgeous everything. And once again, you can easily find bridesmaid dresses, gifts, flower girl dresses, and more.
Another favorite site of mine is One King’s Lane. They’ve featured Bridal Bar’s bedsheets and Delphine Studio’s Letterpress Stationery just recently. This site has gorgeous furniture and furnishings. I’m looking forward to their Mitchell Gold sale on Thursday. LOVE their slipcover sofas! They launch sales events every weekday starting at 8 am PST/11 am EST. Each sale lasts a total of 72 hours. Quantities are limited, so shop early to avoid missing out on something you love. If you want a $10 discount code, leave a comment and I’ll email you one.
So, happy shopping and I hope you all have a wonderful week!
Sneak Peek of our Wedding Blog Search Engine iPhone/iPad App
We have been feverishly working on coding up an AMAZING App. We will be releasing an iPhone as well as an iPad app for our wedding blog search engine. It won’t only search through wedding blogs for bridal inspiration – we’ve added a geo-locator tool for brides. She can pull up on a map and zoom in on where she is located at that exact moment. What comes next is revolutionary for the wedding world. Pin drops will now dot the map around her to show her all of the wedding vendors who are indexed in our wedding blog search engine. She touches the pin head and up comes photographs of either the vendor’s work or photos of the reception site. She can read a caption on each photograph and click on the “More” button if there are blog articles associated with that vendor or review on reception site for brides to see the “Real Weddings” that have happened there! Here are some screenshots – I’m sure it’ll explain better:
The blog articles that are pulled up are targeted and relevant. It will help brides find wedding vendors in her area quickly and easily. She will also get to see blog articles that are associated with you, your work, and location. Now, here’s the best part, we are making this available INTERNATIONALLY. Yes, all the vendors that have been contacting me from the UK and Australia especially, will be able to be on here! Our app will also be released internationally.
