The Short List of Wedding Blogs

I'm always inspired by the local creativity and weddings we have, but I also love to look beyond the 757 for new and different ideas, trends, and goodies. After all, it's a big, big world out there, and we have a very diverse community of people from all over the country and world, thanks to the military and the fact that Virginia Beach has been in the top 20 best U.S. cities to live in repeatedly over the years.

So where do you even begin when you want more inspiration for your wedding? Since there are hundreds of wedding blogs beautifying the internet, I've tried to compile a quick reference list of immediate go-to's to start off your digital journey.

As just mentioned, there is a large number of online publications out there, so I've curated this list to the top three blogs that consistently post great content in these respective categories daily! And because most know I'm rather Type A and a touch OCD, it is all alphabetized for your browsing pleasure!

Disclaimer: Many of these blogs branch into other categories and there are many other blogs are out there beyond this list that would fall under each category, so please use this as a mere starting point in your quest. It's not a comprehensive list, so if something is missing, please forgive me. This was no easy task! :)
