Congratulations! The winner for this contest is Lindsey! Thanks to all who entered!
I love Etsy. It’s like a way cooler, easier, trendier version of a craft fair. There really is something for everyone. For brides planning weddings, Etsy is a great source for unique wedding related products.
Since this is wedding week on the blog, I decided to offer my FIRST EVER GIVEAWAY: a $25 gift card to Etsy. Even if you aren’t planning a wedding, Etsy offers great selection of products from vendors of all types for men and women.
So, here’s how you enter:
1. Follow My Blog. Directly to the right underneath the “About Me” photo, there is a box that allows you to follow my blog.

You just get a notifications when I post something new! You must be a follower to win. If you already follow, skip this step.
P.S. It would also be awesome if you “liked” my blog on Facebook. You don’t have to do that to enter the contest, but it is a great way to stay connected! Click Here for that page.
2. Comment and tell me what you like best about weddings. Maybe you love watching the groom’s face when the bride walks down the aisle. Maybe you hate weddings and your favorite part is leaving at the end. Either way, comment and let me know! Don’t be discouraged if your comment doesn’t show up right away. I approve each one!

I love weddings. As you know we’ve been playing wedding planner since we were about 7. And although I do love a good party, I would have to say my favorite part about weddings is the ceremony and the symbolism behind it! Two lives joining together, representing the love of Christ and his church. I loved how perfectly you, Jeremy, and everyone involved in your wedding displayed the sanctity and the beauty of marriage through your wedding ceremony! I soaked up every minute!!

Two lives coming together as one, representing the love of Christ for his church.

I absolutely love watching the grooms face!! The love in his eyes when he first sees his bride. The purity in that moment is my favorite. It is such a beautiful picture of when we go home to heaven and see Christ’s face, the purity and joy in that moment like a bride and a groom on their wedding day!

I actually do like weddings. Not so much for the ceremony although that part is nice. But I just love the party after. Its fun to mingle with people and talk. I get to meet new people and then also talk to some I rarely get to see.

I’m in the middle of planning Dain and I’s wedding, and I’ve loved almost every moment of the planning process 🙂 We have decided not to see each other before the ceremony. I’m so excited for that moment when we see each other for the first time as I’m walk towards him. I think my favorite part about weddings is the big reveal. Whether you choose to have a special moment before where you do or don’t see each other, or nothing before the wedding, it is such a special moment. I know people love seeing the grooms face, but love seeing how the bride and groom respond to each. I love weddings in general, but especially that moment and the moment that the bride and groom make their commitment to each other.
I love reading your blog btw!!

Weddings, weddings, I just love them! I think my favorite part is seeing the love that the bride and groom have for one another. It’s just so sweet and exciting to watch two people commit themselves to each other and to God!
Speaking of weddings, yours was gorgeous. Between your blog and facebook I’ve seen lots of pictures from your wedding, but I never get tired of them!

I’m always interested to see what the cake looks like, especially with how advanced cake decorating is nowadays.

I love watching the first dance, and just observing the bride and groom throughout the night. A couple who has put all their time, efforts, and months of patience into being joined together, finally has what they’ve been waiting for! Also, who doesn’t love a good reception : )We love your blog. Big fans. Hope to meet someday.

What a great giveaway, thank you! As you know… those of us planning weddings are usually strapped for cash. 🙂 I’m in the middle of planning a destination wedding right now and this would be amazing! I’m following you on wordpress and over at bloglovin (kwandcm).
My favorite thing about weddings is the way they bring families together. 🙂

My favorite part about a wedding is that father of the bride walking his daughter down the isle. It always looks like such a sweet memorable moment between them! It was for me 🙂

I love watching the father of the bride give her away…it’s the best compliment a dad can give to the man that his daughter loves.

My favorite part of a wedding is a dinner and dance reception. I love how weddings bring old friends together, and how eating and dancing is such a tangible way to celebrate together.

I like the buildup as the bride gets ready to enter. The chiming of the bell, everyone stands, the music gets louder, and then everyone cranes their necks to get a glimpse of the beautiful bride and her dress. Of course, everything else is great, but that’s one of my favorites!

My favorite part of weddings is hearing the music the bride and groom selected for the ceremony (assuming its not the traditional wedding march!). I feel like it speaks more about the bride and groom as to who they are and sets the tone for the rest of the wedding. We picked our music and now realize that we couldn’t have picked a more perfect group of songs to tell our story. And, I feel like I should be completely honest, my other favorite part is the cake, hands down. 🙂
How unique! I love that! It’s true that music says a lot about the couple!

I love weddings, but I think my favorite part is actually the preparation. All the anticipation and excitement is infectious. Planning and running around like crazy people until 5 minutes before the ceremony is just so energized and awesome.

The first dance is my favorite! I love seeing what the couples song is going to be and then daydreaming about what song I would dance to at my wedding. I love how beautiful that moment between the newlyweds can seem! I rarely tear up during a ceremony, but get me to a reception and announce the bride and grooms first dance and let the waterworks begin!
