Tools for the Perfect Wedding
The structure of weddings have really stayed the same for decades now, but one of the biggest changes to come along is the internet. Registries, Guest Books, and Wedding Websites (also known as wedsites) are great for capturing everything you will need for the big day. You will find these online tools unique and useful.
Today pretty much every guest is a wedding photographer, bringing their digital cameras and phones to your wedding. And while not all of their shots will be as great as your official photographer’s, you still want to see them for your wedding scrapbook. GuestShots allows you to easily gather everyone’s photos and videos from all of your wedding events, engagement party, bridal shower, bachelor and bachelorette parties, rehearsal dinner and of course the wedding day. This service will provide you with custom cards to mail to your guests, so they know how to upload their images and once uploaded, you can browse them on a private and secure site. Select your favorites and create a wedding scrapbook and movie that can be shared online, printed in a professional and customized book or put on a DVD.

WeddingJoJo has just two options, free or premium, as well as password protection, RSVPs, planning kit, and blog integration. Overall, WeddingJoJo has the perfect balance between price, design, and features.
