The Size and Scope of Weddings Across the Country

You may have already heard it from The Huffington Post or The Knot, but average wedding costs reached an all-time high in 2012 of $28,427. We did a little more research and found out how weddings measure up across the country. There’s variation between the size and scope of American weddings – a Northeastern wedding, for example, has the biggest big day budget with nearly the smallest guest list. We discovered who the big spenders are and the average cost and size of weddings across the United States.

Dressing for a Great Gatsby Wedding

You may not be able to snag Leonardo DiCaprio as a groom, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t have a 1920′s Gatsby-inspired dream wedding. In the excitement of the upcoming The Great Gatsby movie premier this Friday, we’re inspired by the glamor and dreamy romanticism of the 1920s.

So how do you get your lush vintage wedding look? Gatsby means lots of sheer soft whites, champagne, and most of all, vintage rhinestones!
