When you are scrolling through social media or surfing the net, always remember to follow, save, screenshot, and bookmark any content that gives you that warm & fuzzy feeling inside. The worst is seeing a picture/article/post somewhere and forgetting where you found it! For iPhone photo-saves and screenshots you can create a wedding folder and move them into one easy to find location.

This will help you keep all your favorite eye candy organized! Think of the fun! Your patterns, fabrics, flower arrangements, bridal gowns, wedding party attire, food, cocktails, and stationary will be easy to find.
