Happy Friday everyone! It’s our final day of giveaways here on Junebug and we sure have enjoyed spreading the holiday cheer and reading all of your thoughtful and creative comments this week! Today we want to offer you support, encouragement and helpful tools for your wedding planning process! Planning a wedding is no small feat, so we have two giveaways going on today to help you plan your wedding, your way.
To enter to win, leave us a comment telling us about your most valuable wedding planning resource. Blogs, magazines, websites, books, professional references, family, friends?

Good luck!
Planning Your Wedding: A Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Your Perfect Day is the book that Blair, Kim and I wrote as part of the new Knack how-to book series. We worked hard to make it as helpful, encouraging, and stylish as we possibly could, and we packed it full of gorgeous photos to give you all kinds of inspiration for your big day!
Wiley Valentine’s wedding invitations are favorites of brides everywhere- their super creative designs are truly one of a kind! Another fun item they recently came up with? Custom marriage certificates to save as keepsakes! Genius! So much lovelier than the official paperwork, these certificates would look amazing as part of a wedding album or framed and hanging on the wall of your home.
The Be Wed Planner from Evotive is a modern wedding planner and organizer that helps make your wedding planning process organized, strategic, and personal to you. No matter what your budget, and whether youre planning the wedding yourself, or working with a consultant, this creative system has everything you need to keep you on track and feeling like you’ve got it all under control in one handy place!
If you’re changing your last name after your wedding, spare yourself a big, big headache, and don’t try to navigate all that paperwork alone! The Miss Now Mrs. Name Change Service supplys you with all the forms you’ll need for your state, an auto-fill feature so you only have to enter in your information once, specific instructions for proper filing, and fantastic personal customer service to help you through it all. Nice!
Nearlyweds wedding websites offers up creative wedding website templates (with matching invitations- how smart!) that are full of useful features and gorgeous designs.
