I just know you will enjoy it as much as I do.

Bliss Faves: With This Ring

admin — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 15:08:14 +0000

Not only is the With This Ring blog a fantastic/adorable/super awesome resource for brides and grooms, but the author and creator, Darci, is one of the sweetest people I have had the pleasure of meeting. I feel silly for not knowing about it sooner, since we all know how much I love my blog reading! I recently met Darci at The Making Things Happen intensive in Chicago and instantly felt a connection to Darci’s kind words. (More on MTH coming VERY, VERY soon!)

You should definitely head on over and take a look at all of the adorable posts, advice and info that Darci has to share, but here are a few of my favorites if you are looking for a quick peek.

I am DYING to plan a surprise wedding! You must check out this adorable event that is featured on WTR blog, with even more adorable photos by Jason G Photography.
Quick, Easy, Gorgeous! One of my favorite parts about With This Ring is the Quick Palette posts. Love the seeing the colors from one photo broken down to create a beautiful color palette for events.
Delightful Information & Advice. Seriously, ask her anything.
