Brenda's Wedding Blog has a new home . . .
www.brendasweddingblog.com

I have many new wedding items and Real Weddings to share with you - but I'm putting the finishing touches on the re-launch of my new blog at a new address. Fingers crossed that tomorrow will be the big day. Since I've been working so much on the new blog the past few days, the monthly newsletter for Best Wedding Sites will be a couple of days delayed. But, rest assured it will be coming if you are signed up to receive it. I think you will love the new blog, the new little features it will have and some that will be coming down the road.

PS: If any photographers have pink weddings or photos they would like to share, please email me. brenda{at}bestweddingsites{dot}com

I've recently been in touch with Melissa of Tirado Photography in Boston and just loved these 2 photos they took at a recent wedding. Their perfect for my "something pink" post in honor of breast cancer awareness. Be on the lookout for a beautiful Real Wedding in the next day or 2 from the husband and wife team that specialize in wedding and portrait photography for Boston and the New England Area. You can see their web site here and their blog here.
