I really like WeddingWire.com. They seems to have the best planning site.
I thought http://1WeddingSource.com was the easiest website to help plan my wedding
I'm also surprised mywedding.com didn't make the list. I've found it to be the easiest to navigate for finding wedding vendors in my area and I really like their wedding websites.
Two sites I liked:
www.diybride.com - lots of fun, quirky ideas if you want to "do it yourself."
www.veilshop.com - amazing selection of veils, tiaras, etc., at decent prices.
I prefer Bridalguide.com, not as cluttered as the rest of 'em, and solid advice.
it's hard to believe they left Indiebride.com off the list. By far the smartest and most helpful wedding site around.
Weddingchannel.com is fantastic for a wedding website; check out this one: aspencerandjwaite.weddings.com
