NearlyWeds.com - Getting Married? Document It All Here

Getting married? If you’re one of the many thousands about to cross the threshold, take a peek at NearlyWeds, a site dedicated to people just like you. You’ll get an ad free website with a blog (so you can share all your pre-wedding jitters and doubts), unlimited photos for before and after, online invites, pushpin maps to keep track of your guests, and sharing tools. NearlyWeds have come up with coordinated websites and invitations, so not only will you save money on paper invites, you’ll also get some points for style. Choose your templates from their large library. Add music, timelines, even have your guests create comments or entries. The cost for all of this: you’ll get at least two years of hosting for $50; test out the trial version first.

“Finding someone who you truly love and want to spend your life with, and make a life with, is at once both exhilirating and calming. And a ton of fun! To us, the best thing about a great relationship and a great marriage is that it enables and challenges you to be who you really are, to be authentic.

So when we thought about what we'd want in a web site for a couple preparing to marry, it came down to making something that lets the couple show who they really are. And since the web is a great way to interact with people near and far, and doing so amidst the hustle and bustle of life (not to mention wedding planning!) is often challenging, we wanted to make something as interactive and communal as possible. A site that looks great and is personalized to represent you.”

NearlyWeds provides a cool and simple platform for documenting your wedding and everything leading up to it. It would be a great pre-wedding gift. Especially nice features: unlimited photo storage and the guest invite management.

This seems a little self indulgent, and it’s something you could easily do without putting down $50. Anyone can start a blog which no one will read, especially if it’s all about the process of getting married. What happens after two years?
