What is the ONE tool that has been most essential in your wedding planning? For me, it is my computer!! (After all, it is the easiest way to access weddingbee!) I use it for everything– storing pdfs of my contracts, inspiration pieces, invitation design, etc.

So, when my 11 month old puppy decided to play in the living room resulting in the demise of my favorite machine, I was devastated. (The computer was not repairable- some of the damage included a Coke being spilled on it. Goodbye motherboard!)

Thankfully, I religiously back up my wedding files! Although it took a couple weeks to get a new computer (thank you Dell drop spill warranty for completely replacing it free of charge!) and I didn’t get to plan during them (I still accessed the bee at work and via my ipod), everything was ALRIGHT!

Please use this as a friendly reminder to backup your wedding files! Especially if you have just completed a large project!

Yeah sorta the same thing happened to me, except I hadn’t had a backup.  Luckily I was still at the looking stage, but I lost a lot of bookmarks of places.  After my computer was repaired, I decided to keep a journal both on paper in a notebook and on a website of all the places I was considering and when I started to meet with vendors, a small recap of what my thoughts (and my hubby’s thoughts) were of them – again in 2 places.
