Anxiously Engaged..continued

FINALLY! it finally launched Sept. 19th in the afternoon. We've been lucky to not have too many bugs since it launched, and we're getting vendors on there slowly but surely! I'm just happy to have it up, and am obsessively checking it for new vendors. Once we get enough vendors, I'll be starting marketing the site to brides and grooms. It's exciting to have an idea, work hard for it, then see it actually come to fruition. (Well, maybe not fruit yet, maybe like tiny little sprouty green things barely popping out of the earth- but we'll get there). I think one of the best parts of the site are the beautiful temple shots I collected from different photographers. When you have time, browse around it.

anxiously engaged

So, some of you know that I've been working on a new business. My designer swore me to secrecy (i guess people steal good ideas all the time in this business), but since the site should be going up by Friday (cross your fingers), I think it's safe. Since June, I've been working, along with my awesome designer, on a new wedding planning website for LDS couples called "Anxiously Engaged": www.anxiously-engaged.com . It has been hard work, and a frustrating, stressful process, but hopefully, it will be successful. You can check out the "in progress" page now, and should be able to see the beautiful site in it's entirety no later than Saturday, Sept 6th. You can also check out the blog: http://www.anxiouslyengaged.wordpress.com/ . If you know anyone who is in a wedding business, or would want to advertise to lds engaged couples, feel free to send them there. Once it's up, any amount of traffic would be appreciated! I'm just happy it's almost done, as is Brandon, since it's kinda controlled my life since the idea first popped in my head. I'm gonna let it take root, and hopefully pay off the cost of the website, and then start over with a new website that is creating itself in my head. (that one you'll have to wait for details on...)
