Engaged Couples Spend More Time Researching Topics and Interviewing Vendors than Actually Planning the Wedding
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) June 24, 2008 -- Today's newly engaged couples are overwhelmed with the excessive amount of "wedding resources" available to them. Many brides confess that they are lost in a virtual sea of wedding sites, blogs, magazines and articles. "I had no idea it was going to be this confusing getting married," confesses Heather, a newly engaged bride. "I have a stack of books next to my computer and a ton of websites saved to my favorites and I still can't figure out what I'm supposed to ask potential photographers!"
Viddia.com (http://www.viddia.com) company President, Michael Ripberger has a solution. "The community based wedding planning tools we're building at Viddia.com really open the lines of communication and promotes a free exchange of information about weddings." says Ripberger. "We're excited to introduce innovative new technology that helps couples plan their big day while also offering wedding professionals an easy way to demonstrate their expertise to local customers. It's amazing - the things that can happen when you give people the opportunity to help each other."
Viddia.com launches a web community that brings together couples with local wedding professionals in order to help them plan the perfect wedding.
