Every wedding needs brilliant ideas and Pinterest has them all! A recent study shows that more than 50% of brides are using Pinterest to translate their wedding day vision to planners, chefs, decorators and venue owners. For those of you not familiar with this genius platform, Pinterest is a bookmarking site where you can ‘pin’ , share or collect images and creating online pin-boards. One of the biggest features of Pinterest is sharing the boards with other people, an element which our Deliciously Sorted team uses on daily basis. When your board is shared with someone, they are able to view all the pins as well as pin photos to it. Most of our clients are based overseas so we get to share our ideas remotely while using shared boards. It helps us see what our brides and grooms have envisioned for their big day and manage their expectations. It is almost like a collage of cut out’s from the glossy magazines you kept under your bed in hope that one day they will become an inspiration for your big day!
