Morning lovelies! Can I get a big cheer for the end of the week please……thank-you! That’s right, the weekend officially starts here, which is yay-worthy news indeed. Before I kick off my shoes however, and pour myself a well earned glass of wine; there is of course just one more thing to do…..Now, in the past, I perhaps haven’t talked about Chic Vintage Brides’ Pinterest page as much as I could, or even should have – although I am fairly sure I shared a certain mention in Vogue Paris once or twice! Mostly because with over 4,000,000 followers I have always thought many of you no doubt already know about it, and in fact found Chic Vintage Brides thanks to it. But I am sure an equal number of you have no idea of the inspiration awaiting you, right? And after hitting something of a milestone this week – my 20,000th pin! – I thought it was high time I let the rest of you in on this well kept secret. So this week’s Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons is all about Pinterest with my top 5 wedding pins of the last 7 days…..

Let me begin by saying…..Hello, my name is Amy and I am a Pinaholic! It is true, I am a complete and utter Pinterest addict – it is the first thing I look at in the morning and the last thing I do before I turn off my laptop at night. Ever since I discovered this little social network gem, I have been hooked! To me it is perfect, heaven itself. It delights and beguiles me, sates my hording needs, and never fails to inspire me…. in fact, I can’t help but wonder how I ever planned our wedding without it?!

Chic Vintage Brides Pinterest page now has over 150 boards packed full of wedding inspiration covering every aspect of planning your big day from dresses to venues; by era, colour, season and location….. wherever, whenever or however you are planning to celebrate your big day, I have a board for it 🙂 Oh and if I don’t, then let me know and I will start one! Anyway, here are my top 5 wedding pins of the last week…..

1. I just love how fabulously stylish and confident grooms are nowadays! Like the dapper Scott and his mates in this pin…..

2. How delicious does the dark chocolate wedding cake in this pin look? The pastel and pink flowers are so pretty too!

4. You can’t beat a gorgeous vintage car, like the one in this pin, for making a glamorous getaway to your vintage wedding!

5. And of course, after the getaway comes the Honeymoon! If you’re struggling for inspiration on where to go (or what to pack) take a look at Chic Vintage Brides’ Honeymoon board which is full of breathtaking vistas like the one of Cinque Terre, Italy in this pin…..
