Oh, but what a week it has been!  Graduations and teacher’s gifts and vacation planning oh my!  I don’t know if your spring has been break neck speed like ours has been, but I am certainly glad for a long holiday weekend to slow the heck down and take in some family time.  Out to dinner, playing by the pool, and off to the beach – good times all over the place.

But we couldn’t let the week end without showing you some neat stuff we found during our travels up and down, back and forth this week.  So here you go, lots cool from The World of Wedding, starting with The News:

According to a survey by TheKnot.com, savvy brides are getting smart with their wedding budget cuts.
