We are excited to share our glowing endorsement from wedding expert and author, Sharon Naylor. Sharon used Wedding Mapper for her own wedding and was so happy with the experience that she recommended us in her high profile blog http://sharonnaylorweddings.blogspot.com/search?q=WeddingMapper.com and included this endorsement in the 3rd edition of her book ‘1001 Ways to Save Money and Still Have a Dazzling Wedding’ (due out in 2009):Sharon Naylor

“As a wedding author, I’ve recommended the top websites to my readers in all of my 35 wedding books, and when it came time to planning my own wedding, I knew my groom was going to LOVE working on the wedding maps with me. We opened up WeddingMapper.com, and we had a fantastic time entering our ceremony and reception site, the hotels for our guests, our own home for the rehearsal dinner — and it was so easy and efficient, with easy sends to our friends and family, easy updates, and the very fun attraction of satellite view which we and our guests loved! WeddingMapper saved us a ton of time (and paper!), getting our locations and easy To-and-From directions to our far-flung guests in record time. I highly recommend WeddingMapper to every bride and groom! You’ll love working on this together!” — Sharon Naylor, wedding expert and author of 35 wedding books, www.sharonnaylor.net

Sharon has written 35 wedding books that can be found online at her site, www.sharonnaylor.net.

Happy Mapping!

The response to our Do-It-Yourself Wedding Map Guides has been amazing.  And because of this we decided to add more icons to our free icon bank.

Do-It-Yourself Wedding MapThe buzz from brides is Do – It – Yourself (DIY).  Brides are DIY’ing everything from Save the Dates and invitations to hotel gift boxes and favors all in the name of cutting costs and putting a personal touch on their wedding.  We currently offer an inexpensive and convenient way to get a professionally done map to print for invitations via Distinctive Directions (http://www.distinctivedirections.com/), but we wanted to support the DIY community as well.   We are happy to add our new DIY Wedding Map Guide to the site.  This guide will give you step-by-step instructions on how to turn your already fabulous WeddingMapper map into a beautiful customized map that you can include in your invitations and hotel gift bags.  For all of you “computer challenged” brides, don’t worry, you only need to use WeddingMapper.com and Microsoft Word.  There are five different maps to choose from based on your style, skill level, and time frame.  And the best part is it’s FREE! Follow the link below to check out the new DIY Wedding Map Guide http://www.weddingmapper.com/DIY/wedding_map.
 

Happy Mapping!
