    Definitely Both. I have a pinterest bored but I've also gone places with colour swatches to figure out colours!

    Definitely use both, I have a pinterest board but I am also very visual so I need to also see everything in person.

    I do both. I have a Pinterest account, and an excel spreadsheet but also I have a notebook as my wedding planner and scrapbook with pictures and inspiration

    Online mainly because it's so expensive to buy bridal magazines! I bought one right when I got engaged and that was it.

    Mostly online... especially Pinterest. However I do have an extensive collection of wedding magazines. I find that online is easier to find, collect and organize ideas and inspiration.

    Mostly online but I’ve definitely gotten some physical pictures that I like. The dress I have in mind is in the window of the bridal shop in the mall I work at so that’s physical lol

    Online (Pinterest) but I did manage to score some freebie bridal magazines at a bridal show.

    I buy the Martha Stewart wedding ones when they come out, and some of the Canadian wedding ones. Then the rest are screen shots on my phone

    Online for sure. Magazines are too expensive (although I do buy the occasional one), plus I can photo shop the colours to be the exact shades that I would love to have!
