A Very Pinteresting Wedding

The world of Pinterest is one of fresh ideas and abundant creativity. It is a dreamers haven. Users come to Pinterest to post and organize new ideas and to browse through other people’s ideas on anything from home decor to food.

This article explores both sides of the coin with the app. While the app does offer insightful ideas for that upcoming wedding or keeping up with new fashion trends, it can also become a distraction for users as they waste time endlessly browsing. Getting addicted to Pinterest is definitely a big concern with using the app. One could spend hours and hours just browsing through things that just look pretty. It is like window shopping but you can curl up in bed and browse away. 

The term ‘Pinterest wedding’ has become a common phrase used as many people, --
engaged or otherwise—plan their weddings with similar styles. If someone is not even in a relationship but is obsessed with the wedding boards on Pinterest, it might be a bit of an unnecessary waste of time. However, it does indeed offer up countless creative ideas and could be useful when one finally does have to plan that wedding.
