Memories

Looking for name change advice or some tips for newlywed life? The MissNowMrs experts have created state-specific name change articles and checklists for you. We’ve chronicled our recommendations for how to travel while changing your name AND how to handle voting during the transition.

We’ve also compiled our best guidance for how to handle difficult sister in laws, holidays as newlyweds, the ever-annoying baby questions, and much more. Why? Because, while we are name change experts, we’re also newlywed wives, moms, and sisters.

We hope our name change advice articles help smooth your transition to your new name, and a whole new phase of life. Congratulations and best wishes from the entire MissNowMrs team!

WedPics: The Coolest New Photo App For Weddings

As a newlywed, one of the very best things is looking through your wedding photos and re-living the amazing moments that comprised your big day. What about all the photos your guests took with their phones and the photo booth? Some will appear instantly on Facebook, but some truly amazing shots will never be shared. That is until WedPics was created.

This awesome new company allows brides to share a code with their guests via invitation inserts (which did we mention are free?) or via email. The code allows guests to access the bride’s photo gallery and instantly shares any photos taken with the super cool app. The result? Every moment from every angle of your wedding is shared instantaneously with the bride and all of her invited users.

Newlyweds boarding the flight for their honeymoon can scroll through the hundreds of photos guests take and get a feel for how amazing the experience was well before their photographer can email them proofs. Any photo in the gallery can be downloaded and printed by the bride…making album creation that much more fun and easy!

Having personally met the founders of WedPics (whom we heart) we couldn’t help but share this innovative new wedding technology with all of our soon-to-be bride and newlywed readers. Pass the word on ladies!! I wish I had WedPics when I got married.

Newlywed Love Is Art

We’ve all seen those inspirational art prints that have a great image and then an even better message. They were created to help people feel better and then gain perspective in their lives. Your newlywed and wedding photos have the same magic.

Looking at a picture that captured one of your happiest moments together as a couple can instantly transport you back to that day and all the emotions you were feeling: love, excitement, anticipation and even nerves. Filling your brain with a beautiful image and the emotions that go along with it is a great way to ensure that you carry positivity with you each day in your newlywed relationship. If you think about it, it is really hard to be mad at your spouse for forgetting to take out the trash when you look at them as the amazing person you walked down the aisle with!

The Photos to Art feature on Art.com will allow our winner to upload an image of her choice (be it wedding, honeymoon or even a favorite family photo) and translate it onto high-quality photographic paper or artist-grade stretched canvas.
