"Having the world's largest curated collection of inspirational wedding pictures, etiquette answers, wedding venue listings, photographer portfolios, vendor reviews, new ideas and more is our greatest asset, but it is a challenge not to overwhelm our brides and grooms!" says Carley Roney, cofounder of TheKnot.com. "This new web design, combined with our new mobile site and top-rated wedding planning app for the iPhone, creates a more tailored, step-by-step, on-the-go experience personalized to each bride's needs."

Features of the redesign of TheKnot.com include:

• Step-by-Step Guide: The new left-hand navigation bar is a bride's personalized wedding to-do checklist, providing guidance on exactly what to do next. Every answer set of curated options is just one click away.
• Chic, Clean Design: A gray letterpress logo, larger images and more white space create an elegant new feel. 
• "My Palette" Homepage: Members see curated links based on their wedding style, as well as aspirational images curated to match their personal wedding palette. (Is pink your wedding color? Your homepage is now all pink inspiration!)
• Image Search: New robust search functionality delivers fast visual search results for every color, brand or category: "Purple," "bouquets," "feathers," "Monique Lhuillier," "St. Regis," "NYC photographers."
• Facebook Friendly: Members can now easily share images, poll their Facebook friends or mark their planning milestones on their timeline.
• Web-Wide Wedding Scrapbooking: The Knot "Love It" button helps brides easily clip their favorite photos from anywhere on the web into their planner on TheKnot.com.
