"Planning a wedding with the votes of a million best friends, moms, and women across the Internet is going to be fun!" says Carley Roney, co founder of The Knot and host of the famed Today wedding series. "It is also going to be a gorgeous, one-of-a-kind wedding, and we look forward to seeing all the deserving, adorable couples who submit their stories!"

TheKnot.com is using Pinterest, the tool millions use to find their inspiration, to recruit its extensive community of "pinners" across the world to join in on the wedding planning fun! Every element (and the couple's reaction!) will be caught weekly on The Knot LIVE, a live-streaming TV show, with celebrity planner Amy Shey Jacobs and TheKnot.com editors sharing the latest wedding trends and asking the world to decide on everything from the dress to the 'do. Amy Shey Jacobs has planned numerous star-studded events for celebrities and A-listers, as well televised weddings on NBC's Today, The View and Oprah. Her firm, Chandelier Events, was rated an editors' pick in The Knot Best of Weddings and has been featured in People and Us Weekly.

Flight and hotel accommodations for the couple and 20 of their lucky friends and family will be provided by Expedia®, the largest online travel company in the world. MSN Living, The Knot Dream Wedding digital partner, will provide promotion to The Knot Dream Wedding, exclusive videos of the latest wedding trends and footage from the wedding.
