WeddingBook features photos, dresses, stylish wedding decor suggestions, fellow brides and grooms to chat with, a wedding countdown.  There is also a built in Wedding profile box, a guest book, wedding party RSVPs, engagement photos, wedding statuses, links to registries and wedding websites.

WeddingBook won a $250,000 grant from the fbFund in October 2008.  The financial details of the acquisition were not disclosed.  After the acquisition was made, TheKnot’s brand was integrated into the application.
