Chicago, IL (PRWEB) January 4, 2010

OneWed.com, the ultimate resource for wedding planning, today celebrates Matrimony Monday by inviting newly engaged brides to begin their own online planning. Because peak proposal time falls between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Eve, a significant number of new brides-to-be are jumping online January 4th to start wedding planning. According to The Wedding Report, more than 2.2 million weddings will take place in 2010 and 80% of couples use the internet to plan their wedding.*

On January 4th, visitors to OneWed.com will be treated to an array of new features, tools and a special wedding giveaway. Just in time for Matrimony Monday, OneWed is offering the following new features: free totally customizable wedding websites with hundreds of designs; wedding flowers to purchase and ship directly to you or your venue from Weddings by FlowerPetal; virtual tours of wedding venues courtesy of VFM Leonardo; a recently expanded gallery of wedding dresses with specialized search options; and a party planning tool to organize and host any wedding related celebration.

As an added incentive, OneWed wants to reward future brides with an “Off-the-Chart” Wedding Giveaway, providing a grand prize worth $15,000 of free wedding essentials including a honeymoon from Sandals Resorts, wedding bands from Whiteflash.com and dresses from The Dessy Group. The contest was designed to supply the winning couple with all the elements that aren’t included in a typical wedding budget. The giveaway runs through the month of January and brides can automatically enter by creating their own Wedding Pre-Party, the social networking platform that virtually connects the couple, wedding party, guests and vendors.

“We know the first days of wedding planning can be overwhelming for new brides-to-be,” says OneWed VP of Marketing Jennifer Napier. “Our goal at OneWed is to provide the ultimate wedding planning experience and make it both enjoyable and informative. We want Matrimony Monday to be exciting for newly engaged couples and we’re thrilled to celebrate the occasion on our site.”
