As if we didn't already L.O.V.E. Lover.ly enough, their new mobile app is exactly what it claims to be — like nothing you've seen before. At the tap of an app, you can like, share, and upload thousands of beautiful wedding photos.
It's the ultimate wedding search engine; it's extremely user-friendly, with crystal-clear photos and amazing detail. Brides, beware: Once you start clicking through the amazing photos you may not be able to stop (at least for a few hours)! You can use this app during any stage of your wedding planning, from finding inspiration for engagement photos and invitations to ceremony décor and honeymoon destinations.
On the bottom of your screen, there are four tabs: Featured, Explore, Add, and Profile. The "featured" section consists of the top photos from all the different categories. Under each photo, you can tap the "love it" icon (Loverly's equivalent of a Facebook "like"), add it to a bundle, share on Facebook or Twitter, or find out who photographed it.
Under "explore," you'll find two ways to browse — by category or by color. With 12 categories (accessories, beauty, décor, dresses, flowers, food and drink, gifts, intimates, jewelry, men, shoes, and stationery), it's a simplified version of the desktop site. While you can't browse by theme, it does have a search bar, perfect for busy brides who know what they want.
Favorite Features:
The colors section is a fabulous addition. In true Lover.ly fashion, instead of merely listing color names, the app displays them in a visually-stimulating way as a rainbow of gorgeous hues.
Lover.ly's new app also has an awesome interactive feature, where you can upload your own wedding photos straight from your mobile device. Whether they're actual photos from your big day or favors you saw while shopping and still need some time to decide on, the app will safeguard them in a private mobile uploads bundle so they'll never be lost.
Lastly, the profile section keeps a running tab of all the things that you "love" and any bundles that you have created.
Rating: 9.5 out of 10. This app is a great resource for brides. It displays the best that the wedding industry has to offer by highlighting professional wedding photographers and connecting you to a community of top bridal bloggers. It's easy to use and is chock full of bridal inspiration.
Go get inspired — I sure have!
