"I made one for my baby, and I think every engaged couple needs one, too!\nPinterestFacebookNULL\nPHOTO: Getty Images/Brand XA special e-mail address!\nBut why, you ask, when you already have a perfectly good e-mail address?\nHere&amp;#39;s why:\nYou can reach out to a bunch of vendors and not wind up with a spam storm in your regular inbox once the wedding&amp;#39;s over. Trust me. I e-mail wedding vendors often, and I get e-updates every time a photographer writes a blog post or a caterer introduces a new menu item. Annoying.\nYou can e-mail yourself wedding inspiration&amp;#8212;and not have 62 wedding dress pictures clogging up, say, your work e-mail account.\n__You&amp;#39;ll want to get everything in writing, and you&amp;#39;ll want to have it all in one place.__Any time a vendor offers you something, make sure you go back and confirm it via e-mail. When we were choosing the hotel for our hotel block, one offered us the hotel pool for the after-party. My mom (thankfully!) e-mailed the woman in charge to say, &amp;quot;Just writing to confirm that Kim and Rory can host a private event at the hotel pool from 11 p.m. until 2 a.m.&amp;quot; The e-mail was a life-saver (or a party-saver) when the hotel owner said, &amp;quot;I don&amp;#39;t think we would promise THAT&amp;quot; a few weeks later.\nYou&amp;#39;re going to need to open a Gmail account, anyway&amp;#8212;if you&amp;#39;re going to take advantage of this genius service!\nYou can e-mail all your guests from one account. Rory&amp;#39;s parents&amp;#39; friends might not know my last name, but if they got an e-mail address from &amp;quot;Rory and Kim&amp;#39;s Wedding!&amp;quot; they&amp;#39;d know to open it.\nYou can use it to create a log in for all those wedding sites&amp;#8212;and you won&amp;#39;t get stuck with e-mails from their advertisers (or those annoying &amp;quot;179 Days Until Your Wedding!&amp;quot; e-mails) in your regular inbox. You can also use it on all the sites where you want to register.\nWill you create an e-mail account for your wedding? If not, where will you store all the important wedding stuff? Regular e-mail account? Good old-fashioned binder?\nMore genius ideas:\n\n Genius Wedding Idea: Get THIS to Your Groom Before Your Wedding Ceremony \n\n\n Genius Wedding Idea: Outdoor Brides, You MUST Do This!\n\n\n Here&amp;#39;s an Easy Way to Write Your Own Super-Sweet Wedding Vows\n\nMore Ways to Get Glamour\nVisit Shopglamour.com for cute stuff starting at just $10!\nEnter the latest Glamour sweepstakes!\nFollow us on Twitter\nAdd us to your iGoogle homepage\nPhoto: Thinkstock"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
