The Nest

The Nest (www.thenest.com) started out as an online community of girls grappling with the emotional issues–and enormous to-do list–that couples face in the first few years of marriage. Created by the number one wedding website The Knot, The Nest is a 24-7 virtual married-best-friend who’s been there before. The site, the magazine, and the thousands of just-married members dish out advice on everything from how to get your permanent roommate to pick up his dirty socks, to how to inspect a property when you’re buying your first home, to foolproof recipes for entertaining the in-laws. Unlike single friends (who don’t have the experience to give tried-and-true advice) or mom (who has lots of experience but tends to give too much advice), Nesties, as we call ourselves, share experiences free of charge–and free of the worries that come with real-world friendships.
The Nest has grown up into a weekly webzine, a book series, and magazine–all 100% committed to the phrase “happily ever after.”
