Item 8.01. Other Events.

      As previously disclosed, on June 5, 2006, The Knot, Inc. (“The Knot”) entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with WeddingChannel.com, Inc. (“WeddingChannel”), IDO Acquisition Corporation (a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Knot) and Lee Essner (as the WeddingChannel stockholder representative) to acquire WeddingChannel in a merger transaction (the “Merger”) pursuant to which WeddingChannel will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Knot.

      Also as previously disclosed, on July 10, 2006, the Knot issued and sold 2,750,000 shares of its common stock in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) to three institutional investors at a price of $18.25 per share. The proceeds from the Private Placement will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures.

      The Knot has prepared certain pro forma consolidated financial information (“Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information”) relating to the Merger, the Private Placement and the proposed offering by The Knot of 3,500,000 shares of its common stock (the “Public Offering”).

      The Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information is a presentation of historical results with accounting adjustments necessary to reflect the estimated pro forma effect of the Merger on the financial position and results of operation of The Knot and are presented for information purposes only. The Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information does not reflect the effects of any anticipated changes to be made by The Knot to the operations of the combined companies, including synergies and cost savings and does not include one time charges expected to result from the merger. The Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information should not be construed to be indicative of results of operations or financial position that actually would have occurred had the Merger been consummated as of the date indicated or The Knot's future results of operations or financial position.

      In addition, certain information relating to WeddingChannel is being disclosed in the Registration Statement relating to the Public Offering filed today by The Knot.

      The Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference into this report. Certain information relating to WeddingChannel is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated by reference into this report.
