a spin on the traditional wedding band


I saw this ring in an Etsy email and immediately thought weddingband!!

For me.

For Cam.

I don't care, I just want to see it as a weddingband. I'm not convinced the band has to be ultra-perfect and pretty and thin and blah blah blah...

this particular one is by Etsy seller metalsmitten and is unfortunately sold out right now. but I have a feeling it will come back in time. Or you can find one elsewhere. Or maybe this would just be the coolest engraving ever.
Thoughts? Did you go for a traditional or different weddingband? What about engraving? Did you do it? What did it say if you did?

I think I just met my new best friend

Seriously. She's on Weddingbee. And her name is ProudPeacockBride. Well, on there.

And she posted a response to someone else's wedding question with this link!!

Since I know alot of you aren't going to click the link to see what it is, I'll tell you:


It's a tutorial for how to make a CONVERTIBLE DRESS!!


What's that? I can MAKE the dresses I've been pining over for weeks? And a WHOLE LOT cheaper than I can buy them? Yeah, that's what I thought. Win ALL AROUND!


Check out the pictures:




It's that easy people! Seriously. I'm gonna start trying this NOW!




Take a look at this dress. Then click on over to the Twobirdsbridesmaid website. See any similarities?



Here's one of the styles in action!

So, yeah, I'm really excited!
