Finally owning that I’m a more traditional bride: You are awesome and so am I
Offbeat Bride (both the book and the site) changed me a lot. I became more comfortable with who I am. I discovered fashions and subcultures that I had never known existed, but now love. I learned how to deal with stress, with family, with my own doubts. But because of this fabulous place, I also developed one of my biggest doubts about the wedding: was it going to be offbeat enough?
Wedding accessories (and classy weapons!?) from the Broken Plate Pendant Co.
Let me just start by saying, I knew that it was offbeat sponsor LOVE when I saw The Broken Plate Pendant Co‘s china knuckles that double as one bad-ass necklace! Juliet Ames is a Baltimore, MD crafter who makes The Broken Pendant Co.’s contemporary jewelry from recycled china. This jewelry is also a great option for brides and grooms who would like to incorporate recycled materials into their big day.
