Homegirl just came out with some bomb ass dresses.

You can buy them here.

Instead of boudoir photos...

I happen to believe that boudoir pics are THE best gift you can give your groom on your wedding day. They are hot, personal, and he will LOVE them. But, since we're all gangstas here, we're gonna take it to the next level. What could the next level be you ask?

Video.

I know you're thinking porn, but I'm not. I'm thinking classy, sexy, fun. Something like Ms. Daisy over here.

And shit, you could do this with a handycam, some windows, and you're favorite song.

A great idea

Leave it to The Broke-Ass Bride to come up with the freshest idea in a long time, Bride Share . Basically, you sign up with a profile and you can team up with other brides (and grooms) to share wedding decor/ideas with one another. You can split all the decor or buy used/recycle wedding stuff. Pretty neat, huh?

Sweet Cake

See? Cake toppers don't have to be complicated, expensive, or bootleg bedazzled. Sometimes bootleg is better.

And by the way, doesn't this cake look so much better than one covered in fondant? I'd rather eat this homemade goodness.

Wedding art

Florencia, is an Argentinian artist that manipulates wedding photos. I think she does some really amazing work and adds a really cool twist to old wedding photos.

Here's some more of my favorites:




It kind of inspires me to get better at photoshop.

Top 10 Wedding Classified Sites

There are so many FREE sites out there dedicated to helping brides reduce, reuse and recycle their wedding stuff. I mean, seriously, what are you really going to do with 30 identical vases and 200 votive candles? Here are my top ten favorite sites to get great deals on wedding things (often less than rental) and to sell your stuff.

1. Vintage Glam Weddings has its very own Flea Market specifically for weddings.

2. Recycle your wedding has an awesome site for brides to buy and sell to each other.

3. The Knot has a Trash to treasure board where brides post their items for sale.

4. Wedding Bee's classifieds section is super popular and has everything from decor to dresses.

5. Pre-owned wedding dresses- find dresses that you can't buy retail anymore for half the price.

6. Find a designer dress for cheap at Once Wed.

7. My Eco Chic Wedding's classifieds

8. Freecycle- it's kind of like Craigslist, but completely free. Everyone trades and donates various items in the community.

9. Bride to Bride Boutique - buy, sell, trade.

10. Craigslist - While everyone knows about this one, sometimes brides forget that you can get wedding decor here too! It's great for finding random decorations/furniture/whatever and very popular.
