Budget Friendly Resources for Brides

I was browsing to find deals on some organza gift bags, and found this awesome website that has everything from decorative birdcages to glass apothecary jars to LED floralytes! Total diamond in the Internet rough. It's a GREAT resource for brides and planners that want to save money (who doesn't, nowadays?!) without sacrificing many of the fun details. The Specials section is especially good. Don't say I didn't warn you: www.save-on-crafts.com

Seeing this website reminded me of 3 amazing girls I met while I was in working in Orange County. I met Eva Chiou, Event Planner/Designer/Owner of Red Velvet Occasions while working with her on a wedding block of rooms. As is common in the wedding world, she introduced me to 2 more fabulous women, Henny Setiadi and Lucia Dinh of D*Lsh Design. They created Utterly Engaged, an E-Zine for the 'budget savvy bride with style'. It is CHOCK FULL of creative ideas, photos of fantastic table decor, and even photos and stories from real couples who ran the wedding-planning gamut and made it out with a unique, gorgeous, and budget-friendly wedding. Their #002 Issue, 'Eco Chic French Affair' is a must see for how to throw an organic looking, eco-friendly, provencal style event. I could see this being great for a stylish bridal shower. Eco-Gowns by Sarah Seven is also note-worthy. Become a fan at www.utterlyengaged.com
