 One of my Etsy pals introduced me to ArtFire this morning - I can't believe I haven't heard of it until now! During the tour of this interactive handmade market place and craft community, I found it to be very user friendly. Potential buyers are able to enter search strings in several different markets like handmade, vintage, and design. ArtFire also offers a listing of categories that one can search under such as free shipping, colors, and sales. Under the “ArtFire Trends and Ideas” section, there is a link to “Handmade Weddings” that features all things wedding. Perfect if you are looking for handcrafted bridal dresses/accessories and wedding décor. I have found the ArtFire community to be very similar to Etsy with a few differences here and there. If you can’t find what you are looking for on Etsy, I definitely suggest trying ArtFire as another outlet. LINK: www.artfire.com I am very excited to announce our new partnership with The Knot Wedding Shop. Not only does The Uncommon Event have presence in The Knot wedding community, but we have also teamed up with The Knot Wedding Shop to share their unique product line featuring many different creative, personalized, and affordable wedding supply options. Whether you are looking for favor ideas, wedding décor, or bridal party gifts, The Knot Wedding Shop is your first and last stop for all of your wedding supply needs!

 Create an unforgettable memory of your wedding day with the beauty of a butterfly release. With many ceremony sites prohibiting the use of throws like rose petals and birdseed, the butterfly release is an elegant no-mess alternative that will certainly have your guests in awe! There are several options when choosing your butterfly release method. House the butterflies in a beautifully decorated cage and have it opened in front of the bride and groom just after they are pronounced man and wife. Or, surprise your guests by covering the butterflies in an attractive box before the big release. You can also involve your guests by giving each of them an engraved envelope with a butterfly inside, which they will release upon instruction. Here are two websites to consider when placing your butterfly order: www.berkshirebutterflies.com www.butterflyreleasecompany.com Before you place your order, make sure that you read the website’s FAQ section regarding required butterfly release timing and temperatures.

 Personalized water bottles are the perfect choice for those outdoor summer weddings or for those weddings that go so late into the night that the guests will need water from all of that partying! There are many websites that sell these customized favors in various sizes and label designs. Try: www.beau-coup.com/personalized-bottled-water.htm www.myweddingfavors.com/wedding-water.html http://weddingshop.theknot.com/weddingwarehouse/homepage.aspx www.bottleyourbrand.com/custom-water While these websites do all of the work for you, the shipping costs can run very high because of the heavy weight of the water bottles. If you can't swing the high shipping costs or if you are a DIY kind of bride, you will be pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to customize water bottles for your wedding. If you choose the DIY route, you are going to need water bottles with the labels removed and blank labels. I suggest ordering weatherproof labels from www.onlinelabels.com. They will withstand smudging when submerged in ice or water. Use Online Labels' Maestro Label Designer (trial always provided with a new order) to design your personalized labels. Then, simply print from your inkjet/laser printer and affix to the water bottles. Not sure how to design your label? Try using a monogram or the design from your invitations as a start. And don't forget to print test pages before the bulk print! | Inspiration BlogBookmark us to your favorites to keep posted on updates of the latest inspirational trends and events!
