Introducing Relishbridal

I love weddings. I love the dresses, the apparel, the romance, the music, and just about everything else about the big day. The rest of the world seems to love weddings as well, enough to sell cheap plastic swans at the dollar store and call it a party favor. Nothing against cheap, or swans, or plastic, but like holidays, weddings are commercially over the top. What happened to being creative with weddings? You really don't need to spend $2000 on flowers, photography, or a limo driver, but you can think outside of the commercial wedding cake and find unique ways to keep your wedding classy, gorgeous, and affordable.

And that's what Relishbridal is all about. Relishbridal is a new branch of my business devoted entirely to all things wedding. From today, this blog will offer tips and features that you can use when planning your own wedding, or planning one for a friend. We will feature everything from music selections and traditions to destination weddings and that crazy relative who is making everything difficult. The most important part of Relishbridal is that we are bringing back the joy of the occasion, and making the planning fun instead of dreadful.

Not only has Relishbridal already branched out through this blog, we will be adding jewelry lines, party favors, and hand-printed paper goods on Etsy very soon, as well as a quarterly zine you will be able to subscribe to.

Want to talk weddings? Join our forum! It's easy! Check out the Relishbridal forums at http://relishbridal.proboards80.com/. Anyone can join! The forums feature a variety of boards assorted by category.
