Announcing the birth of our sister site: Offbeat Mama!

The average American wedding costs over $25,000. I encourage brides to find innovative, thoughtful ways to reduce their bridal budgets, and if you do choose to spend money, spend it on independent vendors and thoughtfully-made merch like the stuff below…

Thanks to Manolo for the Brides for pointing out that Volcom makes some damn styley tuxedos for your trendy little groom.

Described as having a modern fit (Never Teh Bride nailed it when she said "slim and kind of slouchy"), you can see the suits in action right here. The jacket and pants are both available on Amazon, for about $170 for the set.

Uber Angel Wedding InvitationsYou won't find many wedding stationers who divide their invites into categories like Rockabilly, Punk, Gothic, and FetishUber Angel is one in a million!

Danni founded Uber Angel (based in the UK) because, as she explains on her about page, while there are a few non-traditional stationers out there, most of them are focused on "black & purple with celtic or mythical elements." And while sure, that works great for a pagan wedding, it might not work for those of you who want tattoo-themed invites for your rock 'n' roll nuptials. In addition to her standard offerings, Danni also does custom commissions.

Offbeat promo: Buy Uber Angel invites and receive a 20% discount on extra stationery, table plans, place cards etc.

Check out Uber Angel and get inspired!
