Offbeat Bride t-shirts are back by popular demand — and with a new tagline! A very special thanks to Nicole for coming up with Altar your thinking!

At the suggestion of a clever OBT member, I'm offering the shirts for pre-order so that I can offer TWO colors instead of just one.

So now you can choose between two fabulous colors and sizes for everyone: little girls, big girls, and big boys too! I'm offering pre-orders at a discounted price: $20, which includes shipping. Shirts ordered up until 2/25 will be shipped by 3/7.
Pre-order yours today!

Remember mywedding.com? They were the offbeat monthly sponsor last August, and they've got a couple new features that y'all should know about:

1. Wedding invitations that match your website!
This is a feature that's really starting to take off on the web, and with good reason. It's nice to do one-stop visual aesthetic shopping, and mywedding.com's got a great selection of non-froof designs for both web and invites.

2. Social network wedding registry!
Mywedding.com partnered with a Seattle start-up called Wishpot, which allows you to create a wedding registry that goes across stores all across the web. You can add items from any online retailer — and yes, that includes Etsy! Then, your Wishpot registry displays automagically on your mywedding.com free wedsite. (Here's more about how Wishpot works.)

Head on over to mywedding.com and get started today on your free wedding website — and get in on some matching invites and cross-store gift registry.

Remember how in October I wrote about Blurb's wedding books? Well, as part of the promotion, Blurb let me try out their services for a free wedding book all my own.

Now, I made wedding books for my friends and family after our wedding in 2004, but I'd never actually made one for myself. I just knew the technology would get better, so I figured I'd hold off. And so, last month I finally sat down with Blurb's photobook software and made my own wedding book. If you want to hear about how it went and see how it looked (ooh, and get a discount to try it yourself), keep on reading.
