Loads of dresses, a Princess Bride cake, and a Bridethulhu sighting

There were loads of lovely dresses in the Offbeat Flickr Pool, the Offbeat Bride Tribe, and Pinterest this week. Sparkles, short and pink, elegant black, and giant flowers were the stand-outs. But that's not all: we also have an adorable ring bearer, “yay” flags, a Princess Bride cake, and another Bridethulhu sighting out in the wild.

As discussed here, we’re doing a two week test of new ad platform. If you have feedback, feel free to contact Ariel directly.

I don’t see anything thanks to adblock plus, you may want to try it if it gets too distracting.

Hey! That’s me!
The peacock fan was made by Etsy seller Ivyndell http://www.etsy.com/shop/Ivyndell
She also made three bridesmaids bouquets, my hair piece, the bridesmaids’ hair pieces, and the boys’ boutonniere. Basically all I did was send her pictures of the bridesmaids dresses and she picked the colors herself. They turned out FANTASTICALLY!
