In the past, I've answered advice questions from folks who are like “We don't want to exchange rings! How do we do a ceremony without wedding rings?”
Well, here's one more idea to consider: a wedding anklet.
I don't know much about Russ & Daniela's wedding other than what I could glean from the photos from Australian photographer Angelina Potapova … but from what I could see, it looks like my kinda shindig.
(Also, I'm a big fan of the bride's embroidered dress.)
I’ve worn anklet bracelets for quite a while now. But for me they’re always ones I make from embroidery floss and wear til they fall off then make a new one.
I thought I really needed a special one for the wedding so I made one in our colors and then with some bright silver floss.

its not a new idea, but it is a pretty one!
*gasp* I am absolutely in love with that dress! Does anyone know where it’s from?
Yay for hippie weddings!!!!
I *heart* this wedding~
On the tv show 3rd rock from the Sun, the guy wanted a watch – b/c it’s round. So the world is your oyster, essentially.
To be honest, from the pictures, the dress looks as if it could have originally been a kimono.
I take it to be very fine crewel embroidery in the Jacobean style on linen. The groom’s tunic also appears to have fine embroidery and appliqued trim. I would be very interested to know if the bride did all of the needlework herself.
I could never do the anklet thing. Mostly because I would totally fall over if I had to stand on one foot in front of a bunch of people. 😉
would love a better view of that DRESS! from the display on the heart pillow, it looks like they had an assortment of love tokens and I think it’s great that she tied something into his dreds. looks like a fun time from the photos!
That wedding is fantastic, I love love love love the dress.
I’ve been looking for a wedding dress for several months. That is the most beautiful dress ever. I want to find something like that. Wonderful. And the anklet is a lovely idea.
