<p><em><a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/search/authors/mtraub/"><img style="float: right;" src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/07/michelle.jpg" alt="" width="101" height="156" /></a> </em></p> <p><br />This past weekend, I found myself in Washington, D.C. for its first snowfall of the season. There is something so pure and blissful about a white horizon that from childhood onwards elicits an intuitive desire to frolic. What better season to celebrate one's matrimony with exuberance? The luxury of a winter wedding inspires me to keep warm by dancing in the glow of candlelight. These <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/search/tags/etsy-finds/">Etsy Finds</a> explore the snowflakes of lace and frost of sweet confections.

2009-10-15T10:15:00-05:00brooklithttp://www.etsy.com/storque/spotlight/handmade-weddings-personalized-wedding-gifts-from-fashion-il-5566/

<div><img style="float: right;" src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/10/BrookMe.jpg" alt="" width="84" height="108" />I graduated from the <a href="http://www.fitnyc.edu/" target="_blank">Fashion Institute of Technology</a> with a BFA in Fashion Design. Illustrating was always my favorite part of the design process, but I was told repeatedly that there was no longer any demand for fashion illustrators.</div> <div><br /></div> <div><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=30548341"><img style="float: left;" src="http://ny-image2.etsy.com/il_430xN.89175406.jpg" alt="" width="286" height="249" /></a>I&rsquo;m now at the age where many of my friends are getting married, so I had to figure out the perfect custom gift to give them. I started drawing bridal illustrations of my friends for their wedding gifts. They&rsquo;d hang in their homes, friends and neighbors would see them and want one for themselves, and before I knew it I had a fledgling illustration business with brides and grooms being my core clientele.</div> <p>Whether it&rsquo;s a baby shower, engagement party, birthday or wedding, I pride myself on giving a gift that is so fabulous, personal, and creative that it nearly brings the recipient to tears. I&rsquo;m an artist, always have been. That being the case, gifts that really leave an impression usually involved me personally creating something or adding that special artistic touch to customize a store bought item.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Here are some of my favorite Etsy picks that would make perfect custom gifts &mdash; gifts that stand out from the crowd and have that personal touch.&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> <table border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>If you're interested in giving one of my custom drawings as a gift, feel free to Convo me. I have some <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5102441&amp;section_id=5702013">custom listings</a> in my shop with more details too.</p> </td> <td>&nbsp; <pre><p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=31457742"><img style="float: left;" src="http://postserver.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/10/Brooke_Hagel-_Lisa_copy.jpg" alt="" width="230" height="311" /></a></p></pre> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>For the engagement party (or as a congratulatory engagement gift), this adorable customized vase with your newly engaged friends' initials on it would be ideal. After all, a newly engaged and excited couple is reminiscent of young love. And what symbolizes that more than carving you and your sweetheart&rsquo;s initials in a tree or doodling your names in your notebook? By <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6840496">LittleRetreats</a>, $40.</p> </td> <td> <p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vt_related_1&amp;listing_id=31085074"><img src="http://ny-image3.etsy.com/il_430xN.90969279.jpg" alt="" width="257" height="342" /></a></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>As a bridal shower gift, one idea is to order monogrammed or custom stationery. Brides get a lot of help along the way in planning a wedding, so some nice custom letter pressed stationery would really come in handy, especially before the invitations and thank you cards are ordered. It&rsquo;s also her last few months of having her maiden name so why not feature it! By <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5363930">simplesongdesigns</a>, $27.</p> </td> <td> <p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vt_related_1&amp;listing_id=32231058"><img src="http://ny-image0.etsy.com/il_430xN.94817024.jpg" alt="" width="294" height="196" /></a></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>There are also many gifts to help the bride personalize the wedding day. One of my closest friends made charms and lockets that she incorporated by hanging from her bouquet. Each one had a memory or photo of her grandparents who had passed away, so they were there with her on her special day. These custom silhouette charms would be great to remember those who couldn&rsquo;t be there.

Have it embroidered with her new initials or new name and the wedding date. She will now have her something blue! <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5371345">EmbroiderybyLinda</a>, $10.</p> </td> <td> <p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vt_related_1&amp;listing_id=31905955"><img src="http://ny-image2.etsy.com/il_430xN.93726046.jpg" alt="" width="332" height="174" /></a></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>For the &ldquo;big&rdquo; wedding gift there are tons of options available to make it something special and truly unique to the couple. These custom hair portraits would be ideal for the artsy modern couple. And the couple portrait option would be great if you have a fantastic photo from their wedding. You do have up to a year to send your wedding gift, so it&rsquo;s perfectly fine to wait until after the wedding to have their gift made, especially if you're using wedding photos and making the gift all the more special.

Being raised by high school sweethearts, I learned firsthand the many special ways a couple can keep their love burning strong for over 30 years: home cooked family dinners, walks in the park and impromptu dances to old country love songs. These romantic moments instilled a twang deep in my heart.<br /> <br />One day, when that perfect man manages to lasso my affections, we'll have a wedding that celebrates the folks who taught me about true love and the importance of honoring passed down country traditions. It'll be a simple wedding, with plenty of handmade touches, a borrowed family heirloom, a worn piece of denim as our something blue &mdash; and of course, lots of lace and boot scootin' boogie.</p> <p>The <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/search/tags/etsy-finds/">Etsy Finds</a> below highlight just a few handmade and vintage pieces that will give your guests somethin' to talk about for years to come.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Honky Tonk Angel</h2> <p> <table border="0" width="560"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23458166"> Couture Eco-Friendly Wedding Dress </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23458166"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/a/ab6/0d9/il_200x200.65391639.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p>By <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://NaturalBridals.etsy.com">NaturalBridals</a>, $4800.</p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23458166">View Item</a> | <a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://NaturalBridals.etsy.com">View Shop</a></p> </td> <td> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=27898873"> Grand Ole Opry.

My parents were married at the height of disco glam, and my mother wore a hooded jersey gown lined with maribou feathers (very <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halston" target="_blank">Halston</a>). Now I find myself brushing up against racks of softly whispering tulle, analyzing the silhouettes of <a href="http://bit.ly/4bsjpr">perfectly coiffed wedding toppers</a>, and poring over photo albums of decades I've never known.</p> <p>As such, I can't help but take that old wedding adage <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedding#European_customs" target="_blank">"something old, something new"</a> into consideration for my oft-daydreamed <a href="http://www.etsy.com/category/weddings">wedding</a>. The only question is which kind of vintage bride would I be: a dreamy 1920s flapper, coy and classic 1950s gal, or a beehived Rat Pack tagalong of Vegas in the 1960s? Today's Etsy Finds are inspired by the stylish decades that set the standard for bridal glamor.</p> <p>If you're looking for vintage-infused nuptial eye candy, be sure to check out <a href="http://www.oncewed.com/real-weddings/?Theme=Vintage&amp;Color=Show+All&amp;apsel=yes&amp;as.x=32&amp;as.y=20&amp;as=Apply+Selections" target="_blank">Once Wed's Real Weddings section</a>.

<p><em>Julie Raimondi is the editor-in-chief of </em><a href="http://www.brides.com/local/new_york_metro/" target="_blank">Brides New York</a><em> and Cond&eacute; Nast&rsquo;s 15 other regional wedding magazines (known collectively as </em><a href="http://www.brides.com/local" target="_blank">Brides Local Magazines</a><em>), which have been featuring Etsy sellers on their pages for years. Julie&rsquo;s particular Etsy addiction has made her the butt of many office jokes; her magazines are a testament to her passion for original style (and so are the decorative, found-it-on-Etsy contents of her living room!). Julie knows that the options for bridesmaid and groomsman gifts are usually limited (which is probably why money clips and engraved jewelry boxes have been de rigueur for decades). But Etsy sellers create items that consistently fulfill her good-gift criteria by offering quality, originality, and customization opportunities.</em></p> <p><em> <table border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td><a href="http://www.brides.com/local" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/09/FW09NYCover_HiRes.jpg" alt="" width="253" height="337" /></a></td> <td><img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/09/julie_.jpg" alt="julie_.jpg" width="236" height="400" /><br /></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </em>The real style-makers are not the marquee names offering "witty" commentary on morning TV or the authors of glossy party-planning books. They are real brides and vendors who have the guts to do things differently. When I created Brides Local Magazines in 2005, I wanted to celebrate these folks, and show our readers creative, alternative ideas and options they won&rsquo;t see anywhere else. When I was asked to guest curate a selection of bridal party gifts, you can imagine my delight, then hours and hours of guilt-free browsing. There are a million things on Etsy that I would love to give or receive, but I forced myself to approach this task within the context of what brides and grooms are really after: a single, affordable item that appeals to a very broad range of tastes.<br /><br />Here are some of my favorites:</p> <h2>Bridesmaids</h2> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=30706375">Merit Badge for 'going out on a limb' </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=30706375"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/a/a73/d1e/il_430xN.89703444.jpg" border="0" alt="" /> </a></p> <p>Give <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://leemeszaros.etsy.com">leemeszaros</a>&rsquo;s merit badges for things like &ldquo;being sweet as pie&rdquo; or for &ldquo;going out on a limb&rdquo; &mdash; it&rsquo;s like graduating from bridesmaid scouts. $24.</p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=30706375">View Item</a> | <a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://leemeszaros.etsy.com">View Shop</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=27698260">Custom UnNaked Family of 5 - Peggie Style </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=27698260"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/a/ad8/488/il_430xN.79599656.jpg" border="0" alt="" /> </a></p> <p>If you have a whole family of helpers, a custom portrait from <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://nakedpeggies.etsy.com">nakedpeggies</a> would be an exceptional gift.

The golden harvest hues, crisp weather and rich foliage are a worthy muse for a sumptuous outdoor ceremony. Celebrate the bride and groom as the daylight fades, then gather around a roaring fire and begin the feast.</p> <p>Today's Etsy Finds honor three varieties of fall brides and their distinct styles. <a href="http://www.etsy.com/gift-guides/woodland-and-feathers/194">Woodland nymphs</a> and outdoor junkies should enjoy the primitive feel of an autumn rustic rendezvous. We salute the simple and romantic bride with a subtle fall collection of soft pinks and corals. <a href="http://www.etsy.com/gift-guides/shades-of-sapphire/205">September sapphires</a> and contemporary flair are the inspiration for the off the beaten path bride. Peruse <a href="http://www.etsy.com/gift-guides">Etsy's Gift Guides</a> and the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/category/weddings">Weddings Category</a> for more bridal inspiration and harvest splendor.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2><a href="http://www.etsy.com/gift-guides/rustic-redux/193"><strong>Autumn Rustic</strong></a></h2> <p> <table border="0" width="560"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p><strong><a

2009-08-20T10:47:00-05:00SarahSays, Vanessahttp://www.etsy.com/storque/spotlight/handmade-weddings-the-clueless-bride-4619/

<p><em>Etsy's very own lawyer, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/search/authors/sarahsays/">SarahSays</a>, is the biggest anti-bride I've ever met. She resisted getting swept up in the whole wedding hullabulloo. Arjay, her husband, took over most of the planning, while Sarah calmly shrugged and told us she just wasn't that into it. On the other hand, I know she loves Etsy, so I was very intrigued to see how handmade and custom items fit into her unplanned wedding planning.</em></p> <p>I was never the girl with the vision of her <span class="il">wedding</span>, so when we got engaged, I was overwhelmed and had no idea where to start. So many choices! Thank goodness for Etsy. Etsy makes it easy for even a clueless bride to find unique handmade touches that reflect the couple. In the end, everything came together and our Rochester, New York <span class="il">wedding</span> was fantastic.<img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/08/0727.jpg" alt="" /><br /> <br /> Our ceremony was held in a planetarium followed by cocktail hour in the Science Center&rsquo;s dinosaur exhibit and then the reception took place in a beautiful event room.</p> <p><img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/08/0527.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p>We set the scene early: this was not going to be a cookie cutter <span class="il">wedding</span>.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/08/0677.jpg" alt="" width="356" height="534" /></p> <p>Our <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28091189">poster invitations</a> (which arrived in tubes!) were custom made by <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://unlesssomeonelikeyou.etsy.com">unlesssomeonelikeyou</a>. <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://invitedink.etsy.com">invitedink</a> makes these beautiful <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_1&amp;listing_id=7096284">letterpress invitations</a> that we also had our eye on.</p> <p><br /> <table border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28091189">Wedding Invitation/Reception Poster <br /> </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28091189"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/e/e2f/847/il_200x200.80922308.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p>By <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://unlesssomeonelikeyou.etsy.com">unlesssomeonelikeyou</a>, $75.</p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28091189">View Item</a> | <a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://unlesssomeonelikeyou.etsy.com">View Shop</a></p> </td> <td> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=7096284"> Wedding Invitations Scroll of Love - 100 sets </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=7096284"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/9/99a/208/il_200x200.24240352.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p>By <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://invitedink.etsy.com">invitedink</a>, $695.</p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=7096284">View Item</a> | <a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://invitedink.etsy.com">View Shop</a></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </p> <p><img style="float: left;" src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/08/0555.jpg" alt="" width="276" height="368" /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>We all know a bride needs a dress.

<p><em>Emily Newman, like many brides, learned a lot from the process of planning a wedding. She put that knowledge to use and launched <a href="http://www.oncewed.com/" target="_blank">Once Wed</a> in 2008. At first, it was a free listing service for wedding dresses online. Emily has since grown the site to be far more today: <a href="http://www.oncewed.com/" target="_blank">Once Wed</a> is a resource for connecting with incredible vendors, finding creative ideas &mdash; and what really sucked us in &mdash; sharing the most amazingly inspiring styles through real wedding photos. We know our <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/search/tags/Handmade%20Weddings">Handmade Weddings</a></em><em> readers are going to drool over this special</em><em> post! Here's Emily...</em><br /><br />I was so happy to receive Vanessa and Alison&rsquo;s invitation to guest blog on Etsy because so much of Once Wed is about handcrafted art and design. So, to share my passion with you guys and feature some of my favorite real weddings is a special honor.</p> <p><strong>Ginny &amp; Ed's Roaring Twenties</strong></p> <p><img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/08/ginny-and-ed.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br /><em>Images from board by <a href="http://joshgoleman.com/" target="_blank">Josh Goleman</a></em><br /><br />Ed and Ginny were married in '20s style under a canopy of 100-year-old oak trees surrounded by close friends and family at a lovely farm called Serenbe.

<p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/authors/TeenAngster/"><img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/02/alison_.jpg" alt="" width="88" height="131" align="right" /></a></p> <p>I've often thought about how my ideal wedding would play out &mdash; there would be plenty of navy blue, a bouquet of <a href="http://bit.ly/PXI0E">succulents</a> and <a href="http://bit.ly/rcVU1">ranunculus</a>, a <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5062087">melabo</a> wedding topper (with me and my boo as raccoons), a 1930s style dress, a photo booth, and red velvet cake for<em> days</em>. In short, it would be a wedding that fits my particular tastes.</p> <p>Weddings should be personalized, eclectic affairs that celebrate the dynamic of the couple. However, not every courtship is full of sweetness and pastels &mdash; some are composed of moonlit walks, trips to the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%BCtter_Museum" target="_blank">Mutter Museum</a>, antiquing for tintypes and a mutual appreciation for the color black. If you have an affinity for <a href="http://bit.ly/CLje0">Gothic tones</a>, dramatic <a href="http://bit.ly/11kxaV">film noir</a>, or <a href="http://bit.ly/16MEsJ">Victorian</a> tailoring, this wedding collection is for you!</p> <p>Today's Finds are inspired by <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/weddingplans/12809680.html" target="_blank">io's southern Gothic wedding</a>, which was held in the Old Medical College in Augusta, Georgia. Her pink and black themed nuptials are positively awe-inspiring, and a perfect example of an alternative wedding style (check out her bat cake!).

There&rsquo;s still time to prepare for an organized and eventful fall. Seize the moment to start thinking about an exciting new wardrobe (layers and sweaters and boots, oh my!), as well as the tantalizing feel of fresh notebooks and scholastic accoutrements.

The new time is July 16 at 4 p.m. ET</em><em>.<br /></em></p> <p>Over the past 23 years, I have watched as wedding photography has evolved into one of the most well-respected and lucrative fields in the industry today. I&rsquo;ve worked at Photo District News (PDN), a trade magazine for professional photographers, since 1986 and currently work there as deputy editor. While not a wedding photographer myself, I do assign and write many, many articles about wedding photography; I help judge PDN&rsquo;s <a href="http://topknotscontest.com/" target="_blank">Top Knots New School of Wedding Photography Contest</a> every year, and I recently collaborated with the top 20 photographers around the country to write my first book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0817459103?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=etsy-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0817459103" target="_blank"><img style="float: left;" src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/06/Wedding_Photography_Unveiled.jpg" alt="" width="305" height="395" /></a><em>Wedding Photography Unveiled</em> (Amphoto Books/March 2009). It was important for me to write this book because the industry has changed so much over the years, going from staid and stoic poses to purely candid photojournalist shots to a current, and much sought after, mix of photographic styles and approaches, including fashion-forward looks, lifestyle and editorial feels, and fine-art touches. Wedding photography has never looked better!</p> <p style="text-align: right;"><em>Portrait photo by &copy; Daryl Lang.</em></p> <p><em>We bounced some frequently asked questions off of Jacqueline. Here are some of the tips she has for couples searching for a great wedding photographer:</em><br /><br /><strong>I'm engaged! When is a good time to start looking for a photographer? </strong><br />The sooner you start, the better, since the wedding photography is such an important element of your special day; it&rsquo;s something you will look back on and cherish forever. Even if you don&rsquo;t book someone for another year (once a date is set), it still can be helpful to start looking as early as possible to decide the style you want, the price range you can afford, and so on.</p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><em>&copy; Jose Villa</em></span></span><br /><br /><strong>Where does one look?</strong><br /> These days brides get inspiration for their wedding photography from a variety of sources:</p> <ul> <li>Bridal and fashion magazines (high-fashion looks are a big trend in wedding photography right now)</li> <li>Photographers&rsquo; websites (You can find national, as well as and international, listings for wedding photographers at the <a href="http://www.wpja.com/" target="_blank">Wedding Photojournalist Association</a>, the <a href="http://www.perfectweddingguide.com/" target="_blank">Perfect Wedding Guide</a> and <a href="http://www.theknot.com" target="_blank">The Knot</a>.)</li> <li>Your family&rsquo;s and friends&rsquo; wedding albums</li> <br /> </ul> <p><strong>How is it possible to tell the caliber of a photographer? What should I ask to see? </strong><br />You definitely have to shop around, see what&rsquo;s out there, check reputable sites (like those above) and just look through lots and lots of images. When you meet with a photographer, ask to see finished albums so you can see what they&rsquo;ve done for previous clients. Online, you can also put his or her name into a search engine and look for comments (good or bad) from past clients. <br /><br />Also, ask the photographer to show you more than one wedding album and more than one style. These days photographers are shooting a mix of traditional and candid images, and they need to excel in several different genres: still life (for important details), fashion, lifestyle, and photo journalistic looks (for candid moments).<br /><img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/06/Tobi_9780817459109_a3E2A7A_.jpg" alt="" /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><em></em></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><em>&copy; Elizabeth Messina</em></span></span></p> <p><strong>Is it my responsibility to do anything for the photographer while the wedding/reception is taking place? </strong><br />You should have a conversation with your photographer well ahead of time so you don&rsquo;t have to be giving directions while the wedding and reception are taking place! This is your day and you don&rsquo;t want to spend it working out the kinks: that&rsquo;s what wedding planners and maid of honors are for!&nbsp; Many brides like to supply a shot list to a photographer ahead of time that maps out exactly the photos they want the photographer to get; others hire photographers who shoot purely documentary and candid images and are very &ldquo;fly on the wall&rdquo; &mdash; you don&rsquo;t realize they are present, but they are and they are getting every single moment that unfolds. <br /><br /><strong>How long after the wedding does it typically take before I get my photos? </strong><br />It depends. First you&rsquo;ll see proofs, which many photographers post online days or weeks after the wedding. Next, you&rsquo;ll choose the images you want (I recommend going to the photographer&rsquo;s studio to discuss your choices in person), and then an album can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months to sometimes even a year. Ask up front how long it will take before you can expect your albums.<br /><br /><em>Since Etsy has a lot of great photographers, we figured some of </em><img style="float: right;" src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/06/Tobi_9780817459109_a3E2A75_.jpg" alt="" width="236" height="354" /><em>you may be thinking about shooting weddings. We asked Jacqueline for some tips about getting started in the business:</em><br /><br /><strong>How do I go about breaking into the business? </strong><br />I recommend taking workshops from professional photographers (pros like Dennis Reggie, Joe Buissink, Bambi Cantrell, Mike Colon, Elizabeth Messina and Jose Villa are the more popular choices), going to trade shows and attending seminars, ordering DVDs on the basics and searching web sites like <a href="http://www.digitalweddingforum.com" target="_blank">DigitalWeddingForum.com</a>, <a href="http://www.wpja.com" target="_blank">WPJA.com</a> and <a href="http://www.wppionline.com" target="_blank">WPPIonline.com</a> to get a sense of what the latest trends and technology in the industry are the moment. Also ask friends who are getting married if you can be a &ldquo;second shooter&rdquo; (but stay out of the way of the hired photographer!) and just take as many images as you can to see what the pace is like and what it really takes to be a great wedding photographer. You&rsquo;re working 8 to 10 to 12 hour days, and after wedding day you are still working on a job for weeks and months &mdash; proofing images, doing post-production on the computer, designing the albums, etc.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: right;"><em><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">&copy; Christian Oth</span></span></em></p> <p><strong>How does wedding photography differ from other kinds of photography? </strong><br />Today&rsquo;s wedding photography is not different, just expansive &mdash; it includes many different genres (fashion, lifestyle, editorial, fine art), and these days you need to have a basic knowledge of all of them to shoot the day as it unfolds, from capturing the getting ready shots to the ceremony photos to formal and semi formal portraits after the ceremony to the wedding reception.<br /><br /><strong>What are some of the tricks of the trade? Are there any special tools?</strong></p> <ul> <li>During the reception, lots of photographers like to use fast lenses, fast film and high ISOs, because most times these parties take place at night in low light conditions.</li> <li>Befriending the videographer always helps because you can use their light in a shot. (Try to stay at a 45-degree angle from the videographer&rsquo;s direct light or try to keep him or her directly behind the wedding couple to use as a backlight during their first dance.)</li> <li>Never use direct flash. Bounce off the ceiling or tent, or slave a second strobe remotely for depth.</li> <li>Instead of using a tripod, try to steady yourself by shooting a few images in a burst. With a camera like the Canon 5D, you can shoot with higher ISOs without too much noise and can steady yourself to half-second handheld for images at dusk.</li> <li>When shooting formal portraits, mix it up a bit and take the couple outside and find interesting locations or settings and to make the shot more memorable. </li> <li>As for special tools, you can probably start out shooting a wedding with just one camera, like a basic or mid-range SLR, but as you become more and more advanced, you&rsquo;ll personalize your equipment list. (And it always helps to have a handheld light meter, lots of memory cards and extra batteries on hand.) Later on, you may want to get into post-production on your computer to further enhance your images (many photographers like to use a photo-editing program like Photoshop to adjust skin tones, brighten the sky, or just make an image more dramatic or vivid.)</li> <br /> </ul> <p><strong>How can I prepare for the unexpected? </strong><br />I don&rsquo;t think you can. That&rsquo;s the beauty of a wedding. There will be lots of unexpected moments that arise, but fortunately for the photographer, most couples want those images too. You are there to document the day as it unfolds. You can always edit out the bad images later on!</p> <p><em>Please mark your calendars and meet Jacqueline in the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/virtual_labs.php">Virtual Labs</a> for a follow up chat. </em><em>UPDATE: We must postpone this discussion. </em><em>The new time is July 16 4 p.m. ET</em><em>..</em><em>. </em><em>If you think of questions for her, please post them in the comments below! </em></p> <p><em>Getting ready to say "I do"?

A very unique wedding. I spend all day, every day on Etsy (since I'm an editor of Etsy's blog, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/">The Storque</a>), and my husband Mickey is a cartoonist and designer, so between the two of us, equipped with our crew of crafty friends and family members, we strove to incorporate as many handmade and vintage details as possible.</p> <p>This post came about because our wedding photographer was submitting his portfolio to blogs and magazines, and much to my surprise, Martha Stewart Wedding's editors chose to feature our wedding online &mdash; see their post <a href="http://blogs1.marthastewart.com/weddings/2009/07/real-wedding-vanessa-mickey.html#more" target="_blank">here</a>. This is all very convenient, since Etsy is doing a <a href="http://contributors.marthastewartweddings.com/portal/contestGallery/wedding-crafts" target="_blank">wedding contest with Martha Stewart</a> this summer. Most of all, I'm excited because I get to talk up all the creative Etsy sellers with whom we worked and share some insider tips with you. Our wedding was the best day of my life, and I owe so much of that to Etsy sellers.</p> <h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Clothing</strong></h2> <p style="text-align: center;">Check out the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/gift-guides/wedding-attire/168">Wedding Attire Guide</a> for more finds.</p> <table border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p><img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/06/clothing_.jpg" alt="" width="300" /><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=20719198"><br /></a></p> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=22941126">Rubypearl Children's Party Dress </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=22941126"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/8/8f0/247/il_200x200.63664932.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p>My niece Sabina Edwina le Bon Bon Bertozzi was our fabulous flowergirl.

You can use a 3" hole punch, a compass, or trace the rim of a cup.</p> <p><img style="float: left; border: 0;" src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/06/_01-pdf.jpg" alt="_01-pdf.jpg" width="400" /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Fold the circle in half, into quarters, and finally into eighths, until you have a little triangle.</p> <p>Once folded, use scissors to round out the the top.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><img style="float: right;" src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/06/_02-pdf.jpg" alt="" width="400" /></strong><strong>Step Two:</strong></p> <p>Remove one and one-half petals as indicated and glue flap<strong> A</strong> to the underside of petal<strong> B</strong>.

Pinch the tape at the top under the blossom and while holding the tape taut with one hand, slowly rotating the stem between the thumb and forefinger until the stem is covered.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Step Six:</strong></p> <p>Lather, Rinse, Repeat, for as many of these gorgeous flowers as you need, and then arrange them as you see fit. Maybe just a few for a boutonniere or for a gift bouquet for a special someone you are hoping to woo. Make a whole bunch for a full bouquet for your wedding or to brighten up any room any day!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong><a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/search/tags/Handmade%20Weddings">&nbsp;Read More Handmade Wedding Posts</a> | <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/search/tags/How-Tuesday">More Crafty How-Tuesday Projects</a></strong></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Visit the <a title="Plants and Edibles" href="http://www.etsy.com/category/plants_and_edibles">Plants and Edibles</a> &amp; <a title="Weddings" href="http://www.etsy.com/category/weddings">Weddings</a> Categories</strong></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong><a href="http://www.etsy.com/gift-guides/weddings-and-celebrations/107">Hand-picked Items for Your Big Day</a></strong></p>

<p><a href="http://100layercake.com/blog" target="_blank">100 Layer Cake</a> is a creative collaboration between friends and fellow designers Jillian, Amanda, and Kristina. We are a unique resource for creative, crafty, thoughtful, modern women planning their weddings or just their lives. We love projects, photography, details, and of course everything handmade! Supporting independent designers, artisans and vendors borders on obsession for us, and we're super excited to share some of our finds here.</p> <p><em><img src="http://www.etsy.com/storque/media/bunker/2009/06/100LC_colorboard13_etsy.jpg" alt="100LC_colorboard13_etsy.jpg" />(Credits: left to right, top to bottom:<a href="http://ffffound.com/" target="_blank"> Ffffound</a>, <a href="http://blog.so-sage.fr/" target="_blank">So*Sage</a>, <a href="http://scottclarkphoto.com/" target="_blank">Scott Clark Photo</a>, <a href="http://www.busarg.com.ar/boletos.htm" target="_blank">BusARG.ar</a>, <a href="http://www.bellafigura.com/" target="_blank">Bella Figura</a>)</em></p> <p>One of our very favorite features of our blog is our inspiration binder. We're so into creating color boards based on unexpected palettes and interesting moods and themes. They've become so popular with our readers we thought we'd share a new one here, and then search for things we'd use if we were planning a wedding (or party) based on this board.&nbsp; <br /><br />We love the bright, vintagey colors of this palette and the modern French sensibility that it evokes.</p> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26382874">Carnival Party </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26382874"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/a/a6f/088/il_200x200.75198869.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p>First we start with the dress. We <em>love</em> this one by <a href="http://ouma.etsy.com">Ouma</a>. Sometimes the bride needs to totally toss tradition and just wear what she wants. If she's the right kind of girl, stripes and tulle would be perfect! Plus she could probably wear it again. Maybe. Which would be nice. $168.</p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26382874">View Item</a> | <a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://ouma.etsy.com">View Shop</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25601839"> Happiness Headband<br /></a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25601839"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/f/f54/164/il_200x200.72585635.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p>You'd think we'd have tired of the headband craze and this point, but no: we still love them. This one by <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://ciaraobscura.etsy.com">ciaraobscura</a> (in its aqua and poppy glory) caught our eye. It's probably not for the bride in her black dress, but possibly perfect for a bevy of maids or a pair of flower girls. $36.</p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25601839">View Item</a> | <a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://ciaraobscura.etsy.com">View Shop</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26258244"> Paris Birdcage Tags in Blush Pink and Black </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26258244"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/c/c88/2c1/il_200x200.74782043.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p>Perhaps for escort cards? These could be pretty cute hung from a line through a garden. <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://digitalpaperie.etsy.com">Digitalpaperie</a> has TONS of cute tags and graphics to mix and match. $4.75.</p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26258244">View Item</a> | <a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://digitalpaperie.etsy.com">View Shop</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23431856"> Coral Fan Pattern - 4 Mini Pillow Boxes </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23431856"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/4/4c5/9f4/il_200x200.65302946.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://fieldandsea.etsy.com">Fieldandsea</a> has a great shop with tons of pretty paper products.

We love Etsy for its handmade market, but it's also such a good resource for <a href="http://www.etsy.com/category/supplies">craft supplies</a>. <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://angelaliguori.etsy.com">Angelaliguori</a> has some good stuff. $16.</p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=17138516">View Item</a> | <a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://angelaliguori.etsy.com">View Shop</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=14122719"> Calligraphy Envelope Addressing </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=14122719"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/e/eec/cb9/il_200x200.37401102.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p>We are always in awe of really good calligraphy, and we love that Etsy has become a place for brides to find so many talented artists. You can find every single style in the marketplace, but for this particular theme, we'd go for this classic look form Della Carta Studio. By <a style="color:#0192b5" href="http://dellacarta.etsy.com">dellacarta</a>, $4.50.</p> <p><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=14122719">View Item</a> | <a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://dellacarta.etsy.com">View Shop</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><a style="color:#0192b5;font-weight:bold" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25876877"> VINTAGE Hand Crocheted Trim with Vintage Key </a></strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25876877"> <img src="http://images.etsy.com/all_images/c/c63/670/il_200x200.73506676.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="200" height="200" /> </a></p> <p>We can't resist posting a few <a href="http://www.etsy.com/category/vintage">vintage</a> finds as well. There are so many carefully curated shops on Etsy that it's impossible not to find yourself lost among the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/search_results.php?search_type=category&amp;category=vintage&amp;search_query=vase&amp;order=most_relevant">vases</a>, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/search_results.php?search_type=category&amp;category=vintage&amp;search_query=jar">jars</a> and <a href="http://www.etsy.com/search_results.php?search_type=category&amp;category=vintage&amp;search_query=linen">linens</a> (as well as the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/category/supplies">supplies</a>).
