We're swooped up in love over here in the EtsyLabs.  Anda's off to get married to Pete and we're all mushy and dreamy over it.   Especially since we saw Anda put her wedding dress together with the help of Benny of Burda  (who used to share space with us).  Anda used a Burda pattern to get started, but used her own brilliant design sensibilities to come up with a very modern, yet very classic and beautiful dress. 

 

We had a little surprise shower for them last week, which included Anda's favorite food at the moment:

 

I gave Anda an If'n Books photo album I knew she wanted thanks to Myregistry.com (Where you can create an online registry with items from Etsy!).

 

Being recently engaged myself I thought I should set up my own registry on Myregistry.com.  Seems like a great way to get your friends and family to buy handmade!  Here's some great handmade wedding items I've found lately:

                                                                 pretty pretty porcelain by  kimwestad

                                           silk pillows by pamelatang & lovely bands by PowderMillStudio

 

                   perfectly simple earrings by KathrynRiechert  & precious tissue holder by nest

 

               the sweetest accessories by  glowtiara & mod wedding albums by ecklectic

     silly and sweet custom invitations by  unbridledpress  &  silk custom ring bearer pillows by crrysstall

Now I just have to pick a venue, a dress, flowers, cake, guests and a few more little details.  Can't someone just set up an Etsy shop selling these things?!
