Etsy.com

I used etsy.com for numerous things including invitations, my unity candle, hair accessories, etc. This is the very best site that I have found!!

I bought all my wedding jewelry and bridesmaid jewelry on Etsy.com

I love that I can customize what I want by working directly with the seller/creator of items.

I purchased my small pearl earrings, necklace and three matching small pearl necklaces for my bridesmaids from a seller called "Jeweledblossoms". They arrived in beautiful little purple gift boxes tied with a bow with little glittery white flowers on the box - it was perfect because I didn't even have to gift wrap them! Shipping was very fast, the seller was very friendly and helpful - and I got it all for about $150.00

I also purchased my wedding veil on Etsy.com - for $20 - I got an ivory veil - customized for me - with small crystals sprinkled along the back of the veil - it also came with the attached hair comb. A price that can't be beat considering at bridal shops they tend to run anywhere from $100-500 depending how elaborate you want them.

My favorite Esty.com wedding purchase was my small, freshwater pearl custom bracelet from sTuckintheCoop. It has variously sized (but all similar) freshwater pearls and two silver charms - one is stamped with mine and my husband's initials and the other is a small heart stamped with the date of our wedding - 5.30.2009. It is absolutely adorable and I love it - I wear it EVERY day.

Etsy is and has been a favorite of mine for a few months now - I will continue to use it to buy jewelry and other assorted goodies but HIGHLY recommend it to brides as you can find nearly anything you want on Etsy and can work with the seller to have it customized just for you if you so choose.
