Wedding Wise Wednesday – June 15th

Every Wednesday I bring you the best wedding stories, events and deals that I find in Los Angeles and around the web. And we call it Wedding Wise Wednesday. Welcome.

Cool Wedding Thing of the Week – This Pillow & Blanket Fort Engagement Session shot by Alante Photography in Seattle. Completely grinnable. And look at all the colors! Thanks to Style Unveiled for the find.

Cool, too: Newlymaid! Are all those bridesmaid dresses in your closet giving Katherine Heigel a run for her money? Newlymaid will send you a pre-paid mailer for your old gowns, and receive a 30-50% discount on one of Newlymaid’s little black dresses, like this one here.

Better Off Wed is offering 10% off anything in her wedding decor etsy shop, when you use the code I HEARTTHEBROKEASSBRIDE. Which I found in the Broke Ass Bride newsletter, of course. Keeping it in the family, y’all.
