I was on one of my new favorite wedding blogs, Emmaline Bride, which specializes in equipping the bride who loves unique and elegant handmade items, and they profiled this great Etsy shop, Dawn Correspondence.  You’ve gotta see their stylish, modern take on invitations– so much more interesting than the everyday stuff you see from all the usual suspects.

Take a look at some of these refreshing invitations:

I’ve discovered over time that a lot of my brides own multiple dogs. Some of them even want a favorite pooch to be part of the wedding. This morning, I saw on a dog owner newsletter the perfect item for those of you who fall into this category…

I give you the Pet Petal Pushcart. It hooks up to your favorite canine and it’s like a little wagon, which you fill with flower petals. As your flower pooch walks down the aisle, (or for those of you with Jack Russells like me, gallops down the aisle), the cart dispenses the petals.

They have a video, but embedding was disabled, so here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzQIkQBy44k

I can’t wait to see how long I go before I see one of these through my viewfinder!
