Wedding Wise Weekly – December 31st

Every Week I bring you the best wedding stories, events and deals from Los Angeles and around the web. And we call it Wedding Wise Weekly. Welcome!

I celebrated Christmas with my husband’s family this year – check out my pictures on Instagram, search for #Coopersmithmas. His brother  Zach just got engaged, and Zach’s fiancee Andrea is a huge Beyonce fan. So, one of her friends sent her a variation of this awesomeness, from Etsy:

Right? You know you want it, and you can get it in  20 + different styles (off the shoulder, tank top, sweatshirt, shiny sweatshirt, any and all colors, you name it). GO.

Cool, too:

My most read article on The Broke-Ass Bride this year? The High Cost of Wedding Fear. Finding that out made me sooo happy. All I want, whether you work with me or not, whatever you decide to do for your wedding,  is for you to enjoy planning that day, and enjoy it when it finally comes. There’s a lot of love and joy on your wedding day. Look for it.

The Events:

So, I was talking to a Wedding World friend of mine on Monday, and she asked me, “When is the next Brides Against Breast Cancer sale?” And I said, “I don’t know, but it should be soon.” And, guess what? It’s this Saturday and Sunday, at the Brookside Country Club in Pasadena. Thousands of donated wedding dresses, from $75 – 1800. Sales benefit education, nutrition, support and therapy programs and services for cancer patients and their families. It is one of my favorite things, ever.  Just trying to figure out if I can volunteer or sponsor this quick…
