Cool blog...

http://www.rocknrollbride.com/

I came across this blog today, lots of cool non traditional ideas!

A little about the site:
Rock ‘n Roll Bride promotes individuality and general awesomeness in a cookie cutter, pastel pink, poufy dressed wedding world. Don’t let the wedding industry define your day – let *you* define your day.

Rock ‘n Roll Bride began as an unknown, personal wedding blog – a place for me to gather my wedding planning thoughts and ideas for myself. After our wedding in April 2008, I realised I rather liked this blogging malarkey and so decided continue gathering and posting stuff I loved and hoped others would also enjoy.

Rock n Roll Bride is all about the charm and unique nature of ordinary people’s, extraordinary weddings.

On the road!

I am on the road again! I will be in San Fransisco till Thursday and I will be in the San Diego area next Tuesday to Thursday. If your bride in one of these areas and want to meet up, please e-mail or call me! I look forward to seeing you soon...

Help needed...

Help is needed for a local IE "nestie" and formar "knottie" who tragically passed away in childbirth last week. Please see below for how you can help...

My amazing nesties have done it again.

1.) A P.O. Box was ser up today to accept formula checks (any brand, even checks that are expired!) and diaper coupons (or even gift cards to places like Target!) -- basically anything that can fit in an envelope. Anything not used will be donated to The Liz Logelin Foundation. The address is:The Jewelyn Okamoto Memorial FundP.O. Box 235971Encinitas, CA 92023-59712.)

2.) A memorial fund was set up at Arrowhead Credit Union today, and checks can be made out to The Jewelyn Okamoto Memorial Fund. They can be mailed to:The Jewelyn Okamoto Memorial FundP.O. Box 235971Encinitas, CA 92023-59713.) An address for those who want to send packages (larger than an envelope) has been established. This address can accept shipments from UPS, Fed Ex, etc., unlike the P.O. Box:Brandi Futrellc/o The Jewelyn Okamoto Memorial Fund14928 S. Maple AvenueGardena, CA 902484.) And for those who would like to contribute via PayPal, that email address is 4jewelyn@gmail.com.5.)

3.) And the yardsale just continues to grow.Sat Oct 3rd 7am-till whenever people stop coming4Jewels Yardsale31135 Larchwood St, Menifee, CA 92584 The support we have received for Jewelyn's family has been incredible. I am positive that Philip will be absolutely overwhelmed and appreciative. Here is what he posted on our local message board after hearing about the outpouring of support:Jewelyn was so loved. I've been receiving messages to look at this board. I have never posted here before but I know Jewelyn was on it religiously. She considered everyone here a part of her family that have gone through so much together. Gabrielle will be in nicu till the end of the week but she looks beautiful. Just like her mommy. I wanted to thank all of you for your prayers and support. The family fund is something I would never have expected anyone to do for us. Before she slipped away I told her how loved she was. I don't think she realized just how much.Thank you all.Jewelyn's husband Philip

Thanks again to my IE friends for helping to get all of these efforts off the ground, and thanks to everyone reading for your support.
