Brides Gone Wild

We’re noticing a trend of sorts. The traditional bride has been overshadowed by the nontraditional one—the one that might wear red instead of white, walk down the aisle in the park, or employ fire spinners as entertainment. Wait? Fire spinners? Yes, you, too, can have anything from an organic caterer to tattoo artists to fire spinners, all compliments of the Unbridaled Wedding Expo, taking place Saturday, February 16th in Philadelphia.

A little too extreme? If you’re simply looking for a discussion area to find out more about nontraditional weddings, check out indiebride.com. The site has myriad topics and serves as a great sounding board for anyone thinking outside the bridal box.

P.S. Once the knot is tied, you might be into an off-the-beaten-path honeymoon. Check out YourTango’s Hottest Honeymoons for 2009.
