It’s crossed my mind that I may be an unofficial spokeswoman for Boulder’s Rags Consignments. Last Sunday I was at a tasting with clients. Before I knew it, the bride and I were chatting with another woman at the table and I was raving about Rags. It really is great. If you haven’t been, check it out.

One of the things I most love about the store is their ever-changing selection seems to always be full of fun, stylish pieces.

You can understand my excitement then when I found Recycled Bride the other day. It’s a site where couples list all kinds of used goods from their weddings. There are dresses, veils, shoes and, the best of the bunch in my opinion, decor and table items. I found listings for lanterns, chargers, Ball jars, and even some faux birch vases.

Purchasing gently used wedding decorations is a great way to make your big day a bit more green too. Your wallet and Mother Earth will thank you!

It might take a bit of patience and a bit of scouring to find your hidden treasure, but it’s certainly worth a look. Happy shopping!
