Welcome to the Wed By Hand Blog!

Hello there! Welcome to Wed By Hand's brand new blog! I'm Krista, co-founder and co-producer of Wed By Hand, Ottawa's Indie Wedding Show. If Wed By Hand is new to your vocabulary, let me tell you a bit about the show: We are a DIY, handmade and eco-friendly themed wedding show. We are one of only 5 indie wedding shows in North America, and 2012 will mark the third edition of our show. Over the past three years, we have grown leaps and bounds. We started in 2010 with just 16 vendors, paired with another wedding show. In 2011, we struck out on our own and expanded the show, moving it to bigger and better digs. Our show now includes over 35 vendors, DIY workshops, tastings and more!

As we've grown over the past three years, we've not only expanded our show, but we've also expanded our team. This year we've welcomed 6 new members to the Wed By Hand crew who will be helping us grow and expand to show to include some new and exciting things this year. We can't wait to introduce you to the team, and to also share the new surprises we have in store with you. In the meantime, though, I'd like to let you know what this blog is all about!

We wanted a place to share what it takes to put on a show like this, and to showcase all the awesome vendors and wedding/craft professionals that we get to work with. We also wanted a place to share wedding and DIY inspiration. So consider this your one-stop-shop for not only getting the scoop on what's going to happen at Wed By Hand, but also to get some awesome ideas for how you can truly personalize your wedding.

Each week we'll feature a different theme which will match all of the most important facets of your wedding--from photography to accessories to food & more! We kick off this week with photography, one of the most important investments you'll make when it comes to your wedding day. Each day will feature a different column, giving you tons of ideas and inspiration each weekday!

We're so excited to share all of our wonderful ideas with you, and can't wait for Wed By Hand on February 11, 2012! Stay tuned! So much exciting stuff in store!
