When I heard about this awesome and unique wedding venue near Las Vegas, I had to share it with all of you!

The Hangar includes airplanes of all kinds as static displays. They have a fully stocked and staffed bar, a DJ, a fabulous photographer , videographer, minister, and all the fun stuff anyone would want for their wedding. Everything is catered, from an appetizer buffet to a full seated dinner. They have access to incredible bakeries and flower shops, as well as wedding coordinating companies.

They can do weddings in a Caravan above the Grand Canyon or above the strip and have receptions for up to 120 people. They will be also have wedding ceremonies inside the hangar.

Want something totally different? They can even do a wedding right before or right after the couple goes up in an air combat mission and dogfight against each other!!!

Most events take place on Sundays and Mondays, but don’t hesitate to contact them if you need a different day.

The great news? The venue is a steal starting at $2500! View more info on their website and be sure to tell them that Chic Ink sent you over.

I had so much fun finding Etsy artisans to feature on the blog this week. I will definitely be doing this again. The final shop is the EnchantedCupboard.

Beccijo handpaints these super cute wood figures that are perfect for your wedding cake.

This is her signature style cake topper that is fully customizable to your likeness.

Here’s the “plus one” style. Love it!

Of course, she includes everyone in her designs.

Hop on over to the Enchanted Cupboard to place a custom order for your own wedding cake toppers. You won’t be disappointed!

Be sure to browse the Chic Ink Etsy shop, too. I’ve added new wedding favors this week.

I don’t know if you saw the post awhile back about the guy in Seattle that posted a listing on Craigslist to find an extra groomsman. The reason he was looking for another one was because his fiancee had made him an extra pair of d-20 cufflinks. Since my husband works for the largest gaming company (Wizards of the Coast) I knew I had to see what  those cufflinks looked like.

*On a side note, if you don’t know what I’m talking about, just grab the nearest nerdy guy and ask him if he can explain what a 20-sided die is for and if it is used in a little game called Dungeons and Dragons.

I began my search for funky cufflinks on Etsy, of course, and found the neatest shop – nostalgiclinks. Jennifer creates these fun and unique cuff links for every man in your life.

Here’s just a sampling of what she has in her shop – perfect for those groomsmen!

I love these ones made out of Lego pieces.

How about these compass ones?

For the watch collecting man – like my husband. I think I’ll get these for him for Valentine’s Day.

Can you think of a better way to ask your best man to be in your wedding? How about presenting him a pair of these cufflinks?

You should hop over to Jennifer’s shop – NostalgicLinks - and check out all the styles she has. She’ll even do custom work!

While you’re there, be sure to browse the Chic Ink Etsy shop. I’ll be adding more favors over the next few days.

Oh man, when I started looking for Etsy shops to feature this week, I didn’t realize how much fun I would have! I am so excited to share this shop – ourhobbytoyourhome - located in the great Pacific Northwest.

These custom wood signs have been featured on Etsy, The Knot, and more.

These “thank you” signs are perfect for sending out your thank you cards.

I just love these offbeat signs, too.

In case you need to give directions to your fabulous event, check out these fun signs.

Be sure to visit their Etsy shop for all the details about ordering your own custom signs. While you’re on Etsy, check out the Chic Ink Etsy store, too.

Oh man, I love this Etsy shop by GarterLady.

Choosing a garter for your wedding can be so much fun, especially if you have this many options.

There are listings that include a second garter to toss at the reception. Brilliant!

She specializes in garters that are heirloom and couture. Just check out this one.

If I had known about GarterLady when I got married I would’ve chosen this one. Can you tell why? hee hee

Check out GarterLady on Etsy.

And, remember, Chic Ink has an Etsy shop for all your wedding favor and invitation needs.

As you know, Chic Ink specializes in handmade wedding invitations, so I just love supporting other artists who create with their hands, as well. On the blog this week, I’ll be featuring fabulous artisans from Etsy.

Here’s the first one: norakaren. She creates one of a kind, handpainted shoes that are incredible.

These shoes are so fabulous, I can’t stand it!

She even paints clutches that match your shoes.

 I think I want a pair for myself!

Check out her Etsy shop here for info about how to order your own pair of shoes. You can also become a Fan on her facebook page.

Stay tuned to see another great Etsy find tomorrow. And, if you want to order handmade wedding favors or invitations from Chic Ink, you can order from our Etsy shop here.
