*UPDATE*

The adorable knottie who posted this question was perusing our blog, recognized her own post and took the time to email us! She wanted to make sure we weren't offended by her post, which we definitely were not, and wanted to clarify that she was not suggesting that brides use our photos to send to Etsy designers. :)

We want to thank her for her email, and we look forward to working with her to design a headpiece for her wedding day!

Recently this was forwarded to our design team as a heads-up to us by one of our favorite Knotties, and former brides:

HauteBride.com vintage-looking headband
Date: 9/4/2008 at 4:32 PM
Did anyone perchance wear a headband from Haute Bride on their wedding day? They don't have detailed pics on their website, and I want to have a seller on etsy make me a replica of one of the headbands that looks really gorgeous and vintage-inspired, I want to make sure the person has a detailed pic so it looks almost exact.Also, does anyone know of a site that has cheaper head pieces (ie: not tiaras) more like vintage looking headbands, brooches, etc?

This is the EXACT reason that we do not post detailed pictures of our hard work and creative designs on our website. We are working hard to get our designs in salons in your area, so you can view our pieces in person. We take great pride in our work, and each piece is handmade in our San Francisco studio. If you feel like an existing piece in our collection is out of your budget, please do contact us. We can work within your budget to create something equally as unique for your special day.

Our Knotties have been very loyal to us over the past few years, and we will still continue to honor the Knot.com 10% discount on purchases of Haute Bride accessories through our San Francisco Salon.

Thanks again for your support!
