jackfm1.jpgI recently did an interview with Kimi Kline on Seattle’s JACKfm 96.5, and we talked about wedding porn, the relativity of what “offbeat” means, bachelor party spelunking, and forgetting your vows. The conversation is now available as a podcast, so take a listen.

A few months ago I won a charity auction to have my book reviewed by the Seattle’s snarkiest alt-weekly, The Stranger. The review published today, and it’s a win/win … the article is wonderful and I got to donate to Northwest Harvest! Plus, it was fun. Furthermore, one of my favorite Stranger writers, Cienna Madrid, wrote the piece. Is that four wins? Whatever. Here’s a quote:

Offbeat Bride is the perfect book for engaged couples who are grappling with how to buck tradition, bypass the formidable Wedding Industry, and design their own weddings. For such couples, Offbeat Bride is more than a go-to guide; it is a godsend. (Or goddess-send. Or mystical-universal-life-force-connected-to-the-great-mother-earth-send.)

Stallings is a relentless researcher and clever type A who has explored every avenue ending in wedding bells, interviewed every other offbeat bride she could shake a charming stick at, and has the good heart to pass on her smarts so that other brides aching to break from tradition may profit from her knowledge. Stallings doesn’t just pave new bridal paths, she gives couples the tools to forge their own.

Read the whole review.

Hey there. I'm Ariel Meadow Stallings, a native Seattleite who's written my way up and down the Left Coast. Electrolicious is where I post daily randomata, but I also write for a living. My first book, Offbeat Bride, was published last year.
