Amazing wedding bells

Tuesday, April 28th, 2009

You could hear the wedding bells ring as we headed for our limo, with our guests yelling their good wishes and tossing rose petals our way. That’s the way our ceremony went. There was such a wonderful collection of accessories to help plan our wedding and make our ceremony so perfect. With all the exceptional accessories and supplies at my disposal there was no way this wedding and reception wouldn’t be a success.

From the wedding invitations to the wedding favors for our guests, they had everything. The silver print was a lovely touch to our invitations. I found a lovely ring pillow and flower basket set that I also ordered from them. It was a beautiful satin garnet color and included a wedding guest book, pen set and wedding garter. Five items bought as a group, that cost a lot less than you would think.

They also had an aisle runner I really liked, so I ordered that to my list of wedding supplies. We wanted to have a wedding bell and we loved it! As soon as the wedding ceremony ended and we were leaving the church all the guests rang their little bells in celebration of our union. I really liked the idea of the bell ringing.

I bought accessories online for our reception as well as our ceremony. There was a marvelous selection of reception accessories to pick from. I wanted to make our reception tables sparkle, so I ordered as much crystal as I could get away with, starting with crystal champagne flutes. I chose the bride and groom toasting set for us and champagne flutes with elegant twisted stems for our friends and family. As an extra wedding favor for our friends and family I decided to choose bell weddings.

I could have bought every gorgeous item they had on their list, but I think I would have been overdoing it just a little. Glass coasters was our choice of wedding favor gifts for our guests. They had a lovely calla lilie design on them that was absolutely beautiful. I put the wedding favors in little silver party favor boxes that came with thank you cards for each of them. The wedding favors in their little silver boxes made our tables even more elegant. On each reception table was a centerpiece I made up of lovely flowers and some very elegant candles.

The wedding cake we had set up at the end of the reception hall was really spectacular. Three tiers of luscious chocolate and cherries with a gorgeous wedding cake topper as the crowning glory. I really fell in love with the cake topper I bought, with it’s attractive little ribbon made into a bow at the bottom of the heart with calla lilies added. The reception was fantastic, as was the wedding ceremony. With all the tons of wedding pictures we had, I finally had to order another wedding album to store them all in. There were so many shots of us with our wedding cake and the traditional cutting and sharing of the very first piece. I have pictures of our friends and family, the ring boy and flower girl on the dance floor together and our first dance as husband and wife.

Our friends and family told me they had a fantastic time at our reception and that they think I did a spectacular job in planning the wedding décor. I plan on having another wedding ceremony and reception for our anniversary one year and I was so glad to hear that my wonderful husband thinks that’s a fantastic idea.
