Finding the right summer wedding themes!

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

Planning an outside wedding wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be. It wasn’t as expensive as an indoor wedding would have been. Since we had the beauty of nature all around us, it wasn’t too expensive to decorate. The first thing on my agenda was to find that perfect place to hold our summer wedding and reception party. I thought about a super beach wedding and reception, or maybe have it in a gorgeous garden, but I decided to have our ceremony and reception in the park. I found there were several great locations that would work out perfectly for an outdoor wedding.

I decided to go online and get some expert advice on how to plan the perfect outdoor wedding. When you plan to be married in the great outdoors, it seems you have to have a backup plan just in case the weather turns from sunny to pouring buckets. A tent was suggested just in case the weather turns out badly.

In our original wedding preparations, we had a lovely canopy set up for the reception and a lovely trellis for our ceremony. I only had to get decorations for my bridal table and the reception tables for our friends and family. With the park as our main theme, I basically had to make sure I had our table settings and maybe throw in a few extra bouquets of flowers. By using artificial flowers I thought we may be able to avoid any univited guests, like bees. The only way you could tell that the flowers were artificial, was by touch, they were beautiful. Planning this wedding wasn’t all that hard, but there was a little more than I expected. You want to make sure you have plenty of citronella candles scattered about, and that the rest rooms are within walking distance, and make sure your frosting on your cake doesn’t melt in the heat.

There was a variety of accessories available for the outdoor reception. As centerpieces for our reception tables I used citronella votive candles and place them in glass globes with flowers around them, and used park bench place card holders for each guest. For each of our guests there were beautiful chrome bottle openers in lovely designed favor boxes, as a summer wedding theme. One of the most decorative things on our wedding table was our gorgeous wedding cake with the beautiful cake topper I ordered.

I saw this cake topper when I was checking out all the wedding accessories they had to offer, and I knew this was the topper I wanted. They do customizing for the bride and groom. They put our faces on our cake topper, and all I had to do was send them a photo of me and my fiance. What a wonderful momento of our wedding day. Our friends and family were really loved the cake topper and gave us a lot of compliments on it. All the wonderful accessories I ordered for our reception and wedding ceremony came from the same place, including our champagne flutes and silver cake set. You wouldn’t believe all the nice accessories you can buy online.

Well, the wedding was beautiful and the reception was just as perfect. Thank goodness the weather stayed perfect throughout the entire ceremony and reception and we never had to put plan B into action. We had a wonderful DJ that I’m sure, kept the music going long after we left for our honeymoon. A lot of good things were said about our wedding ceremony and everyone said they had a fantastic time at the reception. I couldn’t have picked a better place than the park for our wedding ceremony and reception party. I’d love to do this again and have a wedding renewal in the park, maybe for an anniversary, someday.

Finding the right summer wedding themes!

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

Planning an outside wedding wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be. In fact, it didn’t cost as much as an indoor wedding would have cost us. Having the natural beauty of the outdoors saved us a lot of money on decorations. I checked out a lot of places to have our summer wedding and reception. I could have had our wedding ceremony on the beach, with a fun filled beach party reception, or an elegant garden party, but I chose a ceremony and reception in the park. I was surprised at all the parks available for weddings.

Since I never planned a wedding like this before, I needed all the help I could get. I found out you need to have a plan B, in case inclement weather unexpectly arises. It’s a good idea to have a tent ready to continue your ceremony if it becomes necessary.

In our original wedding preparations, we had a lovely canopy set up for the reception and a lovely trellis for our ceremony. The only real decorations I needed were those for my wedding table and the guests reception tables. With the beautiful background of the park as our main décor, all I really needed besides table settings were a few extra flowers here and there. By using artificial flowers I thought we may be able to avoid any univited guests, like bees. The only way you could tell that the flowers were artificial, was by touch, they were beautiful. Planning this wedding wasn’t all that hard, but there was a little more than I expected. Even though some summer wedding invitations are fantastic, the heat can totally destroy your gorgeous wedding cake.

There was a variety of accessories available for the outdoor reception. I had little park bench place card holders at each table setting, and little citronella votive candles in glass globes with a nice flower arrangement as our centerpieces. The chrome bottle openers we bought for our guests were packaged in beautiful favors boxes and given out as a summer favor. The most beautiful part of our wedding table was our cake with it’s gorgeous wedding cake topper.

I found it while browsing online for my other wedding accessories, and fell in love with it. They were especially customized for the bride and groom. After I sent them a head shot of my fiance and myself they made our bride and groom topper to look exactly like us. How could I ask for a better wedding keepsake than that? Our friends and family were really loved the cake topper and gave us a lot of compliments on it. Our crystal champagne flutes and silver cake serving set was just a few of the fantastic accessories I ordered for our ceremony and reception. It was amazing all the super accessories you can buy online.

Everything at the wedding and reception were fantastic. Plan B never had to be used, since the weather was so beautiful, and thankfully it remained that way through the whole evening. The DJ we hired was really exceptional and I’m sure that the music played on long after my new husband and I left for our honeymoon. There were many good comments about our beautiful wedding ceremony and fun filled reception party we had. The park turned out to be the perfect place to have our wedding and reception. I’d love to do this again and have a wedding renewal in the park, maybe for an anniversary, someday.

I like these new Ring Bearer Pillows

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

When it came to the flower girl baskets, ring bearer pillows and reception supplies, I took my mom’s advice and went shopping online. She said it beats running from store to store and all there is to do is check them out, order the ones I like and wait for delivery. I found everything from invitations to wedding favors, and some items at wholesale prices. Our invitations weren’t the only thing I saved money on, I also saved on other accessories too. I found a lot of my accessories for my bridesmaids, flower girl at a great price and there were unique ring bearer pillow wedding ideas to work with too. I was surprised there could be so many styles and designs for wedding ring pillows.

They had a fantastic selection of centerpieces and champagne flutes for the bride and groom and guests. There were elegant choices of candles and glassware to enhance my tables. They had a lot of suggestions for themed weddings and even destination weddings, with all kinds of wedding favor ideas. There everything, including favor boxes for beach, winter, garden and other themed weddings. There are beautiful accessories for beach, winter, garden and other themed ceremonies and receptions. If I were having a Vegas theme reception I could have gotten the cute little novelty favors they have for it, like keychains, photo books and more.

The crystal paperweights I bought made the perfect little thank you gifts for our guests. Athough the favors were an added touch of elegance all on their own, I packaged them in exquisite little favor boxes. Out of everything I bought, I loved my cake topper the most. Our cake topper was so beautiful it almost out shined our wedding cake. It really was an especially beautiful cake topper with a lovely butterfly and a satin bow.

Our wedding décor and wedding favors seemed to make quite an impression. Some of the guests came up and thanked me for their gifts and told me how beautiful they were. But you know what else was so great about this place, they have a lot more than cake toppers and a ring pillow. There are ideas and selections for all parties, including showers, birthday and girls night out parties. I didn’t know it at the time, but I found out that’s where my sister got all of her party supplies and party favors for my bridal shower she threw for me. She said mom had told her about it too.

My sister is going to have a baby in a few months and I’m throwing her a baby shower, guess where I’m getting all of my shower supplies? I’ve already been checking out some of the party favors, but I’m waiting until next week to order them. That’s when she finds out if she is having a girl or boy. Then I can order the favors in pink or blue, even though there are other neutral colors I could choose.

I should listen to my mom more often and maybe she has other ways to find bargains like these in a lot less time than I normally take. I also want to thank her for helping with the reception arrangements and filling out all those thank you cards. I couldn’t have done it without you, mom. This is one way of shopping that will come in handy for our anniversary someday. I saw some pretty nice ideas for anniversary parties, from decorations to anniversary party favors. There were some very excellent selections for mom and dad’s 30th anniversary. My sister and I should get together and discuss it. It won’t be long before they are celebrating their anniversary, we might as well get an early start on planning.

I found a pretty cool Ring Bearer Pillows

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

Online shopping for our reception accessories, flower baskets, and ring bearer pillows was my mom’s idea. She said it beats running from store to store and all there is to do is check them out, order the ones I like and wait for delivery. They even had the type of invitations I was looking for, and a lot of discounted items to choose from too. Besides the invitations, I got a lot of accessories for the ceremony, at a much lower cost than I expected. I saved money on all the tiaras I needed for myself, bridesmaids and my flower girl, plus a lot of other accessories, like flower girl basket, rose petals and I also found terrific ring bearer pillow wedding suggestions. I was surprised there could be so many styles and designs for wedding ring pillows.

There was everything I needed for my reception supplies.Along with the glassware I added beautiful candles to make each table setting as elegant as possible. There was such an assortment of themed wedding and destination wedding ideas, and a great selection of wedding favors too. There everything, including favor boxes for beach, winter, garden and other themed weddings. There are beautiful accessories for beach, winter, garden and other themed ceremonies and receptions. I really liked the novelty favors they have for a Las Vegas themed party, like the little photo albums and keychains.

As wedding favors I chose crystal paperweights for all of our guests. They were really lovely, so lovely I hated to package them, but the favor boxes were very decorative and added that extra special something to our tables. Out of everything I bought, I loved my cake topper the most. The cake topper was the most exquisite part of our wedding cake. The butterfly with the beautiful satin bow really made an exquisite wedding cake topper.

Everyone seemed impressed with the décor and their wedding favors. I got so many thank you’s from our guests for their gifts. But, there’s more to this place than just a ring bearer pillow and cake toppers. There were all kinds of supplies and great ideas for birthdays, wedding showers, baby showers, and girls night out parties too. Ijust found out that this is where my sister got everything she needed for my wedding shower. Our mom gave her the idea of going online to find everything she needed for my bridal shower she was throwing for me, just like she did for me with my wedding supplies.

I’m planning on giving my sister a baby shower next month and I know exactly where I’m getting the party supplies and cake topper. I already know what supplies and favors I want to order, but I have to do that until some time next week. That’s when she finds out if she is having a girl or boy. Even though there are a lot of neutral colors I could use, I’d rather try to have the décor and supplies in a boy or girl theme.

I want to thank my mom for pointing me towards this easy way to shop, it saved me a lot of time and money. My mom also helped me so much with arranging my reception and helping me get the thank you cards all done. I couldn’t have done it without you, mom. Maybe I can use this online shopping thing for our future anniversary parties. I saw some pretty nice ideas for anniversary parties, from decorations to anniversary party favors.

Affordable but Wonderful Birthday Party Invitations

Monday, November 16th, 2009

The first thing I did when I decided to give my girlfriend a bridal shower was to put together a list of everything I was going to need for thte shower. The first priority was finding a graduation party invitation. Now I’m one of those women that really doesn’t like shopping where I have to fight the crowds, or wait in line for price checks, so I decided to go online and see what I could come up with for the bridal shower. Boy, did I luck out in that department. The prices and selection were both better than I expected. The price I paid on some things were almost criminal. The bridal shower invitations were really nice with silver writing on the front and pearl embossed borders. The site also had standard party invitations, engagement party invitations, and many other types of invitations.
There were some great little accessories for my shower too, like place card holders for all the little tables I had set up. One of the things I found was a little bridal guest book for everyone to sign and for the bride, to be, to keep a record of every gift she received. One style of place card holders caught my fancy. The place cards themselves had pink lilies on them, and then everyone got a handbag made of plastic and filled with candy in different-colored wrappers. Next to the other decorations and presents, they were a real eye-catcher. There’s no type of party that doesn’t have a gift box designed for it. I chose little floral patterned boxes which I stacked on a cake plate in layers and sat on the gift table. Every person at the bridal shower took a gift from the platter, and it looked classy that way. I picked out a few kinckknacks as awards for winning the bridal shower activities we were going to play, and the thank you presents were sets that had everything you’d need to give a manicure. I got little decorative soaps, purse mirrors, novelty key rings and many other little trinkets that made great prizes.
I went online and got some great game ideas for the party too. If you want to see something humorous, try playing ‘Take It Off,” a game where you have to but a bag on your head and then, when the person running the game tells you to take off one piece of clothing, you have to take one off – and it’s astonishing how many women don’t have it come to mind that they ought to take off the bag. This is really a hysterical game to play. There are other mirthful games that we did, like bridal bingo. I’m so glad I thought to browse the internet, else wise I wouldn’t have gotten such great deals and accessories. I made out alright purchasing my favors and invitations from them. Not only did I get high quality accessories, but they didn’t cost me half of what I had expected to pay for it all, and there were so many options to choose from. Since the website also sold wedding invitations and favors, I let my friend who was about to get married know about it, since I was sure she could use a wide selection to pick from. She’ll have a lot of options when she uses this site, and it will save her a pretty penny, which all newlyweds need. The bridal shower wouldn’t have been as good without it. We all had a super time and all my favors and other accessories really impressed my guests. The last thing to do is to send them all thank yous for being a guest at the shower. Which, by the way, I also ordered online. Next, I’m helping with my friends sons’ birthday party with the help of my favorite online store.

I found some great deals on new party favors!

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

Its been many years since my wedding and I can’t believe how much everything has changed for the better, including the decorations. It’s amazing what is out there and the variety you can choose from. Beach party weddings can be one of the most fantastic ceremonies with seashells and starfish to help decorate with. There were also some pretty clever ideas for garden and other summer and spring weddings and receptions. You could get beautiful new wedding accessories for all 4 seasons. There are winter season decorations and all their accessories with the glitter and gold that will definitely be a beautiful addition to your themed decor. I actually heard that some brides and grooms have an outside winter wedding. That sounds beautiful, but it seems just a little too modern, and too cold for my taste. I think I would be just fine with an indoor winter wedding and reception. Maybe a ski resort would be a good place for a winter wedding, with all the fireplaces and cozy winter atmosphere.

An autumn wedding is so gorgeous and one of my favorite seasons, and has lot to offer in wedding accessories and reception supplies. An autumn wedding would be so beautiful because of the beautiful scenery with the colors changing and awesome fall scents in the air. My wedding day was so long ago that the choices we had were being married in the church or running away and getting married. Now there are so many different types of weddings you can really have your ceremony exactly the way you want to. I’ve heard of weddings where the location is out of state or even the country and all the friends and famliy fly to that location to have the wedding ceremony. Everybody probably feels like they’re eploping too. There are also a great new favor selection, from everything from traditional to destination weddings that you can buy for your reception.

My daughter is getting married in two months and I’m helping her to plan the whole thing and she has decided to have a country western ceremony and reception. I would of never guessed that a country western wedding would be so great until I helped my daughter plan hers. She found cake toppers that have a western theme to them, plus everything she needed for her bridal table, including western champagne flutes. They looked stylished and fashionable. She hired a country band and placed grills and hay around for the party setting. For the reception, she is going to put lights and lanterns all over. Also she purchased centerpieces and name card holders that are western style. To my surprise they planned to rent a western ranch for the wedding. She purchased many wedding and reception embellishments on the internet and they went with the country western style. She bought bride and groom cowboy hats there for her and her fiance and the cutest little new favors for each of their guests.

It’s looks like when this is finished being planned, that it will be a big family barbecue with dear friends. Which when I think of it, sounds like a pretty good time for all. I was surprised to hear that they are going to have a barn dance in a good ole country western style. Now that I knew what to expect I decided to get all the western gear, like blue jeans, cowboy boots, and cowboy hats so I can participate in all the fun. Everybody will always remember this wedding. With our anniversary coming up soon, I may take my daughters idea and have a country western renewal ceremony and reception.

The best new weddings I’ve seen in a while!

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

Things sure have changed since my wedding day, especially the fantastic accessories and reception supplies available. It’s amazing what is out there and the variety you can choose from. There were plenty of suggestions for beach weddings that I thought were very nice with little seashells, starfish and other oceanside designs. Just researching you could find great ideas for a summer or spring wedding. I saw gorgeous new wedding collections for all seasons. The season that was amazing was the winter season because of all the Christmas colors and decorations you can add to your reception. Did you know that some couples actually have a winter wedding outside? That sounds beautiful, but it seems just a little too modern, and too cold for my taste. I think I’d rather have my winter wonderland wedding and reception, indoors, where it’s warm. To me you should plan a wedding in the winter at a resort that has all the amenities to help everybody stay warm.

Autumn is a beautiful time of the year and my favorite, and it would be a great time to have a wedding. With all the gorgeous colors and the pumpkins, gourds and just the fresh clean smell in the air, the fall season seems to me to be the best season for a wedding. When I was married many years ago the only options you had was a church wedding or a county building to get married. Today there are so many various weddings you can plan, that you can have the wedding you always wanted. There are even long distance weddings, where everybody takes a trip to where the wedding will take place. It’s like having a family elopement. There are also a great new wedding favor selection, from everything from traditional to destination weddings that you can buy for your reception.

In a few months my daughter will be married and I offered to help her plan her wedding and she decided to have a country western wedding. At first I thought that idea was just a little out there, but the more we got into the actual planning, the more I liked it. She ordered all the decorations in a western style decor. They had a style of there own. She’s set up a country band, barbecue grills and hay bales that will be part of the party decor. There will be lights and lanterns strung throughout the reception, giving it that western look. Also she purchased centerpieces and name card holders that are western style. It amazed me when I found out that they were having the wedding at a ranch because I never heard of renting one for a special occasion before. Many of the wedding decorations that she ordered online are a great match for her country western wedding. She also purchased cowboy hats for herself and her groom and the most adorable new weddings for her guests.

It’s looks like when this is finished being planned, that it will be a big family barbecue with dear friends. Which when I think of it, sounds like a pretty good time for all. They even planned to have some country western line dancing in the barn. Now that I knew what to expect I decided to get all the western gear, like blue jeans, cowboy boots, and cowboy hats so I can participate in all the fun. Everybody will always remember this wedding. Our daughter’s wedding was so much fun, that I’m considering have a country western renewal ceremony and reception for our anniversary.

Wonderful Wedding Candle Centerpieces

Friday, November 13th, 2009

There are so many options for wedding favors for friends and family attending your ceremony and reception. You can choose from a variety of picture frame place card holders, whimsical little novelty gifts for beach themes and others, and many more selections of gifts. For our thank you gifts to our guests, we decided on candle wedding favors, because they’re not only beautiful, but they are practical too. I bought hang tags that I found to be very special to go with the colorful favor boxes for everyones gift.
For each of our reception tables I ordered beautiful wedding candle centerpieces, just for display. They really looked nice with all the other decorations and the lovely centerpieces I got from the florist. When I was looking for favors, I found candles for other occasions too, like a lovely candle holder wedding for someone that’s throwing a bridal shower, and candle party favors for graduations, birthdays and more. But there’s a lot more that candles and wedding favors at the place I shop at for wedding accessories.
I bought a complete five piece wedding set which has a wedding guestbook and matching pen set, flower basket, ring pillow and a very nice wedding garter. We saved a little money by being able to get so many of our accessories in a set like that at such a low cost. They carry a lot of discount accessories and supplies, like wholesale candles wedding favors and many other products for ceremonies and receptions.
We ordered a customized wedding cake topper and expected to pay a lot more than we actually did for it. They made the wedding couple on our cake topper look exactly like us and it was the talk of the reception. All I had to do was send them a head shot picture of me and my fiance and they did the rest. The pink and red flowers on our lovely chocolate wedding cake with the three tiers was really a picture in itself. Next to our beautiful cake was the cake serving set I went crazy over, with it’s handles decorated in a gorgeous calla lily design.
We ordered special champagne flutes for our wedding table that saids ‘bride’ and ‘groom’ on them, and other crystal flutes for our guests, that they were also given to take home. We have no use for 200 champagne glasses, so why not let our friends and family have them as keepsakes? With our guestbook with all the signatures, our gorgeous picture album, our very unique wedding cake topper and so much more, we really didn’t need much else for keepsakes. One of the items in our five piece wedding set was the claret colored wedding guestbook with guest sign in pages, a place to list the gifts we received and a special spot for those little momentos. The guest book comes in handy for making out your thank you cards, and it’s nice to have a record of everyone that shared that day with you. It makes your guests appreciate the thank you notes with you remember what they gave you in way of wedding gifts.
Some of our friends and family complimented me on my choice of unique candle wedding favors as their thank you gifts, and told me how much they liked them. So, I guess I made the right choice. We were told, by our guests, as we departed for our honeymoon, that it was a fantastic wedding and reception and they all hoped for the best for us. This day in my life, I will always remember and cherish.

Great Wedding Collections!

Friday, November 13th, 2009

I must have looked at hundreds of wedding accessories and hundreds of different prices. There were so many wedding accessories at a variety of prices. With all there is to plan and so little time to do it in, I was going crazy. My sister came up with an idea to help me with the rough time I was having picking out our accessories.
She thought I should go online and check out what accessories and supplies they had to offer. It was the best advice she’s ever given me. I found quite a few of my accessories and supplies at prices I could afford.
I found wedding collections with so many beautiful wedding items. The collection set I picked out had so many great items, like my gorgeous bridal garter and handkerchief, ring pillow and flower basket, and a beautifully styled guest book and pen holder.
A collection for wedding accessories was something I didn’t know anything about, until now. There were unity candles included in some of the sets. A nice wedding collection set came in multiple themes. Absolutely beautiful sets for an Irish wedding, and a lovely beach themed set. But we’re having just a simple and traditional ceremony and reception. So, I chose a beautiful white satin set with satin edged bows.
The wedding accessories and reception items weren’t all that costly. I even found a lot of accessories I could get at a discount. If you have a low budget to follow for your wedding, this can be very helpful.
I saw some really super cake toppers online. I liked the funny cake toppers the best. When I showed him the cake topper I wanted, my fiance said he liked the idea of having a funny topper for our cake. It really showed the humorous side of marriage. I was able to get everything from our cake topper to our wedding favors online. They had everything I needed from toppers to favors, right there online. I was really surprised that I could get everything from wedding cake toppers to adorable wedding favor gifts, for our friends and family, on my computer.
I found plenty of bridal accessories for the ceremony. There were lovely flowers, candles and a very beautiful aisle runner. I even got my veil and tiara online. There was also beautiful white confetti that I bought for the guests to use when the ceremony is over.
Much of the décor and accessories for our reception was bought online. The crystal champagne flute and glassware sparkled on all the tables, and the flower arrangements made excellent centerpieces. The place card holders I ordered also served as picture frames for our guests to use at home. As wedding favors I chose special crystal figurines I thought everyone would like. Everything at our reception was absolutely as perfect as I wanted it to be.
Everyone complimented me on our beautiful reception décor and a couple of them expressed an interest in our guest book and pen holder despin. They were amazed that I got all these accessories in a collection for wedding, and paid at such a low price. There was a lady there that’s helping her daughter plan for her wedding and she plans on telling her to shop where I did.
Along with all the other fabulous wedding accessories I bought for our ceremony and reception, I also bought a gorgeous wedding album. This gorgeous white brocade album even had a place for scrapbooking and a special place to keep momentos.] I had lots of pictures to fill the pages and plenty of keepsakes too.
The albums they have online are so lovely, I bought a second one to use strictly for our honeymoon photos. We had such a great time on our honeymoon, and we took lots of pictures for my new album. My sister’s suggestion was a good one. She led me to the perfect wedding accessory and reception supply store, ever.
Your advice is greatly appreciated, sis.

Wonderful Candle Weddings

Friday, November 13th, 2009

There are tons of suggestions for great wedding favor gifts for the people invited to your wedding ceremony and party with you at your reception. There are picture frames that can also be used as place card holders, novelty favors for almost every season or theme, and many other super ideas. For our thank you gifts to our guests, we decided on candle wedding favors, because they’re not only beautiful, but they are practical too. I bought hang tags that I found to be very special to go with the colorful favor boxes for everyones gift.
For each of our reception tables I ordered beautiful candle weddings, just for display. The wedding decorations with the candles and fantastic centerpieces made a great combination for my reception tables. You should see the fantastic wedding unity candle for bridal showers, and all the choices there are for candle party favors for graduations, birthdays and other important events. There is all kinds of products where I shop, not just the beautiful candles, but I found everything for my wedding accessories and they also have supplies for other types of parties as well.
I ordered my wedding guestbook and pen, flower girl basket and ring bearer pillow all together in one very inexpensive set, and they also included a beautiful leg garter to go with it. Buying it in a set was less expensive than buying each piece individually. They carry a lot of discount accessories and supplies, like wholesale candles wedding favors and many other products for ceremonies and receptions.
Our wedding cake topper was really spectacular and it didn’t cost near as much as we expected a customized cake topper would cost. This lovely cake topper was a bride and groom figurine that were exact replicas of me and my fiance, and our guests were really astonished. All I had to do was send them a head shot picture of me and my fiance and they did the rest. The three tiered chocolate wedding cake we had made was just gorgeous and was decorated with all red and pink flowers surrounding it. The calla lily cake serving set was one that I just absolutely went nuts over and it just looked so delicate lying next to our beautiful cake.
We ordered special champagne flutes for our wedding table that saids ‘bride’ and ‘groom’ on them, and other crystal flutes for our guests, that they were also given to take home. There was no point in keeping them, what would I do with 200 champagne flutes? With our guestbook with all the signatures, our gorgeous picture album, our very unique wedding cake topper and so much more, we really didn’t need much else for keepsakes. One of the items in our five piece wedding set was the claret colored wedding guestbook with guest sign in pages, a place to list the gifts we received and a special spot for those little momentos. I think the guest book is important, not only to have everyones’ name that attended, but for later use when you are filling out thank you notes. You want to be able to mention the gift they gave you when writing out your thank you cards, it’s much more personal that way.
I guess most of our guests really like the unique candle wedding favors we chose for their thank you gifts, some of them expressed their appreciation. I guess I picked out the right gifts. Everyone also told me what a great time they were having at the reception, and as we were leaving they all gave us their best wishes for a happy life. This day in my life, I will always remember and cherish.
