Unique Escort Cards

Bride and Grooms are finding more and more ways to create unique and interesting escort cards, often using them to double up as the guests favours. The most important aspect is that the escort cards are practical and fit in with the theme and style of the wedding. Go here to read more on where and how to seat your guests.

Popping the Question.. to your Bridesmaids!

Your bridesmaids are the girls who will stand by your side throughout all the crazy and often overwhelming planning of your wedding. On the day of the wedding a bride often expects her bridesmaids to continuously fix her dress, hold her bouquet, wipe her tears, calm her nerves, fix her makeup and even help her go to the bathroom (just to name a few duties…). With this in mind why not do something special for your bridesmaids when asking them to take on these duties? Lately brides are coming up with so many creative ways of asking her favourite girls to participate in their wedding that the options are endless from sentimental to humorous. However you do decide to ask them, I am sure they will be over the moon to be considered.

Newspaper Decor

Newspaper decor looks so timeless and classy when done the correct way. You can use it in small areas of your wedding decor or you could make an entire theme from it. Luckily newspaper is inexpensive- sometimes even free- and if you are going to DIY then it is a fun project for either the bride and groom or even the bride and her bridesmaids.

 

 

 

Lawn Games

It is such a relief to see more brides and grooms starting to pay attention to the pre drinks hour- the time between the ceremony and reception. In the past many have just gone off to do their couple and family photo shoot and have left their guests to keep themselves entertained. Lately though drinks and special canapes are often set up or the latest craze are these lawn games. Easy to set up and affordable- they provide lots of laughs and entertainment for your guests.

Bow Tie Napkins

We all know at a wedding, or any function for that matter, there has to be a napkin at each place setting. The question is how do you integrate that into your theme and where do you place it? For quirky, charming and fun brides and grooms these bow tie napkins could be just the answer.

Lemonade Stands

It is no secret that I love different and fun stands at weddings and the latest to catch my attention is the lemonade stand. They are so easy to set up yourself and are cost effective. It is perfect to serve during the canape hour on a hot summer day. You will not need to organise waiters as it can be set up as a self-service stand or it would be a great way to get the kids from the wedding involved. They are eye catching and make for great photographs- perfect for shabby chic, rustic, picnic, yellow or even vintage themed weddings.
