My fiance and I set the date for our wedding in January, because I had my heart set on a winter wonderland ceremony and reception. There are so many beautiful accessories and reception supplies to make the perfect wintery wedding dream come true. Presents, invitations, reception supplies – you name it, there are all sorts of things out there for any type of wedding decor. Our wedding ceremony color scheme was in silver and wintery blue. We also had fake snow and lovely candles at the altar, including our winter themed unity candle. The ceremony had a lovely, pristine look to it.
At the reception we had white tablecloths with red table runners on each and every reception table there. We put shimmering silver vases in the center of each table and filled them with lovely white orchids, and they matched the winter theme to a tee. Our reception place card holders were ornaments that looked like little snowballs. Not only are they beautiful card holders but they are awesome little ornaments as well. Everyone one received toasting flutes and champagne bottles favors from us as a token of our appreciation. If you’re looking for a wonderful way to say thank you, wedding toasting flutes do the trick. Our reception hall called to mind a scene of freshly-fallen snow in the middle of winter. We had a wedding cake with three layers; underneath it was a cake stand in the form of a sled, and above it was a cake topper made out of porcelain in the form of a snowflake. I picked out the cake serving set on the net, and it had wintery designs on it, too. The handles had little snowflakes done in white and wintry blue colors. It was an exact match for the sign-in book and pen set I had bought.
The artwork on the the cake serving utensils and the guestbook was identical to that on the personalized toasting flute, and they all looked brilliant. The coloring scheme was cool blue and white with a few small snowflakes to match everything else on our table. Our reception guests loved the place card holders and other gifts that they received, and the look of the tables was to die for. The little flower girl seemed happy with her necklace we got her for a thank you gift, plus she got to keep the little tiara she wore in the wedding ceremony. The ring boy thought the ring bearer tee shirt and stainless steel yoyo was pretty cool. I got my maid of honor a bracelet made of crystal, and all of my bridesmaids received tank tops with their names written on them in small crystals. My fiance took care of shopping for the guys. The guys that stood up in our wedding all got digital clocks, with the best man got his own mug and pen set. I could tell that all of our friends and family were having a fantastic time at the reception and they all seemed to like the little favors and gifts we bought for them.
Everything at our wedding and reception was fantastic and I owe it all to the wonderful selection of accessories and supplies I found online. We also saved a little money by shopping online, with all the discounts and wholesale items they had to choose from. I found supplies for both the wedding and the honeymoon online. Like the bride and groom hats and tee shirts and the cute little door hanger pillow that says do not disturb. The ‘Do Not Disturb’ pillow ended being a very practical choice.

Wedding Toasting Flutes to Match Any Theme!
Monday, November 30th, 2009Amazing Ring Bearer Pillows!
Monday, November 30th, 2009My mom suggested I shop online for my wedding accessories, like flower girl baskets, ring bearer pillows and reception supplies. 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. Our invitations weren’t the only thing I saved money on, I also saved on other accessories too. I saved on items like wedding tiaras for my bridesmaids, flower girl, and also bought my bridal tiara, flower girl basket, flower petals and checked out some great ring bearer pillow wedding suggestions. I was surprised there could be so many styles and designs for wedding ring pillows.
I couldn’t believe the lovely centerpieces and champagne flutes there were for the guests, with special bride and groom flutes too. So many choices of glassware and candles to add to the elegance of each table. They had a lot of suggestions for themed weddings and even destination weddings, with all kinds of wedding favor ideas. Some for a beach wedding, winter wedding, garden wedding and more, with beautiful and decorative favor boxes to choose from too. There were great little novelty favors too, like Vegas wedding gifts for friends and family, keychains, photo frames and more with a Las Vegas theme to them.
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 beautiful satin bow and butterfly just made our cake even more beautiful.
Everyone seemed impressed with the décor and their wedding favors. Some of the guests came up and thanked me for their gifts and told me how beautiful they were. What I really liked about this place I shopped was the fact they have more than just 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. It was all courtesy of mom’s suggestion.
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’ve already been checking out some of the party favors, but I’m waiting until next week to order them. By that time I’ll know if she is having a boy or a girl. I could go ahead and order everything in a non-gender color, but I’d really prefer to have a pink décor or a blue décor, with maybe an it’s a girl or it’s a boy banner.
My mother’s suggestion on shopping by computer really helped out a lot in terms 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. You’re really a life saver mom. I promise I’ll keep this place in mind when it’s time for our anniversary parties. I saw some pretty nice ideas for anniversary parties, from decorations to anniversary party favors. I found suggestions that would be perfect for our mom and dayd’s 30th wedding anniversary party. My sister and I should get together and discuss it. Their 30th isn’t that far away, no use waiting until the last minute.
Amazing Ring Bearer Pillows!
Monday, November 30th, 2009When it came to the flower girl baskets, ring bearer pillows and reception supplies, I took my mom’s advice and went shopping online. I just placed my order and they delivered them, and it sure was better than running from store to store. She was right, I even found the perfect wedding invitations to send out, and some other accessories, all at reasonable prices. Besides the invitations, I got a lot of accessories for the ceremony, at a much lower cost than I expected. I saved on items like wedding tiaras for my bridesmaids, flower girl, and also bought my bridal tiara, flower girl basket, flower petals and checked out some great ring bearer pillow wedding suggestions. I was amazed at all the different styles of wedding ring pillows.
They had a fantastic selection of centerpieces and champagne flutes for the bride and groom and guests. Along with the glassware I added beautiful candles to make each table setting as elegant as possible. If you need favors for themed weddings or destination weddings, they have that 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. There were great little novelty favors too, like Vegas wedding gifts for friends and family, keychains, photo frames and more with a Las Vegas theme to them.
As wedding favors I chose crystal paperweights for all of our guests. Athough the favors were an added touch of elegance all on their own, I packaged them in exquisite little favor boxes. My favorite item I purchased was our cake topper. I think I liked the topper better than I did the cake itself. The butterfly with the beautiful satin bow really made an exquisite wedding cake topper.
I got so many compliments on my décor and wedding favor gifts. I got so many thank you’s from our guests for their gifts. 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. 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.
In about three and a half weeks I’m giving my sister a baby shower and I already know where I’m getting the decorations, favors and other party supplies from. I’m pretty sure on the items I’ve checked out so far, and plan to order them some time next week. 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 want to thank my mom for pointing me towards this easy way to shop, it saved me a lot of time and money. I also want to thank her for helping with the reception arrangements and filling out all those thank you cards. Thanks for all of your wonderful suggestions and all of your help, mom. I promise I’ll keep this place in mind when it’s time for our anniversary parties. There are great little suggestions for anniversaries, even decorations, cake toppers and little thank you gifts. I found suggestions that would be perfect for our mom and dayd’s 30th wedding anniversary party. My sister and I should get together and discuss it. Their 30th isn’t that far away, no use waiting until the last minute.
Finding Great Personalized Wedding Albums for a Wedding!
Monday, November 30th, 2009I started shopping for my themed accessories and supplies as soon as we were sure we were having a beach wedding. The first thing to get was the invitations for our beach themed wedding. I made sure I had plenty of extra invitations, just in case I had to rewrite some of them, and it’s a good thing I did. With the invitations all done and on their way to our prospective guests, I could move on to picking out the beach wedding dress I wanted for our ceremony. With all the selections of beautiful beach dresses and wedding gowns, I had a difficult time deciding what I wanted to wear. I fell in love with two of the floor length gowns, but wasn’t quite sure if it would be uncomfortable to wear to a beach wedding. I found a beautiful beaded knee length dress made of light weight materials of satin and lace, with spaghetti straps for my wedding.
Linen beach dresses with a crocheted halter covering was what I chose for my bridesmaids. My fiance’s wedding attire consisted of a blue shirt and white pants made of linen, and his groomsmen were also dressed in linen, with white shirts and sandy colored pants. The little sundress our flower girl wore looked so adorable on her and our ring boy looked so cute in his little khaki shorts and white shirt. Everyone in the wedding party looked fantastic and the bouquets were absolutely the most beautiful arrangements I could have found.
With all the pictures I wanted taken of our wedding ceremony and reception, maybe I should have bought two leather wedding albums. I planned to have pictures of all the fantastic decorations at our wedding and reception and photos of every guest that attended. Pictures of our satin canopy and flowered arch where we stood to take our vows was a definite must. Directly after the ceremony we left to change into more suitable beach wear for the reception party. Some of the bridesmaids and groomsmen wore their swim wear under their wedding clothes, and some went home to change. I wrote on all the invitations to dress in casual clothing for this wedding.
Our guests seemed impressed with the wedding accessories for our reception tables that were done in a beach themed décor. The place I shopped not only had the beach wedding album I wanted, but so many more accessories to go with it. The little beach chairs I found worked out perfectly as place card holders and they made great little picture frames too. I really liked them and I’m sure our guests did too. The beach wedding favors I chose for our guests made the perfect little thank you gifts. The little tea lights I chose were in the shape of miniature sand castles and to help them keep the memory of our wonderful beach reception. I found everything we needed, as far as accessories and decorations, for our wedding table and our guests reception tables. They had the perfect crystal stemware, serving set for the wedding cake, wine glasses and a gorgeous beach themed cake topper.
Some of the guests were commenting on the gorgeous décor of our reception tables. I added some tiki torches everywhere and put gel candles on all of our guests wedding reception tables to help add a touch of atmosphere to everything. With all the accessories and supplies for the wedding and beach party reception, it made planning so much easier. The beautiful ocean whitecaps and the warm sandy beach made the perfect dream wedding and reception location.
Every once in a while I take out our beach themed leather wedding album and remember our special day.

If you’re going with any kind of themed ceremony or reception at all, you will find loads of alternatives to pick from when you get around to shopping for gifts, invitations, and other products you’ll need. The colors at our wedding centered around silver and an icy blue. We also had fake snow and lovely candles at the altar, including our winter themed unity candle. The ceremony had a lovely, pristine look to it.
At the reception we had white tablecloths with red table runners on each and every reception table there. I had beautiful white orchids in gorgeous silver vases for our centerpieces and they went so well with the winter décor. I ran across some snowball ornament place card holders, and I used those for the reception. Whether we use them as ornaments or place card holders, they look fabulous, and they can be used for either. To express our gratitiude for their coming to our special day, we got our relatives and other loved ones champagne bottles favors and matching toasting flutes. wedding champagne flutes make great little thank you gifts. All of our tables were magnificently set up and shined with all the glitter and glamour of the winter time. The wedding cake topper we picked out was a snowflake made of porcelain, and our three-layered wedding cake sat atop a cake stand that was shaped like a sleigh. I picked out the cake serving set on the net, and it had wintery designs on it, too. The handles had little snowflakes done in white and wintry blue colors. It fit in seamlessly with the pen and guestbook set I had purchased.
For the special champagne toasting flute, we had beautifully designed winter wedding themed flutes with handles that were exactly like the cake server set and guestbook. The other things on our wedding table went perfectly with them, and they were designed with a wintery blue and white look with snowflakes mixed in.

We got our flower girl a necklace and we we let her keep the small crown she wore in the ceremony, and she was pleased with both of them. We got a ring boy tee shirt and a stainless steel yo-yo for our ring bearer, and he thought that was really neat. I got my maid of honor a bracelet made of crystal, and all of my bridesmaids received tank tops with their names written on them in small crystals. The men’s presents were handled by my groom. The guys that stood up in our wedding all got digital clocks, with the best man got his own mug and pen set. I think everyone was really happy with the thank you favors they received and I think they all had a great time at the reception.
Everything at our wedding and reception was fantastic and I owe it all to the wonderful selection of accessories and supplies I found online.

Elegant Theme Wedding Invitations For Your Wedding!
Friday, November 27th, 2009I really like a theme wedding. They can be so much fun. Last weekend I went to a fantastic wedding and reception. The ceremony and reception was done in country western.
A quaint little country church was the location of the wedding ceremony. It was really quite lovely with lots of flowers and candles around the altar, and satin bows and ribbons connected at the end of the pews. With the flowered hair pieces and the lovely baby blue dresses the bridesmaids and flower girl looked spectacular. The little ring boy was adorable in his little tux, and the groomsmen were very handsome in theirs, with the white boutonnieres in the lapels. But the real attraction was the beautiful bride and her elegant groom. They made such a handsome couple. A horse drawn buggy awaited to take the bride and groom to the reception.
The couple were having their reception at the country house they had bought a couple of months before. It was a lovely home with a couple of acres and a barn for their horses they planned on having. What a wonderful place to start a new life together, it’s perfect.
She did a fantastic job arranging her reception. Everything was fantastic. All the tables had red and white checkered table cloths, with little metal buckets of wildflowers in them. She did a fantastic job, not just with the décor, but also the themed favors. White christmas lights mixed in with a few lanterns completely encircled the picnic tables. The corn stalks and bales of hay really made this the perfect picture of a down home reception. There were so much set up for adults and kids to enjoy. Some of the kids were bobbing for apples while others were into a wild game of horse shoes, and still others were trying their hand at line dancing. Everyone was having the time of their lives.
The wedding cake was spectacular and the wedding topper had us all in stitches. It was the perfect themed cake topper. The western themed champagne flutes were really unique. And on each and every table she had little cowboy hats that were used as place card holders. Everyone thought they were so cute.
The food they chose for the reception was unbelievable. Since they did a lot of grilling, we had our choice of steaks, ribs, and chicken, plus all kinds of salads and vegetables. There was more than enough to eat. It was a great reception, plenty to eat, great tunes to dance to and games to keep the kids happy for hours. The country western theme was a blast.
Another fun reception is a beach party reception. A beach wedding ceremony is one of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. You can feel the romance in the air as the sun sets on the horizon. With the feel of warm breezes and the sounds of the water, you can feel the romance in the air. If I ever get married, I think this is the type of ceremony and reception I would want to have.
The bridesmaids wore gorgeous summer dresses and the groomsmen wore drawstring pants and linen shirts. Her gorgeous crepe bridal dress was as blue as the ocean waters, and his white linen attire made him even more handsome than he already was. You couldn’t ask for a more perfect ceremony than this wonderful dream wedding.
Not only was the ceremony fantastic, but the reception was exceptional too. All the tables were decorated with the beach theme in mind. She had a wonderful idea for centerpieces, with seashells, starfish and orchids surrounding two large white candles in a tray of sand. Her crystal champagne glasses had beach themed stems and her place card holders were little seashells.
Her beach décor was fabulous and she had everything from a beach cake topper to theme wedding cakes that worked perfectly. This was one of the most memorable weddings I’ve ever attended.
Themed Weddings!
Thursday, November 26th, 2009A theme wedding is my favorite. They truly can be a lot of fun. I just went to one of the best weddings and receptions I’ve ever attended. The ceremony and reception was done in country western.
A quaint little country church was the location of the wedding ceremony. The church was beautifully decorated with satin ribbon and bows, flowers and candles. The bridesmaids and flower girl wore gorgeous baby blue dresses with flowered hair pieces. The tuxes with the white boutonnieres in the lapels made the groomsmen and the little ring boy looked quite handsome. But all eyes were focused on the elegant bride and groom. They were a picure perfect couple. When the ceremony ended the happy couple left for the reception in a horse drawn buggy.
The couple had purchased a nice little ranch outside of town and that’s where they decided to have their reception. This was a prime piece of property, with a nice house, a barn and two acres of land. I would have loved to have started my married life out in a place like this.
You could tell she put a lot of effort into planning this reception. It was absolutely perfect. Each checkered tablecloth had centerpieces of wild flowers in little metal buckets. She did a fantastic job, not just with the décor, but also the wedding themes. White christmas lights mixed in with a few lanterns completely encircled the picnic tables. With the décor consisting of hay bales and corn stalks on the barn doors, this really gave the perfect appearance of a country reception. They made sure there were plenty of things the kids would enjoy as well as the adults. There were horse shoes, bobbing for apples, and barn dancing. It was great fun for everyone.
Their country western wedding cake topper was very comical and the cake itself was a masterpiece of confection. The cutest cake topper I’ve ever seen. The western themed champagne flutes were really unique. And she made place card holders out of these little cowboy hats. Everyone thought they were so cute.
There was plenty of delicious foods for everyone at the party. They grilled hot dogs and hamburgers, mostly for the kids, and steaks, ribs, and chicken for the adults, with choice of salads and vegetables. It was one heck of a cookout. It was a great reception, plenty to eat, great tunes to dance to and games to keep the kids happy for hours. The country western theme was a blast.
A beach themed reception is another great party to go to. There is nothing more beautiful than a beach wedding ceremony. It’s so romantic with the sunset above the ocean. The warm breeze and the sound of the waves simply adds to the ambiance of the ceremony. If I ever get married, I think this is the type of ceremony and reception I would want to have.
It was such a relaxed ceremony, with all wedding party and beautiful summer dresses and beach wear. Her gorgeous crepe bridal dress was as blue as the ocean waters, and his white linen attire made him even more handsome than he already was. You couldn’t ask for a more perfect ceremony than this wonderful dream wedding.
The reception was something special too. The reception tables were decorated with gorgeous beach themed accessories. She had a wonderful idea for centerpieces, with seashells, starfish and orchids surrounding two large white candles in a tray of sand. Her crystal champagne glasses had beach themed stems and her place card holders were little seashells.
She had everything in a beautiful beach décor, from her wedding cake topper to the wonderful theme wedding decorations she had put together. This was truly a wedding and reception to remember.
I’ve been researching sweet sixteen party favors…
Thursday, November 26th, 2009I needed some fresh ideas for my daughters sixteenth birthday party. A friend of mine said she went online and found a lot of accessories and party favors for her daughters party. So I decided to give it a try. It was surprising to find so many ideas for party supplies for the tables and little gifts. I found a lot of nice stuff I can use for her party. There were cookie cutters I used to make cookies in the shape of the number 16 for her guests.
I talked to my daughter and got her views on what type of party she wanted to have, and she decided on a roller skating and slumber birthday party. I then made reservations at the roller rink in town. Next, came the invitations for all of her closest girl friends. It wasn’t nearly as expensive as I thought it would be. Refreshments, pizza and hot dogs were also part of the package, and didn’t cost very much at all. I got the house prepared for the party that was to continue after skating. I decorated the house with birthday accessories,laid out snacks and put my sweet 16 cookies, I made, on the tables.
The cookie cutters wasn’t the only thing I ordered online. Since I was getting by so cheap with this party, I ordered extra gifts from the selection of sweet sixteen favors for her and her friends. I found pink photo albums for the girls and gave each of them a disposable camera for party pictures. I gave them the cameras before we left for the roller rink, but they had no idea about the albums until later. I’m glad they only took a few pictures at the skating rink, so they would be able to take pictures of the sleepover too.
Another party favor was a cosmetic bag with their first initial printed on the front. With the cosmetic bags I bought manicure sets and little purse mirrors to go with it. I bought festive little favor boxes and filled them with candies for each of the girls. At home, her sweet sixteen party and presents awaited, and we took care of that as soon as we got there. So, with all the other snack foods, soft drinks and the chick flicks we picked up on the way home, they were a bunch of happy campers. After they got tired of dancing to their favorite tunes, they decided to give make overs and manicures to each other. From all the noise and laughing you knew they were having the time of their lives.
After they tired themselves out, they decided to put on a movie and grab the popcorn. I wanted to give them as much space as I could and not intrude on their girl time, but I got an invitation to join them for a movie. It made me feel good that they wanted to include me. They actually made it through the first two movies before they started nodded off, one by one. Now it was down to just me and my daughter and she didn’t make it very long. Just before she closed her eyes, she let me know how much she appreciated her super birthday party.
They ate breakfast and cleaned up everything left from the birthday party before I even got out of bed. I was very impressed with their thoughtfulness in helping me out. They hung around with my daughter for a couple of hours, then the kids started heading for home. As they were leaving, the girls thanked me for the wonderful time they had and all of the sweet sixteen ideas I bought for them. It’s really neat being considered a cool mom.
I Found the Perfect Shop for Groomsmen Gift Ideas!
Wednesday, November 25th, 2009After being told about a website that had reasonable prices and a super selection of accessories for both wedding ceremonies and receptions, I decided to take a look for myself. It’s true, reasonable prices and many accessories to choose from starting with wedding invitations right down to wedding favor gifts. Along with all the super wedding accessories they also carry groomsmen gifts and bridesmaids gifts. Naturally, after getting a look at their inventory, I made the decision to order all my needed wedding supplies and decorations at their online store.
December was the month we planned on for our wedding date and I was determined to have a winter wonderland wedding, and with all the accessories they have to offer, I knew I’d have everything I needed to make it work. The winter wonderland wedding bulletins were perfect for our invitations. When I went searching for my flower girls basket and the ring boys pillow I found a wedding set that not only had both those things but also, a guestbook, pen set and a lovely wedding garter too. Not only did each piece match, but the price was more than reasonable. I was reading up on wedding ceremonies and that since throwing petals as the bride and groom leave the church may not be exceptable in many churches and couples are substituting bubbles in place of petals. So I checked out this online shopping site and found bottles of bubbles with lovely little bubble cards to go with them for our ceremony.
You should see all the accessories I was able to get for our reception. We also ordered our gifts for the bridesmaids, flower girl, ring boy and the rest of the wedding party. With all the groomsmen gift ideas that my fiance had to choose from, it was hard for him to make up his mind.
He got each of them a mug as their groomsman favors, with the word groomsman printed on it. Since the cheap groomsman gift and the rest of the people in our wedding was taken care of, I could shop for favors for our friends and family. I had quite a selection of winter themed gifts to pick from for our guests at the reception. As thank you gifts, I chose glass votive candles with a frosty winter theme, for all of our guests. The glass candles had wintery snowflakes all over it. The votive candles came in adorable little wedding favor boxes with a lovely silver thank you tag attached.
The place card holders I chose were beautiful little snow ornaments that the guests can take home as a little momento. I found champagne flutes, cake knife set, and the most adorable whimsical wedding cake topper for a winter wonderland wedding. Since the cake topper I chose was one with the bride and groom on skis, I decided to make it look authentic by having the baker design the top layer of our cake as a mountain of snow. Our wedding cake was confection perfection and I wanted as many pictures of it as I could get for our beautiful winter wedding album. We cut our cake and shared the first piece, then my brother in law gave a little speech as he toasted to the bride and groom, and then it was time for us to have our first dance of the evening. With all eyes on us as we danced, I felt as magical as a princess in a fairy tale.
The rest of the reception was just as perfect as the beginning, and everyone seemed to have a wonderful time. The men in our wedding party really liked the wedding groomsmen gifts we had for them and my bridesmaids thanked me for theirs too. We also got quite a few compliments from our wedding guests about the decorations and the lovely wedding favors they received.
The Cheapest Best Groomsmen Gifts on the Internet!
Wednesday, November 25th, 2009When my best friend informed me of a online shopping store for wedding accessories and supplies that could save us a little on the wedding expenses, I thought I’d give it a try. She was right, they had everything from wedding invitations to wedding favors and none of it was really expensive. I was surprised at all the great groomsmen gifts and bridemaids gifts they carry, as well as so many styles of wedding accessories for both ceremonies and receptions. Needless to say, that’s where I did all my shopping for the wedding decorations and supplies.
Since we had planned our wedding date to be in December, I wanted to have a winter wonderland wedding and reception and this was the perfect place to get what I needed for it. The winter wonderland wedding bulletins were perfect for our invitations. I lucked out when looking for my flower basket and ring pillow because I found a five piece wedding set that had both, plus a guestbook and pen set, and a nice leg garter to go along with it. Not only did each piece match, but the price was more than reasonable. I was reading up on wedding ceremonies and that since throwing petals as the bride and groom leave the church may not be exceptable in many churches and couples are substituting bubbles in place of petals. So I checked out this online shopping site and found bottles of bubbles with lovely little bubble cards to go with them for our ceremony.
The lovely accessories I ordered were unbelievable. We also ordered our gifts for the bridesmaids, flower girl, ring boy and the rest of the wedding party. My fiance was happy that they had so many cool best groomsmen gifts ideas for him to choose from.
He got each of them a mug as their groomsman favors, with the word groomsman printed on it. We could cross off the list of things to buy as far as a groomsmen gift idea, my bridesmaids and the rest of the wedding party, so I could now choose thank you gifts for the guests. There were so many wonderful gift ideas for a winter wedding to give to our guests. The wedding favors I chose were glass winter votive candles with a wintery frosted look for everyone attending the reception. Each candle had nice little silver snowflakes around it. They each came in their own little favor box with a silver hang tag.
I also bought place card holders that look like snowy tree ornaments that can be used as an extra little favor for our guests. There was so much for a beautiful winter wonderland themed wedding, like our cake server set, our champagne flutes and even our funny wedding cake topper. Since the cake topper I chose was one with the bride and groom on skis, I decided to make it look authentic by having the baker design the top layer of our cake as a mountain of snow. Our wedding cake was confection perfection and I wanted as many pictures of it as I could get for our beautiful winter wedding album. Right after we took care of the cake cutting, and my brother in law toasted us, we stepped out on the dance floor for our first dance together as husband and wife. With all eyes on us as we danced, I felt as magical as a princess in a fairy tale.
This reception was perfect, from the beginning to the end and all of our guests truly seemed to be enjoying themselves. The men in our wedding party really liked the wedding groomsmen gifts we had for them and my bridesmaids thanked me for theirs too. Many of the guests at the reception commented on how lovely the winter wedding reception was and how much they appreciated the lovely wedding favors.
