Choose from for the love favors

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

What better day for two people to marry than on Valentine’s day? We both wanted a Valentines day wedding. After we picked the church and the place for our reception, I started shopping for what they called the ‘fall in love favor.’ I found the invitations I wanted in no time. They were such pretty invitations with little silver hearts linked together on the front. I’m glad I listened to my mom and bought extra wedding invitations, because while writing them out I made a few mistakes.

With the wedding invitations out of the way, I knew it was time to start on the wedding and reception supplies. My mom went with me to find the perfect wedding dress and wedding shoes. She was a big help, once she stopped crying at every gown I walked out in. I finally found the wedding gown I was meant to wear and it only took seven or eight shops and 25 or maybe, 30 dress styles to try on. It only took the groom to be and his groomsmen one stop to find their tuxes. Since he wasn’t too choosy about his wedding attire, I was a little worried that he’d look more like a pall bearer than a groom. But that wasn’t the case, he really looked fantastic.

After making sure the wedding party’s needs were handled, I started to work on decorations for the church ceremony. Since this was a valentines day wedding, there were lots of gorgeous red roses, ribbons and big velvet bows on each row of pews. I bought a gorgeous unity candle with a love theme and surrounded it with lots of other beautiful candles. I was given permission for the flower girl to toss the red and pink flower petals on the aisle. You have to have permission from churches now to follow that tradition, because many of them would rather you not throw things like petals on the aisles, thankfully, that wasn’t the case with our church. It was the perfect wedding ceremony and our church décor was absolutely lovely.

I had many more accessories to buy for our wedding reception than I did the ceremony. I started with the love themed decorations and worked my way onto in love favors for our guests thank you gifts. I had beautiful red roses all around the room and hearts hanging from the ceiling. We had a heart shaped arch made of red and white balloons placed on the dance floor where the band was playing.

Our tables were so beautiful with all the lovely centerpieces of flowers and a little cupid in each one. Our little place card holders had beautiful little white pearls on them. There were some fantastic favors boxes to choose from for the love favors we bought for our friends and family. Some guests were commenting on how lovely the tables were with all the flowers and the lovely favor boxes. Our bridal wedding table was really exquisite too. Along with our love themed cake serving set were beautiful crystal heart champagne flutes, perfect for the bride and grooms toasting. The wedding cake was by far the most beautiful thing on our table. For our cake topper I decided on these adorable little love birds. Our bridal table was so fantastic with the crystal glassware and the beautifully decorated wedding cake.

Shopping online for all the accessories and supplies made this wedding the perfection of glamour and elegance.

After my husband and I returned from our honeymoon, I got started on all the thank you notes for our guests. I also received a few thank you’s from our friends and family telling us how much they enjoyed the wedding and reception and how much they liked their little love party favors. I think that was very thoughtful.

I had unique guest books

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

There wasn’t a bridal shop or accessories store I hadn’t checked for my wedding album and wedding guest book. I was really getting tired of searching and coming up empty handed. Then a friend at work suggested I check the web. So I decided to take a look online. And guess what? Not only did I find the wedding guest book I wanted, but a lot of my other wedding accessories too.

This guestbook was just what I wanted for our fairy tale wedding. I also ordered a pen and holder that was perfect for a storybook wedding. There was also lots of storybook ideas and the perfect wedding album for our wedding photos. I had no idea there were so many great ideas for wedding décor and such a big selection of accessories available. I found items for my flower girl, ring boy and bridesmaids, and my fiance found the perfect groomsmen gifts for the guys and his best man.

It was so nice getting all these accessories in one place. Of course, we still had to go to a caterers, a bakery and take care of a photographer and band. Except for our wedding attire, most of our wedding and reception items I ordered from the web. Our guest book wedding items was no where near as expensive as they looked. There were a lot of wholesale wedding accessories we were able to get. That really helps on the wedding budget for two people just starting out.

The wedding favor suggestions were really nice and I took my time picking out just the right ones. I wanted only the best wedding favors for our guests, after all these are our friends and family. The job of choosing favors was divided between me and my fiance, I bought for the girls and he bought for the men. We felt that was the best way to do it. I bought wedding carriage candles for our female guests that would add to the ambiance of any storybook reception. It may not have matched our fairytale theme, but the guys all got shot glasses.

I almost forgot to tell you, I ordered two guest books for our wedding. One was strictly for the ceremony, and the other were lovely unique guest books. I wanted the names of everyone that was able to stay for the reception, because some of the guests had to leave. And what a celebration it was! The dancing and partying lasted for hours. I’m so glad I picked out the perfect wedding album for our pictures, one with scrapbooking and a special compartment for keepsakes. It held a lot of little souvenirs of our wedding, like an invitation, wedding napkin and other memorabilia.

The time came for us to leave for the airport and we had to leave our friends and family to start on our honeymoon. Everyone said their congratulations and best wishes and complimented us on the wonderful reception as we were walking out the door. I hope everyone really had a great time, I know we did.

My new, wonderful husband didn’t tell me where we were going for our honeymoon. I couldn’t have been more surprised to find out we were spending the next seven days in Orlando at a Walt Disney World Resort. He thought a fairytale wedding deserved a fairytale honeymoon. I could hardly wait to get all the pictures developed and into my special album I bought just for our honeymoon photos.

Cheap wedding bridal garters

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

I just started planning my wedding, when my sister volunteered her help. We did a lot of shopping for my accessories. We must have covered every shop in town. We even checked out the shops they had listed in the yellow pages. But, I wasn’t crazy about the accessories they had to offer. Even the price tags on this stuff was a concern. I had a list of all the things I needed to purchase. With very little time left, we still had a lot of work to do. So my sister decided to see if she could find any decent wedding accessories with the help of her computer. She found so many great items for our wedding, including decorations and reception supplies.

We looked at several kinds of wedding and reception ideas they had. There were several themed wedding suggestions to work with. There were fantastic wedding decorations and some very nice wedding garters to choose from. The low price certainly didn’t match up with their high quality looks. I found the perfect wedding bridal garters to choose from and some came with a free tossing cheap wedding garter. It was a little difficult picking out the ones I wanted because there were so many to choose from. You could also choose just your keepsake garters or one of the many tossing garters that were available. It wasn’t easy choosing between the lacy and satiny garters with fancy bows and embedded pearls. But the one I chose had pearls and satin ribbon roses on it. It’s simply a gorgeous set of garters.

I also got my veil, tiara and a few other bridal accessories from there. It was an exquisite veil with pearl and ribbon trim. My tiara matched my veil perfectly with little pearls encased in gold. I was surprised to find out that they also carry tiaras for birthdays and bachelorette parties. There are so many party accessories they carry, not just for weddings, but for other occasions too. You should see all the different styles of party favors there are. Along with fantastic wedding favors, you’ll find birthday, graduation and bachelorette party favors too.

Just about every accessory needed for our wedding and reception party, I found here online. The wedding decorations for our church ceremony and our reception party was better than I could hope for. The satin bows looked so lovely on each row of pews and the flowers were spectacular. Our unity candle was really beautiful and came with taper candles for each side of the altar. Everything for our wedding ceremony, including our guestbook and pen set came from there. I found a lot of wedding reception accessories too. Our wedding cake looked even more spectacular with the gorgeous cake topper I bought. There were beautiful sparkling crystal glassware on every table.

Our friends and family really seemed to like the little wedding favors I chose for them too. I found the most adorable favor boxes to package them in. They seemed to be an added decoration for our tables. There were a lot of super suggestions for wedding reception centerpieces there too. I’m just so glad I took my sister’s advice and went online to search for wedding and reception accessories, it helped me to find everything I needed and I was able to save money too. There were a lot of discount prices on several of the wedding and reception accessories.

There were a lot of nice accessories and wedding favors for a honeymoon and a destination wedding online too. A destination wedding was an option we considered, but there were have been some guests that would have not been able to attend. We were very happy with the way our wedding and reception turned out, and we had everything we needed to make it perfect.

Cool wedding decorating ideas

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

There is so much to buy for your wedding and reception. Invitations are the first thing on you list after you’ve decided on a date and location. There is a variety of invitations to choose from. You could buy invitations with a theme, like for an ocean side ceremony, or just beautiful traditional invitations. I chose the beach themed invitations.

In fact everything from invitations to wedding favors were of a beach theme. There were a lot of beach themed wedding decorations to choose from too. I bought quite a few of the lovely gel candles for our reception tables. I really liked the adorable seashell place card holders they had.

There were awesome beach wedding favors to pick from too. I had a hard time deciding between the gorgeous beach tea lights, or the beach themed picture frames. Since, I obviously couldn’t have both, I went with the tea lights. I just couldn’t resist them. I liked them so much, I bought two of them for my house. I even found a lot of accessories for wedding decorating ideas. Like the beautiful flower baskets and ring pillows that went so well with our theme. I even got my veil and tiara from there. In fact, I bought most of our accessories and reception supplies there. There is so much to choose from, and I was able to purchase some of the accessories at wholesale prices. Weddings can run into a lot of money, and having a place like this to shop really helps out financially.

One of the things I found so nice, is the many choices of themed wedding accessories they have. I particularly like the seasonal accessories and decoration ideas. If we were getting married in the winter, I definitely would have gone for the winter wonderland theme. The accessories and supplies for the winter wonderland wedding were exquisite. But since we were getting married in July, I went with my favorite summer theme, the beach. I have to say, it turned out fantastic. The reception was a lot of fun, and my guests were really impressed with the reception and wedding accessories I had chosen. Our wedding cake topper became a topic of discussion. Our bride and groom on the beach cake topper was really cute.

They also thought our beach themed champagne glasses were quite unique. From the cake server set to the centerpieces on all the tables, everything looked fantastic. The favor boxes I chose were especially made for a seashore reception table. I can’t believe I got all of these super accessories and supplies online. And the best part was the great prices. I was really surprised that I found all the items I did while browsing the internet and how easy and convenient it was. They also had accessories and decorations for baby showers as well and it sure would have helped me out if I would have known about it before I gave my friend her baby shower.

I knew I’d have plenty of pictures of the wedding and reception, so I purchased two of their beautiful albums. There were quite a few albums with scrapbooking pages and a special compartment for keepsakes. They have everything you can think of for your wedding and your reception.

There were so many lovely comments about our wedding decor and how nice our reception was. We all had such a wonderful time, dancing and sharing this day together. I felt a little sad when it was time for us to leave the reception. But we had to get to the airport and be on our way to Aruba for our honeymoon. I was really excited about this trip, not just because it was our honeymoon, but I’ve never been to any place like this before. I have a feeling this is the start of many years of excitement and happiness to come.

Great idea for wedding reception favor

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

I debated a long time before deciding on what type of wedding ceremony and reception I wanted to have. I checked on three different themes, beach, garden and country western. But on the other hand there is a lot to be said for tradition. Destination weddings also sounds like a great idea. A destination wedding in Vegas or maybe the gorgeous oceanside in Hawaii sounded awesome. The islands of Hawaii would definitely be my first choice. I soon put that idea to rest, there are too many people on our guestlist for a wedding like that.
But there were a lot of other ideas to work with, including a winter wonderland wedding. But since we were getting married in the summer months, I didn’t think I should go with a snow scene. I decided to go with the last, but not least of the wedding theme ideas, and have a fairy tale ceremony and reception. With all the accessories there are available, I could have the wedding of my dreams. The bakery even had wedding cakes that worked out with my idea. So this was final. I wanted a fairy tale wedding and reception.
I had no problem finding the perfect wedding invitations online. Then I started choosing my wedding and reception accessories and supplies. I picked out floor length dresses for the girls in my wedding party, and found an exquisite gown for myself. My handsome fiance and all of his wedding party looked so elegant in their tuxes, even the little ring boy looked like royalty. I could feel all eyes on me as I walked down the aisle, and half way expected them to bow to their new queen. Everything about our ceremony was exquisite. The flowers, the candles, and the gorgeous satin bows on the end of the pews really set the whole thing off. As we were leaving the church, everyone tossed rose petals and cheered us on. Instead of a limo, we had a horse drawn carriage waiting outside.
Our reception was a total success, with all the storybook accessories, it looked like the inside of a castle. I was able to find all the accessories I needed for this special themed wedding and some very lovely wedding favors for our friends and family. I even found adorable boxes for each and every wedding reception favor. I can’t believe all the accessories I was able to get for my fairy tale reception. I bought little coaches that made perfect place card holders, and exquisite champagne flutes with a storybook design. They just have everything I could possibly need for the perfect fairy tale wedding and reception.
Some of our guests commented on the themed décor and told us what a great time they were having. One of our guests stated that she’d never seen such a gorgeous ceremony as ours. If I do say so myself, it was quite spectacular. A fairy tale wedding was a great idea, and it really helped to be able to have such fantastic accessories to choose from. Since this was a special day in my life, I wanted everything to be special. I made sure their wedding favor ideas were of a storybook theme, just like our wedding cake and other accessories. I wanted to give our guests more than just favors, that’s why I chose gifts that could also be used as souvenirs. I wanted to give them something they would look back on with fond memories.
I had a lot of thank you note to take care of when we got back from our honeymoon. There was even thank you notes available in storybook theme. I wouldn’t mind having a fairytale anniversary renewal ceremony.

These are some classy Coffee favors

Monday, April 13th, 2009

Coffee favors are vital when you plan your wedding shower. When looking back I noticed that wedding showers changed from plain to fun and exciting. The gifts for the guest has more thought put into it. At your shower you appreciate your guest and want to say thank you by giving them gifts. Even the way you buy wedding favors and decorations have changed. More people are buying and planning their wedding by purchasing there items online. You can also get great wedding ideas by just browsing.

The most happiest moment of my life was planning my wedding shower, but I knew weddings can be very hectic, stressful and time consuming. I wanted the perfect wedding favors for my guests. I would plan my wedding once I found the right wedding favors. The web gave me options to figure out what was out there. They had a huge variety of wedding favors. You could choose wedding favors by season, wedding favors by theme, and wedding favors by type. Having so many different wedding favors to choose from was hard because I didn’t know which to pick. I knew the best wedding favors are those that are fun and functional.

In my search I came across coffee and tea favors. I knew coffee and tea favors are simple, elegant and inexpensive. Coffee and tea favors are very popular. You can choose from a large selection of tea party favors and supplies. My search was almost over when I decided to go with coffee and tea favors. My guests would be impressed and at the same time I would be saving money. Coffee and tea is a refreshing drink and are gifts that keep on giving. The party favors are a great way to make your guests feel special and is a great way to say thank you. Coffee and tea favors also add a touch of elegance and also for your guests to remember your special day. Coffee and tea favors will give the room that special amazing smell.

I had to decide on which favors to get, coffee favors or tea favors. There are other different tea favors to purchase, you are not just limited to coffee and tea. I found tea in fusers, coffee cup candles and many more coffee and tea favors to choose from. Choosing the right one was getting difficult and was hard to make a choice because I fell in love with all of them. I then realized that all of my guests may not like coffee or tea. My decision was to give everyone coffee and tea favors. I would then let my guests pick their preference. This way they would not get a gift they did not like. Trying to pick the best coffee and tea favors came to an end when I decided to pick tea infusers for the tea lovers and coffee cup candles for the coffee lovers. This decision would make the entire room smell of coffee and tea scents and also make my tables look gorgeous.

It was finally the day of my wedding. The tables were set and all the decorations were set up. When the room was finished it looked so elegant and also inviting. Coffee and tea aroma was throughout the room and gave you this cozy feeling. I could hardly wait to get to the reception with our guests, I was so excited. When they did arrive they were excited and amazed as I was. All my guest said that my shower looked elegant and how the room smelled of coffee and tea. My decision on coffee and tea favors was an excellent choice.

Great Wedding Collections!

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

Ever since I started my search for a collection set, I’ve probably seen hundreds of them! There were so many wedding accessories at a variety of prices. But there is just so much to consider when you’re planning a wedding and reception, that there just doesn’t seem to be enough time. My sister had a great idea that would save me time and money for all of my accessories.
She suggested that I try the internet for wedding supplies and accessories. It’s a good thing I decided to check it out. There were so many great accessories at wonderful prices.
I ran across wedding collections that had a lot of the items I needed. There was a lovely set that had the flower girl basket and ring boy pillow, wedding guest book and pen holder and a beautiful bridal garter and handkerchief.
I had never heard of a collection for wedding accessories before. Some sets had other items in them which included unity candles. There was one wedding collection set that was perfect for themed weddings. There were unique sets for beach themed weddings and gorgeous wedding sets for an Irish wedding too. But we are keeping our wedding ceremony and reception simple. So I went with a gorgeous white satin that had lovely bows with satin edges.
Most of the accessories and reception supplies I looked at were pretty reasonably priced. There were even wedding accessories that came with pretty substantial discounts. That really helps when you’re trying to plan a wedding and reception on a small budget.
I loved the wedding toppers they had. 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 depicted the whimsical 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.
There were plenty of gorgeous accessories for our wedding ceremony. There were lovely flowers, candles and a very beautiful aisle runner. They also had the veil and tiara I wanted. The white confetti I ordered for the guests to toss as we exit the church was perfect.
Our reception hall was filled with the accessories I bought there. The crystal champagne flute and glassware sparkled on all the tables, and the flower arrangements made excellent centerpieces. I bought picture frame place card holders that they can later put a memorable photo in. I hope everyone likes the crystal figurines I bought as wedding favors. Everything at our reception was absolutely as perfect as I wanted it to be.
Some of our guests were impressed with the décor I had chosen for the reception, and particularly like the lovely guest book and pen set I ordered. When I told them all I got with the wedding collection, and what a great price it was, they were really surprised. One of the ladies said she was going to tell her daughter about it, since she is planning her wedding.
Along with all the other fabulous wedding accessories I bought for our ceremony and reception, I also bought a gorgeous wedding album. I decided on a white brocade wedding album with a place for keepsakes and scrapbooking pages.] I made sure I had a lot of keepsakes to hang on to and plenty of photos too.
I loved their album despins so much that I bought two, one for the wedding and one for the honeymoon. With all the pictures we took on ou honeymoon, my album will be filled with the memories of the great time we shared there. 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.

I like these new Ring Bearer Pillows i got

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

Online shopping for our reception accessories, flower baskets, and ring bearer pillows was my mom’s idea. I really enjoyed the convenience of shopping online and having all my supplies delivered to my door, saved me the trouble of running all over town. 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 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. There were many lovely styles for satin ring pillows.

They had a fantastic selection of centerpieces and champagne flutes for the bride and groom and guests. So many choices of glassware and candles to add to the elegance of each table. 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. 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.

I chose the gorgeous crystal paperweights as the thank you gifts for our friends and families. 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. 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.

Our wedding décor and wedding favors seemed to make quite an impression. A lot of our friends and family thanked me for such lovely wedding favors. What I really liked about this place I shopped was the fact they have more than just cake toppers and a ring bearer pillow. There are ideas and selections for all parties, including showers, birthday and girls night out parties. My sister just told me the other day that she got all the favors and supplies she needed for my bridal shower at the same place I bought my wedding supplies. It was all courtesy of mom’s suggestion.

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’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. 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.

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. Filling out our thank you cards and working out all the reception arrangements was another thing I’m grateful for my mom doing for me. You’re really a life saver 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 saw a lot of lovely ideas for my mom and dad’s 30th wedding anniversary. Me and my sister should look at the possibilities together. It won’t be long before they are celebrating their anniversary, we might as well get an early start on planning.

Bridal Fashion and Accessories!

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

I started looking for all the accessories and supplies I needed for our wedding day, just as soon as we set the date. Since I love to shop online, I decided that was as good a place to start as any. With all the great accessories and reception supplies I found online, it was easy to find what I needed for our wedding. Starting with the beautiful invitations I chose, and finishing with the super wedding favors for our friends and family.

We had no problem choosing the theme we wanted for our wedding and reception, it had to be a beach theme. Our friends and us have spent many days on the beach, since we were kids, growing up here and it seemed like the perfect place for our wedding.

So the first thing I did was to order the beach themed wedding invitations and get them in the mail as soon as possible. Everyone answered with a definite yes, and everyone seemed really excited about sharing this day with us. With that out of the way it was time to start looking for all of my bridal accessories I would need. Shopping online has almost become a hobby for me, but even I couldn’t believe what a wonderful selection they had to offer. I ordered the most beautiful tiara and hair comb from there. Not only did I find the perfect hair accessories, but my wedding jewelry too. I looked at all the jewelry and found the necklace and earring set I wanted to wear with my wedding dress. It had little pearls and crystals entertwined and gave such a luxurious sparkle to my ensemble.

There was so much in the way of bridal fashion that was absolutely exquisite and the best part was, it wasn’t all that expensive. I also bought a few items I can use while on our honeymoon. Even though we were getting married on the beach, I insisted on a floor length wedding dress. My bridesmaids wore a light weight satin dress for my wedding and so did my little flower girl. They all looked so lovely in their wedding attire.

There were tiki torches and those little white christmas lights everywhere and a dance floor my fiance had fixed there. The reception tables had been decorated in an oceanside motif and the little sailboat place card holders was a great addition. As wedding favors I wanted to give them something special from the seaside collection, so I chose the beach themed photo frames for each of them. I think they all liked the frames as much as I did.

On the bride and groom table were our toasting flutes, lovely candles in their beach theme holders and lots of lovely tealights. Everything at our wedding reception came with a beach theme décor, including our fantastic wedding cake topper. We had a cake topper of a young couple holding each other as they walked along the beach. I’m so glad they had all the supplies and bridal accessories we needed to plan the perfect beach wedding and reception. There was so much seafood, such as lobsters, crabs and shrimp and we also had plenty of chicken and steaks for the non seafood eaters. We all had a wonderful time enjoying good food and good music to dance too. It was a little sad when we had to leave for our honeymoon and everyone was still partying it up.

After we returned from our honeymoon, I had to get down to writing all the thank you notes to our guests. Whenever I want to remember my wedding day, I’ll take out my beach themed photo album and look at all the pictures we had taken.

Need a wedding topper?

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

Many aren’t hip to the cake topper market… but there are so many ways to go with bride and groom cake toppers. There is such a variety of toppers to pick from, there’s ethnic, seasoned themed and the humourous wedding topper. These days a bride can make her wedding and reception to be any way she wants it to be It really helps to know that you can plan any type of wedding your heart desires and you can find all the accessories and supplies you need. You can plan a wedding and ceremony almost anywhere you desire. You can rent a castle for a storybook wedding, or maybe you know someone that would let you use their country home or barn for an old fashioned down home country western wedding. There are all kinds of possibilities for brides and grooms today.
We just attended a beach wedding and reception for a friend of ours. It was unbelievable. The beautiful sun shining on the water made for a lovely wedding ceremony. Their wedding reception was one to remember. There’s nothing better than having friends and family around with a glorious beach to party on. We had such a wonderful time, with great music, bonfires and great foods to enjoy. We both felt so privileged to be at this fantastic wedding and reception.
When we got married I decided on a country western theme. You’ll never guess how much fun a country western reception can be. Our tables were set up in country style with table cloths, little buckets of wildflowers with mini white lights strung all around them. It really helped add a country motif with bales of hay and corn stalks everywhere. I found all the wedding and reception accessories and supplies I needed to make this western frontier wedding a success, and everything I bought was of a country western theme, including our cake topper, and wedding favors.
We got so many compliments on our ceremony and reception, and everyone really liked getting to take a hayride, especially the kids. That was a real treat for them. We had tons of food, there were steaks, chicken and ribs for barbecueing, all kinds of salads, vegetables and desserts galore. It was a lot like a big family reunion. We had so many guests at our wedding it looked like we had invited the whole county. We ate, drank, dance and partied most of the night. When we left for our honeymoon, there were still people laughing and having a good time. With all the pictures I have of our fantastic ceremony and party, I’ll never forget our wonderful western themed wedding and reception. Memories like this are very precious, and unforgettable.
There’s no trouble making your wedding and reception as perfect as you want it to be, when you have the right place to shop for accessories. I looked no farther than my computer for everything I needed. It beats running from store to store and fighting all the crowds. Now I will admit I didn’t get my bales of hay and some of the other items online, I did have to buy a few things at the stores. When it came to the really important stuff like cake toppers and other needed supplies, I had to order them from the online shopping site.
You can also find fantastic accessories for seasoned themes. I found the winter themed accessories particularly beautful. You could have the most gorgeous winter wonderland wedding with all the winter wedding items they offer. These days your choice of wedding themes is totally up to you. Whether you want the traditional wedding and reception or want to go for an entirely new concept in wedding ceremonies and make your dream wedding a reality, it’s all up to you. The choice is yours.

New Satin Ring Bearer Pillow

Wednesday, April 8th, 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. She was right, I even found the perfect wedding invitations to send out, and some other accessories, all at reasonable prices. There was also quite a few other items that I was able to get at a discount. 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 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. 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.

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. What I really liked about this place I shopped was the fact they have more than just cake toppers and wedding ring bearer pillows. There were all kinds of supplies and great ideas for birthdays, wedding showers, baby showers, and girls night out parties too. 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’m pretty sure on the items I’ve checked out so far, and plan to order them some time next week. That’s when we get to find out if I’ll have a little niece or a little nephew. Then I can order the favors in pink or blue, even though there are other neutral colors I could choose.

My mother’s suggestion on shopping by computer really helped out a lot in terms of time and money. Filling out our thank you cards and working out all the reception arrangements was another thing I’m grateful for my mom doing for me. You’re really a life saver mom. This is one way of shopping that will come in handy for our anniversary someday. They had some very nice ideas for anniversaries, like decorations, cake toppers and even favor gifts for guests. I saw a lot of lovely ideas for my mom and dad’s 30th wedding anniversary. I think I’ll get a hold of my sister so we can check out the possibilities together. It won’t be long before they are celebrating their anniversary, we might as well get an early start on planning.
