The wedding bells rang, rose petals were being tossed and our friends and family were yelling their congratulations as we left the church for our limo ride to the reception. That’s the way our ceremony went. I have to say, it was a fantastic ceremony too, and with all the help I got on accessory suggestions, it wasn’t hard to put it all together. There was everything for to pull off the perfect wedding ceremony and reception.
Everything from the lovely invitations to the fantastic party favors for our guests was in their wonderful collection of wedding supplies. The silver print was a lovely touch to our invitations. I also ordered from this fantastic choice of accesssories, the ring bearer pillow and flower girl basket, which came as a set. It was a beautiful satin garnet color and included a wedding guest book, pen set and wedding garter. A five piece wedding set that wasn’t very expensive at all.
There were a lot of other items I ordered too, like my lovely aisle runner for the church ceremony. I’m really glad we went with wedding bell favor. As soon as the wedding ceremony ended and we were leaving the church all the guests rang their little bells in celebration of our union. It was really a unique idea.
I bought accessories online for our reception as well as our ceremony. There was a marvelous selection of reception accessories to pick from. I wanted our reception tables to shine with elegance, so the first thing I ordered were the crystal toasting flutes. I ordered special flutes for us that said bride and groom on them, and beautiful twisted stemmed flutes for all of our guests. The wedding bells favors I picked out not only helped to add the sparkle I wanted for my tables, but served as a wedding favor for each of our guests.
It was hard not to order all they had to offer in the way of accessories but I restrained myself for fear of over decorating. We gave out glass coasters as wedding favors for our friends and family. They had a lovely calla lilie design on them that was absolutely beautiful. I put the wedding favors in little silver party favor boxes that came with thank you cards for each of them. The shiny gift boxes added that extra sparkle to our guests tables. On each reception table was a centerpiece I made up of lovely flowers and some very elegant candles.
The wedding cake we had set up at the end of the reception hall was really spectacular. Three tiers of luscious chocolate and cherries with a gorgeous wedding cake topper as the crowning glory. Our topper was really exquisite, with calla lilies and a beautiful ribbon, tied in a bow. Everything at our reception turned out to be perfect. With all the tons of wedding pictures we had, I finally had to order another wedding album to store them all in. We have quite a few pictures of the the cake cutting and sharing of the first piece. I have pictures of our friends and family, the ring boy and flower girl on the dance floor together and our first dance as husband and wife.
I’m so glad everyone had such a wonderful time, and I received so many compliments on the decorations of the wedding and reception. I told my husband that I would really like to do this again someday for one of our anniversaries, and he agreed that it’s a good idea.
