Wedding Event Reception Checklist
Planning your wedding should be exciting, not hectic. The best wedding professionals are booked up to two years in advance. Planning your wedding reception decor will avoid costly mistakes. This is why it's wise to take several photos of the reception site as a decoration reference when you're imaging the layout and buying wedding decorations. Plan it out well in advance and your wedding reception decorations will be fantastic!
Glass photo coasters are all the rage this year with a variety of shapes and themes to compliment your wedding motif and create a functional thank you gift that friends and family will enjoy for years to come. From wine bottle stoppers to butterfly-shaped cookie cutters, today's wedding favors are unique, practical, and affordable. Glass bowls of differing sizes are filled with a variety of sweets and then scattered randomly across the tables. Wooden scoops or dainty silver spoons are placed in each bowl so guests can help themselves throughout the night and little boxes or bags can be filled with confectionery and taken home by guests as a wedding keepsake.
Candles are one decoration that can be used in almost any wedding no matter how inexpensive or elaborate the wedding. Candles are especially nice if it is an evening wedding and the reception hall is dimly lit. Candles are always an elegant choice, and the flickering light certainly adds a touch of romance to the room. Be creative and consider the theme of your wedding when selecting table accessories.
Candles in unique floating tea light holders glimmer and reflect against the glass bubbles and water.River Washed Stones, make the base of the design, but that's only the beginning! You can create and re-create with every fill. Even if your wedding is made a post more casual affair, the addition of a centerpiece, cloth napkins and elaborate table linens makes any wedding a grand event. Candles are one of the most popular table centerpieces because of the romantic atmosphere they create. Small candles can be arranged around larger pieces, even around vases or potted flowers, to create a larger centerpiece.
Wedding Reception Balloons
Balloons can be used to create a feeling of elegant sophistication or make a statement that says "Let's party!". It all depends on what you want to say and feel on your special day. Balloons can add a fun touch to the celebrations especially floating from the ceiling. Ribbons trailing down add to the effect.
Flowers are normally put together in beautiful display bouquets or as part of a collection. They are a great way of adding the finishing touch to a theme, ie a white wedding might have Lilly arrangements, a traditional wedding might have red roses. Flowers look fantastic anywhere at a wedding ceremony or reception but if one is looking to find the perfect touch for the center of their tables, a floral centerpiece will definitely do the trick. These centerpieces can be high or low, modest or full. Flower Arch in front of the entrance is also a common decoration for the wedding celebration. Fresh flowers are preferable for pleasant fragrance and intoxicating smell.
