Curious about Wedding Silver Bells…

You could hear the wedding bells ring as we headed for our limo, with our guests yelling their good wishes and tossing rose petals our way. 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. We had the best in wedding accessories and reception supplies to make it all a dream come true.

Starting with the invitations and ending with the perfect little thank you gifts, they had it all. Our invitations were quite lovely with the silver printing on the front. There was a gorgeous flower girl basket and ring pillow among all the accessories that I decided to buy for our ceremony. It was actually more than the basket and pillow, it also had my wedding garter, guest book and pen set, in a gorgeous rich garnet. Five items bought as a group, that cost a lot less than you would think.

There were a lot of other items I ordered too, like my lovely aisle runner for the church ceremony. The process of selecting the wedding bell was really a great one. After we were pronounced man and wife, everyone at the ceremony rang their little bells as we walked back down the aisle. I really liked the idea of the bell ringing.

The accessories for our wedding ceremony wasn’t all I ordered, I also got our supplies for our reception there too. There was a marvelous selection of reception accessories to pick from. I wanted to make our reception tables sparkle, so I ordered as much crystal as I could get away with, starting with crystal champagne flutes. There were twisted stemmed flutes which I ordered for our guests and a special toasting flute set I ordered especially for the bride and groom for our table. Wedding silver bells really made our tables shine with elegance, and I thought it would be a nice gift for our guests as a little something extra to show our appreciation.

There were so many lovely accessories, that I really wanted to buy them all, but that would have been going a little overboard on the décor. 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 also chose these very elegant looking favor boxes with a little thank you tag on them, for the wedding favors. The silver favor boxes, along with all the other accessories on the tables, really added to the décor. There were also some very unique centerpieces on our reception tables, made up of flowers and candles, that I bought online.

At the end of the reception hall was our wedding cake on a special little table. A beautiful wedding topper sat on top of our chocolate cherry three tiered wedding cake. I really fell in love with the cake topper I bought, with it’s attractive little ribbon made into a bow at the bottom of the heart with calla lilies added. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding and reception. With all the tons of wedding pictures we had, I finally had to order another wedding album to store them all in. There were several pictures of us cutting the wedding cake and feeding that first piece to each other. There were also pictures of our first dance together as man and wife, our guests on the dance floor and an adorable picture of the flower girl and ring boy dancing together.

Our friends and family told me they had a fantastic time at our reception and that they think I did a spectacular job in planning the wedding décor. 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.

Curious about Wedding Bell Favors…

There was the sound of wedding bells, the tossing of rose petals, and the traditional run for the limo while friends and family cheered us on. That’s how it was on our wedding day. 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.

Starting with the invitations and ending with the perfect little thank you gifts, they had it all. 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 came in a beautiful garnet, and there was also a guestbook and pen set, and a very lovely wedding garter. All five pieces of wedding accessories at a very reasonable price.

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 the wedding bell. 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. I really liked the idea of the bell ringing.

I bought accessories online for our reception as well as our ceremony. They really had quite a collection of gorgeous wedding reception accessories to choose from. I have this thing for shiny things, and I found a lot of crystal glassware, including beautiful champagne flutes for our reception tables. There were twisted stemmed flutes which I ordered for our guests and a special toasting flute set I ordered especially for the bride and groom for our table. The wedding bell 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. I did order some very nice wedding favors for our guests that were lovely glass table coasters. Each set of coasters had a special calla lilie design. I also chose these very elegant looking favor boxes with a little thank you tag on them, for the wedding favors. The silver favor boxes, along with all the other accessories on the tables, really added to the décor. I purchased flowers and ordered some beautiful candles to make into our centerpieces for the reception tables.

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. I decided on a beautiful heart with calla lilies and ribbon as our cake topper. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding and reception. We had so many photos of the wedding ceremony and reception that I went back online and ordered a second wedding photo album. We have quite a few pictures of the the cake cutting and sharing of the first piece. There is the most adorable picture of our little flower girl dancing with the very elegant ring boy, our bride and grooms first dance together, and all of our guests having a great time on the dance floor.

The compliments I got from our guests on our wedding décor was really nice, but it really made me feel good to know that they all had such a great time. I plan on having another wedding ceremony and reception for our anniversary one year and I was so glad to hear that my wonderful husband thinks that’s a fantastic idea.

Custom Wedding Silver Bells!

You could hear the wedding bells ring as we headed for our limo, with our guests yelling their good wishes and tossing rose petals our way. 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.

From the wedding invitations to the wedding favors for our guests, they had everything. On the front of our invitations was silver printing which added to the elegance of the card. I found a lovely ring pillow and flower basket set that I also ordered from them. It was a beautiful satin garnet color and included a wedding guest book, pen set and wedding garter. All five pieces of wedding accessories at a very reasonable price.

They also had an aisle runner I really liked, so I ordered that to my list of wedding supplies. The process of selecting the wedding bell was really a great one. All the little bells were ringing at the end of the ceremony, as we made our way to the limo. It was really a unique idea.

The accessories for our wedding ceremony wasn’t all I ordered, I also got our supplies for our reception there too. There were all kinds of wonderful ideas for our wedding reception. I have this thing for shiny things, and I found a lot of crystal glassware, including beautiful champagne flutes for our reception tables. I chose the bride and groom toasting set for us and champagne flutes with elegant twisted stems for our friends and family. As an extra wedding favor for our friends and family I decided to choose wedding silver bells.

I could have bought every gorgeous item they had on their list, but I think I would have been overdoing it just a little. Glass coasters was our choice of wedding favor gifts for our guests. They were specially designed with a calla lilie on each one. I found the perfect little silver favor boxes with thank you tags to package the wedding favors in. The wedding favors in their little silver boxes made our tables even more elegant. There were also some very unique centerpieces on our reception tables, made up of flowers and candles, that I bought online.

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.

Everything at our reception turned out to be perfect. I had to go back online where I bought our wedding album and puchase a second album for all the pictures that were taken at the wedding and reception. There were several pictures of us cutting the wedding cake and feeding that first piece to each other. 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. Someday I’d like to have a renewal ceremony and reception for our anniversary and thank goodness, my husband agrees.

Do your research before choosing favors for wedding!

It took me a while before I could decide on a theme for our ceremony and reception party. I wasn’t sure if I wanted a beach wedding, a garden wedding or a country western wedding. But on the other hand there is a lot to be said for tradition. I also thought about a fantastic destination wedding. I thought about the tropical shores of Hawaii or the excitement of Vegas might be a great idea. I would love a tropical island wedding. I soon put that idea to rest, there are too many people on our guestlist for a wedding like that.
Then I thought about a winter themed wedding. But since we were getting married in July, that just didn’t seem appropriate. So I decided to go with every young girls dream of marrying a prince, and chose to have a storybook wedding, just like in the fairy tales I read as a child. With all the accessories there are available, I could have the wedding of my dreams. There were even special wedding cakes you could buy that fit in perfectly with the theme. So my decision was made. I wanted a fairy tale wedding and reception.
Through online shopping I found lovely story book invitations. There were also plenty of accessories and supplies to pick out for my storybook wedding. My wedding dress was absolutely gorgeous and the bridesmaids and flower girl had beautiful dresses that were floor length. The groom (my prince) and all of the groomsmen and ring boy wore tuxes that made them all look so elegant and sophisticated. As I made my way down the aisle to my handsome prince Charming I felt like I was living a dream. 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 had every wedding party favor done up in storybook themed favor boxes. I was amazed at all of the themed accessories there were for our fairy tale reception. I bought little coaches that made perfect place card holders, and exquisite champagne flutes with a storybook design. They had everything imaginable for a storybook wedding and reception.
Some of our guests commented on the themed décor and told us what a great time they were having. One of my guests said it was the most beautiful ceremony she’d ever been too. I have to admit, it was quite special. I’m so glad that I chose this theme and found so many accessories to help me make it happen. Since this was a special day in my life, I wanted everything to be special. Everything from our wedding cake topper to the wedding gifts for our friends and family went with our storybook theme. I wanted our guests to leave with something that would remind them of this special day. Something that could hold the memory of today for them as well as for us.
As soon as we returned from our honeymoon, I got started on all the thank you notes I needed to mail out. There was even thank you notes available in storybook theme. I wouldn’t mind having a fairytale anniversary renewal ceremony.

Some of the Best Wedding Champagne Flutes I’ve seen!

We picked January for the wedding day since I have always wanted a wedding that had a winter motif. There are so many beautiful accessories and reception supplies to make the perfect wintery wedding dream come true. From wedding invitations to wedding favors there are all kinds and styles of accessories to choose from for almost any themed wedding you’re planning to have. The colors at our wedding centered around silver and an icy blue. Our altar had replica snowflakes next to the unity candle and other candles, which all had a wintry look to them. It was a magical wedding.
All of the reception tables had red table runners and white tablecloths. I had beautiful white orchids in gorgeous silver vases for our centerpieces and they went so well with the winter décor. As for our place card holders I found the most lovely snowball ornament card holders for our reception. They double as both card holders and ornaments, and they do a charming job at both. As wedding thank you gifts for our friends and family we decided on these lovely toasting flutes and little novelty champagne bottles favors with bubbles. If you’re looking for a wonderful way to say thank you, personalized toasting flutes do the trick. Our reception hall called to mind a scene of freshly-fallen snow in the middle of winter. 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. The artwork on the serving set for our cake, that I purchased over the Internet, also had a winter look to it. 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.
For the special personalized toasting flute, we had beautifully designed winter wedding themed flutes with handles that were exactly like the cake server set and guestbook. They had the little snowflakes and were done in white and icy blue colors and were really exquisite with all the other winter themed accessories on our wedding 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 mini tiara our flower girl wore was hers to keep, and we got her a necklace besides, which she was very pleased about. Our ring bearer was excited because he got his own tee shirt and a yo-yo made of stainless steel. 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. He bought a best man mug and a neat pen set for the best man, and everyone else received a battery-operated digital clock. 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. By finding deals on the web, we were able to come in under our budget. It wasn’t just wedding items, either; I got plenty of things for the honeymoon as well. We got a ‘Do Not Disturb’ pillow to hang on our doorknob, along with hats and shirts for newlyweds. The decorative little pillow really came in handy.
