You have planned the biggest day of your life. The wedding is all arranged, all that is left to do is organize the wedding decorations. There are various products on the market that you can buy for your wedding and it is relatively easy to find supplies that will fit in with your color scheme, theme or style. It is also nice for the guests to be able to have a keepsake to remember the best day of your life.
Probably the most used wedding decoration is the party favor. This staple of the wedding world is still a great decoration and keepsake to adorn the table and for the guests to take home. Party favors come in all shapes, styles and colors and plenty of party suppliers will be able to offer the perfect favor for your day. A notable option to choose for the party favor is a tube filled with sweets from a past era, or an envelope with a Lotto ticket placed inside.
Another fun idea is to lay the tables with disposable cameras and guest books. This will help the guests to remember your great day in print, and they can put lovely comments and best wishes into the guest book. They also make lovely attractions for the tables, and as there are numerous styles and themes, you are sure to find one that fits with the genre of your wedding.
You can't have a perfect wedding day without confetti. There are so many more on the market now, and it has come a long way from the traditional paper confetti. A great choice is something like rose petals that can be used to dress the tables. Confetti cannons are also a good way of helping the wedding party to go with a colorful bang, and help to bring the party alive.
No matter what you have planned for your wedding day, there are plenty of wedding decorations to choose from. Rest assured that you will find any product you desire to make sure that your special day is perfect.
Do It Yourself Wedding Decorations
Change the setting
The easiest way to keep from using cut flowers and dried petals is to have your reception and ceremony outside. This sounds like trouble in the making, but it's a lot easier than it sounds. If you have a large space in someone's yard or in a park(with everyone's permission), you can set up a large tent for the reception hall and even the ceremony if you'd like.
Since guests will be under a roof, there is little need for worrying about the weather and they can still see the beauty of the outside as they eat. Find a beautiful setting and light some lanterns around the tent, it creates a soft glow well into the evening.
New ingredients
Of course, if you're looking for the most earth friendly eating options, you will want to select the buffet option with a limited portion of food. Any additional food can be donated to the local shelter if you'd like.
You will not be using any plastic forks or cups, so you will need a lot of glasses and silverware to make sure that you don't run out. Napkins can be cloth and washed instead of thrown out.
As decorations, you can spread lavender along the tops of the tables and then include small tea lights as well as larger candles as needed. Find candles that burn clean (as soy ones do), and these are quite friendly to use.
If you're looking for a centerpiece, you can choose to have tall silver or gold vases in the middle (metal) and fill them with ice and a bottle of champagne for the table. This looks great, plus it serves a function. You can then give away the vases for planters at the end of the night.
Using kegs instead of individual beer cans is a great way to cut back on waste—even if it can be recycled. Recycling tends to be more and more difficult to do as the night goes on.
Let the conversation and the happiness decorate the night, not things that you will only throw away the next day. Being earth friendly isn't difficult when you think of other ways that you can use things after the wedding is over.
