Shabby Wedding
December 7th, 2011 | By WeddingPlanner77
My sister’s wedding will be held in my parent’s country home. My sister mentioned that she had always wanted to hold her ceremony here, since it brought her a lot of memories. This is the same place as well where she was molded to the person that she is at the present. This is the very spot where she had grown and become the perfect partner to her soon to be husband. I think it had a nice touch to it, and was quite surprised that my sister was quite a sentimental person.
For her wedding, I decided to get her one of those slate signs as wedding reception décor. I specifically asked the artist to write down happy ever after on the sign, which my cousin and I hung on the photo wall area to be used during the reception. We also added a few shabby country items which is truly reflective of the couple’s origins. The photo area was well appreciated by guests, and it was wonderful to have my sister so delighted with what we have done. For sure, the photos taken in this very place will bring in lots of good memories for all who attended.
Two individual lives joining. That is what marriage is all about right. The unity candle is a great symbol of the culmination of two families uniting.
One great way to save money on your big day is to combine your centerpieces with your party favors. Centerpieces are a main part of your decorations and can have all sorts of functions. From the traditional arrangement of flowers, to a more personal choice to wishing wells surrounded by pens for guests to make well wishes to you, to a way to entertain children, centerpieces make a statement about your wedding and can make you and your guests enjoy the day more.
Sometime in between finding the man of your dreams and cake tasting you may want to think about what you want to be on the very top of your icing.
