Unique wedding pen

Monday, April 20th, 2009

Going online seemed like a good idea to find a wedding guest book pen and other supplies. There were tons of wedding themes you could choose from, as well as styles and colors of decorations and accessories. I found some pretty neat ideas I liked for themed weddings and receptions, that I really liked. I thought since we were getting married in January it would be the perfect time for a beautiful winter wonderland wedding and reception party. At first, I kinda wished we were getting married in early December so we could have a Christmas wedding, with a big tree and everything Christmasy. But the winter wonderland weddings are really spectacular too with all the lovely winter accessories available. So, a winter wedding it was to be. Now it was time to put my plans in motion.

First I found the perfect winter wonderland wedding invitations to send to our friends and family. Next, I picked out the accessories for our ceremony, including the ring pillow and flower basket. I was thinking I had everything for our winter wedding I could possibly need, but I found out that I had forgotten something. The wedding guestbook and wedding pen completely slip my mind. So, I searched through the wedding supplies and found the beautiful winter wedding guestbooks and wedding pen sets, and picked my favorite. There were snowflakes, hints of blue and perfect little crystals on the cover of our winter wedding guestbook. They also had the wedding pens that went perfectly with this gorgeous winter guestbook. Now that I had our winter wedding guestbook and pen, it was time to find the perfect wedding photo album. Not only did they have a great selection of wedding albums, but some pretty nice anniversary albums too. I’ll have to remember this site so I can come back in a few years for my anniversary album.

It was time now, to check out ideas for decorating our reception and getting our supplies. There was everything for the perfect winter wonderland wedding and I started with the crystal champagne flutes with the decorative winter themed stems, designed just like our wedding guest book and pen. They have such beautiful wedding stemware. With all the beautiful crystal champagne flutes, the gel candles and the exceptional looking centerpieces I picked out, our reception tables were simply elegant. Another great thing about the place I got all my wedding accessories and reception supplies is that they had quite a few items at discount prices, which really helps a couple just starting out. I was surprised at what little we paid for such exquisite accessories.

They also had the most adorable wedding cake toppers to choose from. It was the perfect wedding topper for the bride and groom and the joys of the winter season. Our cake was five tiers high and covered in sugar snowflakes with blue and red designs of winter. Our choice of a wedding cake stand was a big silver sled. Our guests were really impressed with the silver sled cake stand idea that my fiance thought of.

On our the reception tables for our friends and family I had chosen these adorable little snowmen place card holders. We gave our guests little snowflake gel candles as wedding favor thank you gifts. One of my favorite decorative accessories was the snowflake favor boxes we packaged their gifts in. They really added to the winter décor of the reception tables. Everyone seemed to be having a great time and the favor pens were a hit! I’m so glad everything turned out so perfect, and I owe it to the great help I got from online shopping. It gave me a lot of help for planning the décor.

Best Ring Bearer Pillow!!

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

Online shopping for our reception accessories, flower baskets, and ring bearer pillows was my mom’s idea. I just placed my order and they delivered them, and it sure was better than running from store to store. They even had the type of invitations I was looking for, and a lot of discounted items to choose from too. There was also quite a few other items that I was able to get at a discount. I saved money on all the tiaras I needed for myself, bridesmaids and my flower girl, plus a lot of other accessories, like flower girl basket, rose petals and I also found terrific ring bearer pillow wedding suggestions. I couldn’t believe all the adorable ideas for satin ring pillows.

I couldn’t believe the lovely centerpieces and champagne flutes there were for the guests, with special bride and groom flutes too. There were elegant choices of candles and glassware to enhance my tables. There was such an assortment of themed wedding and destination wedding ideas, and a great selection of wedding favors too. There everything, including favor boxes for beach, winter, garden and other themed weddings. There are beautiful accessories for beach, winter, garden and other themed ceremonies and receptions. I really liked the novelty favors they have for a Las Vegas themed party, like the little photo albums and keychains.

As wedding favors I chose crystal paperweights for all of our guests. They were really lovely, so lovely I hated to package them, but the favor boxes were very decorative and added that extra special something to our tables. I found the perfect cake topper. The cake topper was the most exquisite part of our wedding cake. The beautiful satin bow and butterfly just made our cake even more beautiful.

Everyone seemed impressed with the décor and their wedding favors. Some of the guests came up and thanked me for their gifts and told me how beautiful they were. What I really liked about this place I shopped was the fact they have more than just cake toppers and a ring bearer pillow. There are ideas and selections for all parties, including showers, birthday and girls night out parties. My sister just told me the other day that she got all the favors and supplies she needed for my bridal shower at the same place I bought my wedding supplies. It was all courtesy of mom’s suggestion.

My sister is going to have a baby in a few months and I’m throwing her a baby shower, guess where I’m getting all of my shower supplies? I already know what supplies and favors I want to order, but I have to do that until some time next week. That’s when we get to find out if I’ll have a little niece or a little nephew. Even though there are a lot of neutral colors I could use, I’d rather try to have the décor and supplies in a boy or girl theme.

I want to thank my mom for pointing me towards this easy way to shop, it saved me a lot of time and money. I also want to thank her for helping with the reception arrangements and filling out all those thank you cards. You’re really a life saver mom. I promise I’ll keep this place in mind when it’s time for our anniversary parties. There are great little suggestions for anniversaries, even decorations, cake toppers and little thank you gifts. I found suggestions that would be perfect for our mom and dayd’s 30th wedding anniversary party. Me and my sister should look at the possibilities together. It won’t be long before they are celebrating their anniversary, we might as well get an early start on planning.
