Wedding Supplies

Traditionally the wedding is all about the bride.  The flower girl however, takes a close second behind the bride, well actually during the ceremony she’s in front of the bride.   Almost as much careful planning and detail go into the flower girl dress and accessories, as those of the bride.  Many times a bride will choose to have her flower girl mimic her own style, the dress, color scheme, and even how her hair looks.

While these are all important contributors to the overall look of the flower girl, the most important accessory she could have is her flower girl basket.  Whether it’s white satin, chiffon, gold sequined, formal or casual you can find any basket to perfectly enhance this little angel’s ensemble.  Long after the flower petals are gone, your guests will remember how precious your flower girl was.

As the bride-to-be, your fairytale wedding is finally coming true.  You should look and feel like a princess on your special day.  You’ve got your elegant dress, matching satin, strappy shoes and exquisite jewelry.  There’s only one thing missing and no princess ensemble is ever complete without it, the tiara.

The most preferred bridal tiara is the regular crown-shaped one however there are many varieties to choose from.  Some are very simple in gold or silver while others are extremely ornate, made with beads and semi-precious stones.   They come in many shapes and sizes.  There are even some styles so simple that they look like a hair band.  Make sure to really look around and find the one that best suits your personal style as well as your wedding ensemble.

Back in the day, this formal book was a way to signify which family and friends actually attended your wedding.  In the past, such books resembled that of an address book, with not much frill or flair.  Occasionally you’d come across “the diamond in the rough” decorated to suit the occasion.  While an important detail that should not be overlooked, I’m happy to tell you that the days of boring old guest books are gone.

There are many creative ways to re-invent the wedding guest book tradition.  You and your new spouse can use the book as the official address book of your friends and family.  Create it in a way that captures all their current data, including a spot for cell phone and email addresses.  You can go so far as to have the photographer snap a photo of each guest as they sign, and include the picture beside their information in the book.  Another fun idea is to frame your wedding invitation, and let the guests sign the matte around the frame.  They can write well wishes and notes that become a treasured keepsake in your home forever.  The list goes on and on.  Just remember, the guest book is a reflection of you and should represent your sense of style.
