After being told about a website that had reasonable prices and a super selection of accessories for both wedding ceremonies and receptions, I decided to take a look for myself. She was right, they had everything from wedding invitations to wedding favors and none of it was really expensive. Along with all the super wedding accessories they also carry some pretty awesome gifts for the people in the wedding party, and really fantastic wedding supplies for my ceremony and reception. First of all, we decided to have a winter wonderland theme wedding since we were getting married in December, and I found so much to work with. First I ordered winter wonderland wedding bulletins to use as our wedding invitations. While I was browsing through the flower basket and ring pillow selection, I discovered a great deal on a five piece set with a wedding guest book and pen, wedding garter and the flower girl basket and ring pillow. All the pieces matched and I was really surprised at the total cost of the set, it was so much lower than I would expect. I know, after reading a few wedding articles, that many churches won’t allow the tossing of petals for the bride and grooms departure and many couples have chosen bubbles to be blown as they exit the ceremony. This online shopping site I’m on has little bottled bubbles for just that purpose, with little bubble cards for hang tags, which I placed an order for.
The lovely accessories I ordered were unbelievable. I was able to find gifts for not only my bridesmaids, flower girl and ring boy, but for everyone in our wedding party. My fiance was happy that they had so many cool groomsman gifts ideas for him to choose from, with such reasonable prices for even the personalized groomsmen gifts. The groomsman gift of his choosing were glass mugs that had the word groomsman printed on the mug. Since the guys and the rest of the people in our wedding was taken care of, I could shop for favors for our friends and family. There were so many wonderful gift ideas for a winter wedding to give to our guests. I decided on these really beautiful winter frosted glass votive candles for our friends and family as their thank you gifts. Each candle had nice little silver snowflakes around it. The votive candles came in adorable little wedding favor boxes with a lovely silver thank you tag attached.
The little snow ball ornament place card holders I bought make great little thank you gifts too. I found champagne flutes, cake knife set, and the most adorable whimsical wedding cake topper for a winter wonderland wedding. Since the cake topper I chose was one with the bride and groom on skis, I decided to make it look authentic by having the baker design the top layer of our cake as a mountain of snow. I had many pictures of our wedding cake taken for my winter themed wedding picture album, it was so adorable. We cut our cake and shared the first piece, then my brother in law gave a little speech as he toasted to the bride and groom, and then it was time for us to have our first dance of the evening. With all eyes on us as we danced, I felt as magical as a princess in a fairy tale.
The rest of the reception was just as perfect as the beginning, and everyone seemed to have a wonderful time. The wedding groomsmen gifts and the bridesmaids gifts were a big hit. We also got quite a few compliments from our wedding guests about the decorations and the lovely wedding favors they received.
