Wedding Bouquet

Your Cheap Wedding Bouquet

By Suzanne Daykin

Your cheap wedding bouquet could easily end up being very expensive, flowers cost a fortune especially if you have your heart set on a particular color or flower and you may have to write a blank cheque if you have chosen an out of season flower!

There is an alternative and that is looking at artificial flowers, don't think cheap and plastic, artificial flowers have come a long way since the sixties! The new age silk flowers (or cotton/polyester blend) can look stunning, manufacturers use real flowers to create the look and spend a fortune on getting the color just right. This does mean that when you first look at this alternative for your bouquet the price can be the same as real, in some cases more!

Where you save money is shopping around for the best price, look at the resell value of all your flowers - check out online auctions and if you were looking to preserve your bouquet you have saved yourself that cost. The best artificial flowers seem to be online or in florist shops, craft shop's artificial flowers tend to look a bit tacky but still worth a look as they could have a great buyer for their store

Other practical advantages are if you have hayfever or a pollen allergy or if you are having a destination wedding all of your flowers could be made up and taken out with you. This could save you a big headache when you arrive as you don't want to be panicking about the flowers and where you could get them. Plus if it is a hot climate some flowers can wilt very quickly, silk flowers will last the day and beyond. Helping you have the perfect location and your dream flowers.

Don't just think cheap wedding bouquet you could have silk flowers for button holes and if silk flowers are not your thing you could have a very sparkly bouquet made of silver wire and crystals, if you wrapped the stems with ribbon it would look stunning. Most craft and gift stores have these already to be used as a display in your home and you could use it for that after!

Wedding Theme

Theme Wedding Ideas to Get You Inspired

By Christina Friedrichsen

The possibilities for a themed wedding are only limited by your imagination. Here are just a few theme wedding ideas to get your creative juices flowing:

African safari - Make the wilds of Africa part of your themed wedding. Have animal print tablecloths, guests in safari attire, African food and music, safari themed centerpieces and favors.

Alice in Wonderland - Bring elements of this Lewis Carroll fairytale into your themed wedding. Why not have a tea party? Use Alice in Wonderland character cut outs such as the White Rabbit, and the Cheshire Cat in your décor. Have the groom dress as the Mad Hatter.

Angel - Bring a celestial charm to your wedding. Cherubs in all shapes and sizes can be used as a motif for all your wedding related decor.

Aquatic - Since beach weddings are so popular this is one of the most common themed wedding ideas. Even if you aren't getting married at the beach or on a boat you can still use elements of the sea in your wedding.

Baseball - Some baseball enthusiasts love the sport so much that they tie the knot on a baseball diamond. If you don't want to go that far, you can still use baseball as your wedding theme by incorporating this sport into your wedding. Give baseball shaped chocolates as favors, and have your wedding cake made in the shape of a bat and ball. You could even dress the part, and encourage guests to do the same.

Bees - Have these busy little insects as your theme by using the bee motif in your décor. Serve baklava for dessert, and give jars of honey as gifts. Also have your wedding cake made in the shape of a bumblebee.

Butterfly - Are you a butterfly enthusiast? Use the butterfly motif in all aspects of your themed wedding - from the stationery to the wedding cake. If you're wedding is outdoors, some real ones might even show up!

Carnival - Still a kid inside? Fun theme wedding ideas are to rent carnival games, cotton candy machines, snow cone makers, and other fun items to give your wedding the feeling of a carnival. One thing is for sure: kids will love it.

Cars - Are you and your partner car buffs? Why not make cars part of your wedding theme? Arrive in your favorite car (this might be a '69 Mustang rather than a traditional limousine). Use model cars in your décor and have the wedding cake made in the shape of a car.

Chocolate- This is one of the yummier theme wedding ideas. If you're crazy about chocolate (who isn't), why not use it as your theme? Use rich chocolate browns when decorating. Dark brown candles could be used as centerpieces - so could bowls or baskets filled with fancy chocolates. Also use chocolate place cards - and chocolate favors, and have several chocolate desserts, including a chocolate wedding cake. What about a chocolate fountain?

Cinderella - Although you might have a hard time finding a carriage in the shape of a pumpkin to bring you to your wedding, you can still be Cinderella for the day by taking other elements of this hugely popular fairy tale and incorporating them into your wedding. (Actually you can find a carriage in the shape of a pumpkin - but it's a cake topper.) Decorate with magic wands, crowns and miniature castles.

Daisies - It's simple to base the theme of your wedding on this lovely flower. Use daisies in all of your bouquets and centerpieces, and also place candy daisies on top of your wedding cake. Find invitations that include this flower and use pressed daisies on your place cards. Give seed packets of daisies as favors.

Golf - If you and your partner love to spend time on the golf course, why not make it part of your theme? Have the wedding at a golf and country club. Give golf balls (with your names and wedding date) as favors. Have your wedding cake created in the shape of a mini-golf course.

Gothic - Is black your favorite color? Are you crazy about Dracula movies and Ann Rice books? Why not have a gothic wedding? Gothic style weddings aren't that uncommon. They usually involve plenty of black and they definitely don't adhere to tradition. A gothic wedding can take place anywhere - from a graveyard to an old mansion.

Mickey Mouse - If you are having your wedding at Disney World, then bringing this popular cartoon character into your wedding will be a breeze. If you're having the wedding elsewhere, simply use the Mickey Mouse motif in your décor. You could even have someone dress the part and show up during the reception. Don't forget to have the DJ play the Mickey Mouse theme song during the reception.

Motorcycles - What about arriving to your wedding on a Harley? If you were a real motorcycle enthusiast this wouldn't seem like an outlandish idea. And if all your friends were bikers too, a procession through town, with everyone - including the bride and groom - would only seem natural. Other ways to incorporate the biker theme into a wedding is to use the Harley Davidson theme colors of orange and black and either have your wedding cake made in the shape of a motorcycle, or use a motorcycle cake topper.

Roses - A rose theme wedding is perfect for the summertime when roses are in full plan. Incorporate the rose theme into your wedding by having a 'rose ceremony' during your wedding ceremony. Have the wedding in a rose garden, and use roses in all of your bouquets and centerpieces. Use roses made of icing to decorate your wedding cake. Give single roses as favors.

Zoo - Okay, it might sound like the most outlandish of the theme wedding ideas, but if you love wild animals, why not have a zoo theme. Lions and tigers and bears - not to mention snakes, leopards and lizards. Imagine having these creatures as part of your wedding? Some zoos open their doors to couples wanting to getting married there. Couples can use animal motifs in their décor, including animal print tablecloths, and chair covers. Tropical plants can be used as centerpieces, and vines can be placed along the walls. Stationery with paw prints can be used, and a wedding cake can be made in the shape of a zoo animal.

Table Decorations

Choosing Wedding Table Decorations For Your Dream Wedding

By Beverley Post

Wedding table decorations are an important part of the ceremony. However, more than one type of table will need to be decorated at a wedding and it is important that you understand everything involved. It is also important that you realize the style of the reception itself, which has an impact on the decorations.

First off, the bride and groom need to decide whether they want a head table or a sweetheart table. The former is generally longer. It seats the bride, the groom, both sets of parents, and sometimes the bridal party. The latter is a smaller table which provides a more intimate setting for just the newlyweds. There is also a selection of tables for the cake, the food, the guests, and the gifts.

As you can see, there are a lot of tables to decorate. This can really stretch the budget, so it is imperative to plan things well. Generally, it is better to arrange the tables intricately, which can add aesthetic value. For instance, arranging tables in a U shape is better than placing them in a straight line.

For the most part, white table cloths are the classic choice. They also make it easier to decorate with brightly colored plates, napkins, and glasses. You can also go with a nice centerpiece to draw attention to the table.

Understandably, some people prefer bright colors all the way around. When your table cloths are brightly covered, it makes for a very dramatic palette. As well, stains will not show up as easily, which is quite practical. After all, everybody has accidents but they need not ruin the reception.

As far as extra decorations go, you have plenty of choices. Lots of couples like to include things like streamers and ribbons. You can always layer your table clothes for a nice effect as well. Lace or patterns on the cloths are also nice, and drapes tend to add a sense of elegance to any reception.

You can also sprinkle your table decorations. For instance, many people choose to add a little extra ambiance to their tables by sprinkling glitter over the table cloths and around the centerpiece. This adds a lot of extra dazzle and glamor. Confetti works the same purpose. For a more romantic mood, think about sprinkling flower petals or even autumn leaves. If you are throwing a beach wedding, then sea shells make a welcome addition.

No matter what kind of decorations you choose for your wedding table, you have the opportunity to make it yours. You have the opportunity to add anything you want. Rose buds, glass beads, pebbles, snow flakes - just make sure your tables reflect your personality and your wedding theme. If you go that route, then everything will certainly be beautiful. Including centerpieces will always add some much needed glamor. As well, you should seriously think about including party favors and takeaway gifts for your guests. If all else fails, you can also include candles all around the tables for a truly romantic touch.

Wedding Designer

Why Do We Need a Wedding Designer?

"The key question isn't, 'What fosters creativity?' But it is, 'Why isn't everyone creative?'"

- Abraham Maslow

The wedding/event designer, once a luxury reserved for only the wealthy and elite, has become a necessity in today's world. Planning and orchestrating a successful event can require the coordination of numerous details. A wedding designer can provide services in various capacities, from concierge to coordinator. It's important to learn as much as you can when you are looking into hiring a wedding designer for your event. How does one person manage to stay on top of the myriad decisions that must be made?

Often the biggest challenge will be to keep yourself focused as you bringing your thoughts and ideas to a particular venue. You have to adopt your vision to a location without losing it. Designing an event or a wedding takes much more time and effort than planning it. Planning an event is like a production of the show, whereas the venue is a stage, the bride is a director and your designer a producer. A good wedding/event designer will help you to express your vision. Begin with inspiration, ideas and dreams! He will help you to generate an overall concept, conceptualize a style and communicate this to your guests. He should be able to find a way to create a wedding uniquely your own.

What makes an event to be a success? I think the "WOW" factor, the feeling of joy that people will feel when they remember the party later. Your wedding/event designer should create a unique atmosphere to ensure that your guests would truly enjoy the memorable moment of your life. When you design a wedding you are surrounding your guests with a part of who you are. It would be a challenge for a wedding designer to read your mind, sometimes as we say get into your head to understand what are the most important aspects, that matter to you. He has to help you to express yourself and what you are aiming for.

Usually at the first meeting with your wedding/designer, you should discuss an ultimate concept or theme, including color and mood. You have to be as original as you can and design something that you are comfortable with. You have to pinpoint what do words like romantic, chic or elegant mean to you. You will be surprised how differently each one of us defines them.

Style is adaptable; it can be anything for anyone. Signature elements of your own wedding design have been overlooked in the pass, some of the elements like ambiance lighting in reception area will add enormous visual impact, adding scent will tickle your guests' senses and using texture in your floral decor and table setting will leave fabulous and breathtaking effect.

A good wedding designer also should maximize any budget and make the most out of the couples' valuable time and hard-earned money. He should be there to ensure proper setup and breakdown of each decorative element. Any wedding and event presents a challenge and it will turn out to be successful when you will love the result and your guests will never forget it.

Wedding Venue

By Alan John Vaufrouard

All in One Wedding Venues

• Music


• Wedding reception dinner


• Use of facilities for guests


• Overnight accommodations for guests

These large all in one wedding venues are ideal if you are having a small to moderately sized wedding party. A great deal of couples who want a civil ceremony with their wedding are choosing this option.

Many of them will offer the bridal party the opportunity to spend the evening the night before so that they can get ready in the morning without a rush. Some of these stately homes even offer beauty treatments for the bridal party as part of the package.

An all in one wedding venue takes a great deal of the stress out of planning a wedding.

Wedding Locations

By Vanessa Honda

Popular Laguna Beach Wedding Locations - Pros and Cons of Each For Wedding Photography

Aside from the photographer, the wedding location is the most important factor determining the look, feel and quality of your wedding portraits. Popular Laguna Beach Wedding Locations, Tivoli and Seven-Deegres, both have some drawbacks and some attractions for producing stunning wedding photography.

Tivoli

Tivoli is on the beach. The obvious advantage to this is you can get a variety of beautiful beach shots. However, if you look at beach pictures that have been taken in this location, you will notice that many of the shots have distracting beach houses in the background. Unless that doesn't bother you, plan with your photographer to take pictures facing the water rather than with the rocks (and houses) in the background. Aside from this minor house distraction, Tivoli provides a variety of natural looking outdoor background and settings. There are rocky cliffs, ocean vistas, wooded areas and buildings with old European designs.

Some of the Tivoli reception centers are designed with an outdoor theme in mind. While this provides the potential for great natural lighting, if the whether turns cold or starts to rain, much of the photographic attraction to this location - the beautiful outdoor scenery could be nullified as it may be too cold or wet to venture outdoors. However, if it does rain, there are still some beautiful arches, doors and buildings against which to take your wedding pictures. Indoors, there is a beautiful black grand piano in the middle of a large room. A creative and artistic shot that various photographers have used with this piano is to have the bride lie down on the piano and take a shot of her from above. The black piano against the white wedding dress and the curve of the piano constrasted with a properly positioned bride creates a beautiful memorable artistic shot. So, while the real Tivoli photographic gem is the out door potential, there are some great indoor shots to be had.

One indirect photography consideration of Tivoli is the cost. Some packages cost $11,000+ for 100 guests. This could cause a bride to need to scale back on her photography budget in order to pay for the location.

Seven Degrees

Seven Degrees is a popular Laguna Beach wedding location with a modern look and feel. If this is the look that you desire, you will be happy with the number, quality and variety of modern and angular backgrounds. There are indoor areas that have large windows which provide excellent natural lighting. In addition, the location provides a large variety of high quality artificial lighting. This allows opportunities for creative filter and exposure work.

The potential disadvantage of this location is the lack of diversity in the genra. Seven Degrees is not on the beach. Thus, beach shots are not easily available- a significant disadvantage for many who choose to have their wedding in Laguna Beach because of the beach. Like Tivoli another disadvantage is cost. Although the prices are not posted and subject to change, the cost can be significant. Again this can limit the amount of money available for photography.

Laguna Beach is a beautiful city with temperate whether and many lovely wedding locations. Outside of the photographer you choose, nothing influences the style, variety and quality of your wedding pictures as much as the wedding venue. Taking the time to evaluate the locations based on their photography potential can help ensure you get the captured photographic memories you can treasure for a lifetime.

Wedding Cake Toppers

Executive Summary By Abhishek Agarwal & David Urmann





Wedding Cake Toppers - 3 Tips To Choose A Great Topper

Ages ago, a baker's daughter was about to get married. She requested her father to create a perfect emblem that symbolizes her marriage. She wanted this emblem to indicate her love amidst the two of them getting married.


Father tried numerous designs and after 'n' number of careful deliberations, he found something best suited for the bride & the groom. He was sure that this symbol would best signify the love his daughter wanted to show to her groom.


On the D-Day, the wedding cake arrived, and at the sight of that emblem the bride's & the groom's eyes sparkled with adoration & love. There in the middle of that wedding cake, stood two miniatures, two lovely figurines that were perfectly dressed for their wedding.


The baker explained that he thought this was the perfect symbol showing marriage, and it explains that the couple is surely the main attraction for the entire ceremony.


With the growing demand among the consumers, the toppers of the wedding cakes are now available in varied designs, colors & styles. Those of you interested to have some tips about the right ways of choosing your wedding cake toppers, below are some important tips that you can utilize for your D-Day:


1. Do not ever use wedding cake toppers made of plastics.


Actually people do opt the plastic made toppers for their wedding cake when they have a stringent budget, but the problem is that these are available at all department stores. As a result they do not add any glory to your wedding cake.


The wedding cake topper should one piece that has never been seen before in any other wedding. This might get you a bit over your budget, but it would be all the worth with the guests praising your wedding cake and it being an exclusive for a lifetime!


2. Be creative.


Try conceptualizing some designs & styles at your end. Personalized wedding cake & the topper indeed makes your wedding very creative and adds a sheer layer of romance, glitz & glamour to your wedding at large.

Then just use it in your topper of the wedding cake.


3. Generation Honor.


Those who have a real consciousness regarding the budget, in case you are lucky and it is still available, try using the wedding cake topper that was used in your parents' wedding.


The idea is that whatever concept or style you pick for your wedding cake topper, it would symbolize your big day, your marriage, and that already makes it a special item.


The toppers on the wedding cakes are not just embellishments on a cake.





Lovely Design Options For Wedding Cake Toppers


The earliest types of wedding cake toppers have a choice of newly wed poses. Toppers now can be made of paper mache, cellophane paper, wax, and even Swarovski crystals.


Here are some options for your wedding cake toppers:


Monogram Cake Toppers-These are typically a figurine of number, letters, or initials. Edible Cake Toppers- An already lip smacking cake can be more delightful and fun with edible cake toppers. Custom Wedding Cake Toppers- The array of customized or personalized cake toppers is wide and varied. Custom wedding cake toppers are handy in every design, theme, color, and shape you can imagine. Unique Wedding Cake Toppers- If you and your partner desire to make your wedding cake topper one of a kind, think about getting some unique cake toppers that dramatically symbolizes your love for one another.


Then cake toppers of babies or children can very well embody this great plan.

Wedding Bouquets

Executive Summary By Laura Firenze and Nathan D Sire

Perfect Wedding Bouquets

Here are some tips on how to choose the perfect bouquets. The first bouquet that should be designed is the bride's. Once you have figured out exactly what you would like for your bouquet, you can begin to design the bouquets for your bridesmaids. The size of the bride's bouquet should complement the size of the bride herself. More petite brides are generally advised to carry more dainty bouquets such as poseys or nosegays. Taller women can get away with a more abundant bouquet, either in the form of a larger nosegay or as a more dramatic cascade or arm bouquet.

The shape of the bouquet that you choose should echo the style of your wedding gown. The prettiest bouquets will be appropriate to the season. A nice touch is to include seasonal accents in your wedding bouquets, such as wired acorns for an autumn wedding or holly mixed with red roses if your wedding is at Christmastime.

After you have chosen the perfect bridal bouquet, it is time to think about the bridesmaids. Choosing bridesmaid bouquets of a casual flower like daisies would not be a good pairing with an elegant bride's bouquet of orchids, but you could mix calla lilies with orchids.

A simple way to handle this is to choose bridesmaid bouquets that are in the same flower as the bride's, but in the color or their bridesmaid dresses (or another color in your wedding palette). Just as brides are having crystals added to their bouquets for sparkle, you can pull a detail from the bridesmaid jewelry to bring into their bouquets. For example, if your bridesmaids are wearing bridesmaid jewelry created from deep red crystals, a really chic idea would be for them to carry green bouquets accented with wired red crystals.

The wedding bouquets are one of the most important accessories. Take the time to choose the bouquets that will add the most beauty to your wedding day.

Beautiful Silk Wedding Bouquets

Now you can with silk wedding bouquets. If you are not sure why silk wedding bouquets are the best types of bouquets to be used during your wedding ceremony, then read along!

Nowadays, many people are having their wedding ceremonies outdoors. Fresh flower bouquets tend to wilt if they are not exposed to ideal weather conditions. If you ever renew your vows, you can use the same silk wedding bouquet. Many women love keepsakes from their wedding and now their wedding bouquet can be part of the memories. With a silk flower wedding bouquet, you will have one thing less to worry about.

Another reason to choose a silk wedding bouquet is that the masters who create these artworks can match any wedding colors. Women noticed when colors do not match, so luckily with a silk flower bouquet you will notice that they match exquisitely to your wedding colors. Some companies have a wedding color tool that will assist in your search for the perfect wedding colors for your silk bouquet. They also categorize colors by season such as winter and summer wedding colors and by month. You are also recommended to choose wedding color combinations for silk flower arrangements such as baby pink and chocolate brown for the most expressive silk wedding bouquets.

Since a lot of hard work is involved in creating these gorgeous seasonal wedding bouquets you will need to request your silk flower bouquet well in advance. Use the wedding tools that you find to seek the most perfect wedding colors for your seasonal silk wedding bouquet.

Wedding Decoration

By Peter Meyers

Wedding Decorations on a Budget - Keep the Flowers Simple


Flowers play a main part in the over all wedding decoration and you can't imagine a wedding without them, as they help setting up the romantic environment. But as their prices can vary a lot from one flower store to another you may want to look around, especially when shopping for wedding decorations on a budget. Shopping around may pay off already in saving a lot of money on the wedding decoration.

In addition there are a few other things you might want to consider when thinking of flowers for your wedding decoration:

1. You may want to decide for flowers that are in season rather than those that are out of season. Those flowers need to be shipped from around the world and you will have to pay for transportation as well.


2. If there is a floral-design school around in your area, you may want to ask some of the students to provide you with the flower arrangements, as an alternative of hiring a florist.


3. You can create your own individual flower arrangement and buy the flowers of one color in bulk from a wholesale florist.


4. Think about mixing attractive and realistic looking silk flowers with your arrangements of fresh flowers. This will help keeping the romantic feeling high while reducing the cost.

Although there are some other things to have a look at when planning your wedding, with just following up these few tips about the wedding flowers you will be already able to have your wedding decorations on a budget.

Bridal Accessories

Executive Summary By Jim J Crow and Bridget Mora

Bridal Fashion and Accessories!

When my fiance and I set the date for our wedding, I started planning and shopping for all my accessories and wedding supplies, right away. There were accessories and reception supplies that would help me to plan the most fantastic wedding and reception party ever, all on my computer. Starting with the beautiful invitations I chose, and finishing with the super wedding favors for our friends and family.

We had no problem choosing the theme we wanted for our wedding and reception, it had to be a beach theme. Not only did I find the perfect hair accessories, but my wedding jewelry too. Great selection of bridal fashion supplies and the low cost really made this shopping worth while. Even though we were getting married on the beach, I insisted on a floor length wedding dress. There were satin summer dresses for my bridesmaids and my flower girl, that had a knee length hemline. I had sailboat place card holders and placed seashells and starfish all around the tables. Our wedding table was beautifully set with beach themed champagne flutes, little beach tea lights and lovely beach themed candles and holders. All the supplies and accessories for our wedding reception was decorated in an ocean side motif, and so was our cake topper. I'm so glad they had all the supplies and bridal accessories we needed to plan the perfect beach wedding and reception. We danced to some really great tunes and enjoyed the fantastic foods that were prepared and just had one heck of a beach party. As soon as we returned from our honeymoon I got out my beautiful beach themed wedding guest book and started writing thank you cards to our friends and family. My beach themed picture album has all the memories within its beautiful covers for me to enjoy anytime I want to look back on our special beach wedding and reception.

Black and White Bridal Accessories

One of the hottest looks for accessories right now is the black and white combination. Black and white bridal accessories are the perfect finishing touch for a bride and her bridesmaids.

Some brides opt for black dresses on their bridesmaids, or even choose a white wedding gown with black embroidered accents. The most stunning type of black and white accessory is pearl bridal jewelry created with a combination of fabulous black pearls mixed with classic white pearls. It is a spectacular twist on the standard all-white pearl bridal jewelry. Strapless gowns look best with a choker or princess length strand, but for a truly dramatic and chic look, wear a longer strand of black and white pearls with a higher neckline, or a double strand with any type of wedding gown.

For bridesmaids, a great idea would be a pair of earrings that combines black and white pearls. If budget is a concern, you can achieve a fantastic effect using affordable Swarovksi pearls to handcraft your black and white bridesmaid jewelry sets. Sashes and waist accents are other wonderful places to include black and white. For a winter wedding, it would be gorgeous to add a black and white tartan sash to the waist of a rich red bridesmaid dress. Speaking of brooches, another au courant black and white detail is to create a fabric bow in black and white to be worn at the waistline of a gown. Other ideas could include a black evening bag with white beading or a white shawl with black embroidery.

Sprinkling touches of black and white throughout your wedding is a terrific way to create a bold statement. Black and white accents are a perfect way to give your wedding a modern style, while still maintaining a timeless elegance.

Informal Bridal Dresses

Informal wedding gowns are gowns that have little or no train at all. These gowns can also be decorated or made using plain material. Same as in purchasing a traditional bridal dress, looking for informal gowns can take just as much effort. Research

When to start buying

As with any wedding preparation detail, buying a gown-whether it is a traditional or informal one-means that you should set aside a sufficient amount of time. Picking a gown takes plenty of work so you need days and days allotted for selection, fitting, production and alteration. Some bridal consultants say that setting aside three to six months in taking care of the details of your wedding gown would be good idea.

The purchase of these gowns should also be accompanied by a sales contract. When purchasing a gown, you should ask for a receipt.

Taking care of all these details will help you buy that perfect gown for your most special day.
