Wedding Decorations Inspired by Bridal Gowns






Wedding Decorations Inspired by Bridal Gowns

The bridal gown is one of the favorite parts of the wedding for most brides. If you ask brides what they loved most about their weddings (other than the groom!), most will say their wedding dresses and their bridal jewelry sets. Since it is such a special part of the wedding day, it can be really fun to design some wedding decorations that are inspired by the details on your bridal gown. These are some suggestions to get you started.
Think about your wedding gown for a moment (or longer if you prefer; maybe you even have a picture of your dress as the screensaver on your computer at work, you wouldn't be the first!). What is it that drew you to that particular bridal gown? Is it exquisite handbeading on the bodice? Perhaps a delicate piece of lace trim? Or maybe your gown is created from a unique fabric like a silk pique or a lovely eyelet. Whatever your very favorite element is, this can be the jumping off point that you use for your wedding decorations.

Elegant Wedding Favours is the Key

Elegant silver favours really set the theme for the whole day and so choosing the right ones is paramount. Truly elegant wedding favours are different yet classic and modern yet traditional. For example silver favours give wedding a sense of opulence and class. By the same token, monogram favours [that have the initials of the bride and groom on them] also represent exquisite taste. So too do plain, simple bath and soap favours.
As stated previously, silver favours give the occasion a sense of class and generosity. Whereas gold wedding favours can look a little over-the top, silver has a regal yet understated feel. You can choose silver favours that are plated [very luxurious] and these come in a variety of forms such as silver-plated salt and pepper shakers, letter openers, corkscrews, heart-shaped measuring spoons, bottle stopper and corkscrew sets and place card holders.
However, silver plated favours may not be for you, but to ensure you offer your guests elegant wedding favours, why not stick to the silver theme and go for silver-coloured favour boxes filled with silver dragees? The Silver Corrugated Butterfly Boxes look fantastic on beautifully set out wedding reception tables.

A great wedding favor can be further highlighted by the packaging used for presentation. Without great packaging a great favor can loose some of its luster. A great bath and relaxation set can be dramatically presented in a knothole gift bag, which is very appropriate for this type of favor. And organza bags are great for small trinkets and jewelry or even soap, they add an elegant touch to whatever gift or favor is presented in these delicate little bags.
There are some wedding favor packages that do double duty. For example there is a chair place card holder and favor box, or the bride and groom place card holder and favor box and for the really fashion conscious there is the stylish purse and shoe place card holder and favor box. For an added touch of class you can also go with the silver monogrammed chair and favor box, adorned with a heart and ribbon.
Favor boxes come in all sizes, shapes and colors. You can go with a traditional simple square box, but even this has a selection of colors and adornments to choose from; they come in Tiffany Blue, textured Ivory, Chocolate Brown, and many other colors, and are further adorned with a ribbon tied in a bow. There are also miniature boxes and take out style boxes. You can get heart shaped boxes that are embossed or adorned with spring time flowers.
