Wedding favor love
I think Valentine’s day is the best day for a wedding. We both agreed that Valentines day would be our wedding day. As soon as we had the church and reception locations taken care of, I went looking for the finest ’wedding favor love,’ as it was called. I had no problem finding the finest invitations for our wedding and reception. They were such pretty invitations with little silver hearts linked together on the front. I’m glad I listened to my mom and bought extra wedding invitations, because while writing them out I made a few mistakes.
With the wedding invitations out of the way, I knew it was time to start on the wedding and reception supplies. I asked my mom to come along on my venture to the bridal shop for my dress and shoes. She was a big help, once she stopped crying at every gown I walked out in. I finally found the wedding gown I was meant to wear and it only took seven or eight shops and 25 or maybe, 30 dress styles to try on. It only took the groom to be and his groomsmen one stop to find their tuxes. I was praying that he wouldn’t give the appearance of a pall bearer standing at the altar, because he picked the first suit he tried on. I shouldn’t have been worried, he looked absolutely perfect standing at the altar.
After making sure the wedding party’s needs were handled, I started to work on decorations for the church ceremony. I hung big red velvet bows at the end of the pews and made sure there were plenty of red roses arranged around the room and at the altar. The altar was covered in candle light and I found the most beautiful themed unity candle for our ceremony. The church allowed me to have red and pink rose petals tossed down the aisle by our flower girl. There’s a lot of churches that frown on that tradition, but luckily ours isn’t one of them. It was the perfect wedding ceremony and our church décor was absolutely lovely.
Even though I did quite a bit of shopping for our wedding ceremony, there was even more to do for our reception. Our supplies for the reception started with love theme decorations with a love theme and ended with love themed favors. I had astonishing red roses all around the room and hearts hanging from the ceiling. We had a heart shaped arch made of red and white balloons placed on the dance floor where the band was playing.
The centerpieces we had made up for the reception tables had bouquets of flowers with a little cupid sticking out of each one. The little white pearls on the place card holders really added to the love décor of the tables. There were some fantastic favors boxes to choose from for the love favors we bought for our friends and family. Our guests complimented us on our reception table décor and especially the little favor boxes. The bridal table was decorated pretty elaborately too. There were crystal heart champagne flutes for our wedding toast, and an absolutely gorgeous love themed cake serving set. But I think our three tiered wedding cake outshined everything on our table. For our cake topper I decided on these adorable little love birds. Our wedding table was exquisitely decorated, from the gorgeous crystal to our magnificent wedding cake.
Shopping online for all the accessories and supplies made this wedding the perfection of glamour and elegance.
I got to the thank you notes for our guests as soon as we got back from our fabulous honeymoon. I also received a few thank you’s from our friends and family telling us how much they enjoyed the wedding and reception and how much they liked their little love party favors. That was such a thoughtful thing to do.
