Wedding Showers

Traditional elements are usually present at most Wedding showers including an oversized, decorated seat for the bride-to-be to sit in while she opens her gifts. An umbrella is usually displayed or rented as a decoration. A hat is created for the bride from all the bows on her shower presents.

A wedding shower can be held anywhere including a backyard barbecue, a beach party, a formal restaurant meal or a country club. If you have the party at a yard or beach, you can invite lots of people and serve hot dishes, heroes, beer and wine. This informal event may appeal to a casual bride looking for a good time.

A restaurant offers the service and ambiance a formal bride prefers. Have several menu options to appeal to all palates. Give out elegant favors for the shower guests, such as silver plated wine stoppers.

Wherever the wedding shower is held, play games to get everyone talking. A variation of Pin the Tail on the Donkey is Pin the Boutonniere on the Groom. Instead of a donkey and pins, use a picture of the groom and flower stickers. Have a wishing well for small, thoughtful gifts to the bride for her new home such as sponges, detergent, mops and towels. Have the bride-to-be register with at least one retail store so guests can choose appropriate wedding shower ideas for presents.

Put out place cards and give out favors for a professional feeling at the wedding shower. Novelty light up engagement rings are ideal favors at a wedding shower. Use creative wedding shower ideas to show your love and support for the bride and her husband-to-be.

Candle Wedding Favours

It can cost a lot of money to decorate your wedding reception tables! By the time you have rented the venue, the exquisite table linens, created a floral arrangement for each table, and chosen your wedding china, stemware and crystal – there is little left over to really inject a bit of personality – both in terms of space on the table and money left over in your wedding budget.

Many brides are wising up to the fact that table candleholders can nicely double as candle wedding favors that guests can take home. To do this, you need to choose the smaller variety of candleholders and then personalize each one with a wedding sticker or favor tag that holds your wedding information, poem or thank you statement. What a perfect way to add a little personality to the tables at your wedding reception.

Or you can give a personalized candle wedding favour that is not used on the reception tables. These types can also be personalized and come in all types of fun shapes, themes and colors. Some available today include felt daisies, stunning orchids, wooden deck chairs, love set glass, cute frogs, hugs and kisses, snowflakes, sea animals, frosted glass flowers and miniature Asian lanterns. Of course, many colors are also available so that you can match your candle wedding favours to your wedding colours or chosen wedding theme.

Of course, you probably already know that selecting favours for your wedding guests is important. Your wedding guests will go away with this little gift and it may be the lasting impression they have of your special day. The great thing about candle favors is that guests can use them over and over again long after your wedding day has ended.

Do take care to choose open flame candles only when they are appropriate – and not when there are many children at the wedding reception. For situations like this, use table floral arrangements or battery operated flickering “flameless” candles.

Personalized wedding candle favors can be a fun and memorable gift to leave for each wedding guest – a little token of your appreciation and an inexpensive way of saying thank you for sharing your special day. When budget is tight, consider making your candle wedding favors do double duty as table accessories on your reception tables.
