I wanted to have a wedding that was not only full of great memories for me, but for our friends and family as well. The presents and favors I got everyone were things that could be treasured for a lifetime. The gifts I bought were meant to be reminders of what an outstanding wedding day and night we had together. I began by selecting keepsake gifts and moved on to things like a cheap keepsake gift. On the web, there are a ton of ideas and options for wedding and reception accessories and supplies. Whatever I needed for my reception, I found it there.
I had a florist come in and make up darling arrangements to put in the middle of each reception table, and alongside them were little ceramic pots with lace that held candles inside. I found those online along with the place card holders that were really exceptional too.
I elected to get place card holders with lovely beads on them that doubled as picture frames for everyone to take with them. As far as gifts for our guests went, I made sure I gave them all practical favors that would also make great wedding keepsake boxes. Giving out favors that have no practical purpose always struck me as a useless thing to do. Otherwise, the recipient of the gift will most likely forget about it shortly after they get it. I did my best to make sure that the gifts handed out to our relatives and other loved ones were going to be remembered. So I chose bistro coffee mugs for each of our friends and family’s gift. They attractive and you can get good use out of them, too. I didn’t even have to worry about repackaging them because the containers they came in were so classy-looking already; all I did was put a decorative hang tag on every one of them.
Reception supplies and accessories were easy to find on the world wide web. The cake topper we got ‘took the cake,’ so to speak. I opted to pick out one that would be significant to my groom and I.
When we met for the first time, it was at a friends house and we were all engaged in a little friendly game of football on the back lawn. So our first meeting was in the middle of a memorable tackle attempt on his part and I thought the topper I found with the bride and groom playing football was an excellent choice. This will be a cake topper that will be a keepsake for two reasons, one, the day we met and two, the day we married. [spin]I was really surprised that I had found such a novel wedding cake topper as this one was, and not only that, I also found gorgeous wedding
