When my best friend informed me of a online shopping store for wedding accessories and supplies that could save us a little on the wedding expenses, I thought I’d give it a try. It’s true, reasonable prices and many accessories to choose from starting with wedding invitations right down to wedding favor gifts. Along with all the super wedding accessories they also carry groomsmen gifts and bridesmaids gifts. Naturally, after getting a look at their inventory, I made the decision to order all my needed wedding supplies and decorations at their online store.
Since we had planned our wedding date to be in December, I wanted to have a winter wonderland wedding and reception and this was the perfect place to get what I needed for it. I ordered very decorative winter wedding bulletins to send out as invitations. I lucked out when looking for my flower basket and ring pillow because I found a five piece wedding set that had both, plus a guestbook and pen set, and a nice leg garter to go along with it. Not only did each piece match, but the price was more than reasonable. I read about how now that a lot of churches don’t allow petals to be thrown at the bride and groom at the ceremony, that many couples are having the guests blow bubbles instead. This online shopping site I’m on has little bottled bubbles for just that purpose, with little bubble cards for hang tags, which I placed an order for.
You’d be surprised at the marvelous accessories I bought from there. I was able to find gifts for not only my bridesmaids, flower girl and ring boy, but for everyone in our wedding party. My fiance found quite a few gift ideas for best groomsmen gifts.
He got each of them a mug as their groomsman favors, with the word groomsman printed on it. Now we had a groomsman gift, gifts for my bridesmaids and everyone that was in our ceremony, so now, I needed to concentrate on what to buy for our guests. There were so many wonderful gift ideas for a winter wedding to give to our guests. The wedding favors I chose were glass winter votive candles with a wintery frosted look for everyone attending the reception. Each candle had nice little silver snowflakes around it. The votive candles came in adorable little wedding favor boxes with a lovely silver thank you tag attached.
I also bought place card holders that look like snowy tree ornaments that can be used as an extra little favor for our guests. They had it all, winter themed champagne glasses and serving set and a funny winter wedding cake topper too. Since the cake topper I chose was one with the bride and groom on skis, I decided to make it look authentic by having the baker design the top layer of our cake as a mountain of snow. I had many pictures of our wedding cake taken for my winter themed wedding picture album, it was so adorable. After we cut the cake and had our toast done by my super brother in law, it was time for our bride and groom dance. With all eyes on us as we danced, I felt as magical as a princess in a fairy tale.
This reception was perfect, from the beginning to the end and all of our guests truly seemed to be enjoying themselves. The men in our wedding party really liked the wedding groomsmen gifts we had for them and my bridesmaids thanked me for theirs too. Some of our friends and family expressed how much they really liked the thank you gifts they received and told us what a spectacular wedding and reception we had.
