August 2012 Weddings

Etsy virgin no more!

We just bought a train case to use as our card box from Etsy.

We also bought a few glass bottles for our centerpieces from Home Goods.

What are you buying/bringing to decorate your venue? I was just wondering what all I should have there.

  - Signs to point people around the property
  - Centerpiece bottles for the flowers
  - Card box
  - Time capsule guest "book"
  - Sweets table containers (trays, dishes, etc.)
 
What else comes to mind?

  • Oh I would love to know more about your time capsule guest book! 

    I'm bringing the same things as you. In addition, Mr. & Mrs. signs for the back of our chairs, cake stand (tree stump), photobooth props, fabric bunting, favors/escort cards, programs. That's all I can think of right now!

    Ah yes! I want Mr./Mrs. signs as well. Plus favor bags, escort cards, programs... We are still brainstorming out the specifics of the time capsule guest book. I've seen so many cool ideas!
  • We have paper lanterns in two colors (green and yellow,) milk bottle glass vases and dried rose petals for the centerpieces, a birdcage for cards, a tree slice for the cake, a wishing card guestbook, Mr & Mrs sign for our table, table numbers, strings of lights, a homemade felt flag banner- I think that's about it!

  • I have to keep checking this thread because I am still trying to figure out all of my decorations.  I know what we are doing for certerpieces, but haven't really found a card box design that I like (we aren't having a wedding cake so I don't really want to do the wedding cake shaped one).  I am planning on getting some frames and getting some signs printed at Staples for people that say stuff like "cards here"  "guestbook"  stuff like that.  I am having people sign a mat that will go around a picture of us for the guestbook.
