5 Accessorising Tips to Add Sparkle to Your Big Day

A guest post by online wedding stationers Paper Themes.

When it comes to planning a wedding, every bride is looking for little ways to add the finishing touches and ensure that their big day lives long in the memories of their guests.  Yet with so many brides going the extra mile, it can be hard to come up with fresh ideas that guests haven’t seen a hundred times before.  Below is a selection of less common wedding accessories that you may wish to consider including as part of your wedding day.

Breath Taking Bunting

Bunting is a classic decoration that has been used for decades at a variety of celebrations.  So, you are probably wondering why we have included it as part of this list.  Well, it is now possible to buy personalised bunting that includes the name of the bride and groom.  Just in case your guests forget whose big day they are attending!  It is great option for any wedding setting and an especially welcome addition if you are holding the celebrations in an outdoor marquee; helping to create the wedding day vibe. 

Personalised Labels

Our next suggestion also goes down the personalised route; this time in the form of labels.  Personalised wedding labels can be used in a variety of ways to provide a complete look and unique feel throughout the event, including:

Personalised labels certainly add a touch of intimacy to invites and thank you cards and make a great way of stylising the more remote areas of the venue, without spending a fortune in doing so.

Wine Bottle Labels

More labels?  Yes, more labels.  Ordering some personalised wine bottle labels is another great way of adding some intimacy.  You can choose your own wording to be added, along with the initials of the bride and groom and also the date of the ceremony.  And not to forget the all-important information; what kind of wine your guests will actually be toasting you with and enjoying with their meal!  With these personalised wine bottle labels available in a variety of shades and styles, you can be sure to find a design that matches your wedding’s theme or colour scheme. 

Paper Craft Wedding Favours

Wedding favours are a time honoured tradition, which have been around for centuries; providing the happy couple with a way of thinking their guests for attending.  However, if you are looking for something a little more exciting than the conventional pails, boxes and organza bags that are typically used; there is a growing trend for paper craft wedding favours. 

These still provide the space to hold your chosen favours, whilst adding a little detail to the table dressing.   Also, the fact that paper craft wedding favours come as flat sheets, means that you can add a little bit of love as you and your fiancé assemble them. 

Post Boxes

Our final suggestion, which is again a table decoration, comes in the form of post boxes.  Although perhaps not quite as unusual as some of our previous offerings, post boxes are certainly the most practical on our list.  Instead of having to carry their wedding cards around with them all evening, or leave them on a table and worry if they are safe; guests are able to place them in the post boxes and enjoy the celebrations.  The bride and groom also benefit from the fact that they don’t have the hassle of carrying around cards that, in the absence of post boxes, are likely to be given to them at regular intervals throughout the day and evening.
