I would like it to be more elegant than cute (there will be no Santa at the reception ) I am looking for unique ideas, decorating, entertaining, etc. that will make our wedding memorable. I have found the internet not so helpful and all of the bride magazines out are for Summer/Fall. Any ideas?

I was also thinking about using White tablecloths and then draping a piece of red tulle over the tables. And of course, instead of bubbles or birdseed, I'm going to have my guests throw red rose petals when we leave.

We purchased pine bough garland and lots of Christmas bulbs after Christmas last year at discounted prices and we are using it to form centerpieces that will be similar to wreaths and sit on a 14" charger plate with candle holders in the center. We are doing a lot of red and silver as I didn't want to be too Christmas with just red and green.

I have found the internet not so helpful and all of the bride magazines out are for Summer/Fall. Any ideas? how about using glistening snow flakes hanging from the ceiling, different size trees decorated with only white lights in the first of the altar, ice sculptures, ice blue, silver and white are great colors, or more tradition deep emerald green and dark burgundy red are also great. If you go red/green, poinsettas entertwined with tulle is beautiful. Hope this helps.

Her guest favors where these nice silver ornaments and she decorated the tree with the ornaments. It was a really nice touch to the reception area. She also used a lot of the Christmas greens on the guest tables and head table...it made the room smell GREAT!!! While all these things were Christmas themed it turned out to be very elegant. Hope that's helpful!

Aaaaaaanyway, some ideas = * lots and lots of candles during the ceremony (low lighting) * burgundy and silver as a color option * for the cake - each layer is an individual wrapped package or instead of layering the cake have each layer go across the table from smallest to largest "present * as the bride i thought about wearing a red velvet cape i'm sure it'll be beautiful marlette Back to top tabby Joined: 26 Mar 2007 Posts: 20 Posted: Mon Mar 26, 2007 8:48 pm    Post subject: what about working around the theme "winter wonderland" ? mae use of blues and silver. very elegant colors ================= www.kardella.com Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         Wedding Planning - Party Forum - Learn to Decorate with Tulle & More Forum Index -> Planning a Wedding All times are GMT - 6 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Printed Ribbon----------------Printed Ribbon Printed Napkins----------------Printed Napkins Weddings----------------Planning a WeddingBridal ShowersEngagement PartiesPlanning a HoneymoonHow to Decorate with Tulle Fabric Birthdays----------------Birthday Parties (all ages)Sweet 16'sSweet 15's Baby Showers----------------Planning a Baby Shower Religious Celebrations----------------Bar and Bat MitzvahsCommunions Anniversary Parties----------------Planning and Hosting an Anniversary Party25th Anniversary50th Anniversary  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum
