The wonder of Weddingstar

If you’re looking for all those finishing touches for your wedding then you really ought to check out Weddingstar. They have a seemingly endless amount of ideas, accessories and decorations. There are a lot of the more traditional offerings on there but they also have loads of bang up-to-date items. And personalisation is an option on so many of their items which means it’s much easier for you to make your wedding your own.

I can’t possibly feature everything this company has to offer so I’m instead going to show you some of my favourites!

Lovebirds

And these cute lovebird-inspired products are definitely favourites:

Weddingstar tend to have all bases covered which you can probably see from the fact you can even get personalised water bottle labels!

Simply sweet

If you’re after a simply sweet affair then this silhouetted bubble-blowing couple may be just the thing:

And on the subject of sweet things they even sell personalised popcorn boxes and bubblegum machine favours!

And they’ll help you decorate your sweet station too with miniature blackboard signs and custom stickers:

Sweet station

I so want to go to a wedding with a sweet station! I never really treat myself to pick ‘n’ mix any more, cos let’s face it the prices are extortionate! But if the bride and groom were paying… ; )

Fab favours

Weddingstar’s favour supplies are fab too: buckets, bags, tins… just fill with what you fancy. And there’s a load of great designs and colours for personalised chocolate bars too:

Treats for the table

They even supply table wares. If you’re putting on the food yourself then how about a super-simple and yummy fondue (I make it with Dairy Milk, cream and syrup) served in a heart shaped set and a selection of fruit, marshmallows and mini doughnuts presented on heart shaped plates:

Or canapés served in these very wedding-appropriate dishes:

And finally here are some quirky cake toppers for you:

It states on Weddingstar’s site that they have 2895+ wedding accessories and that is exactly why I can’t feature them all! Hope I’ve given you an idea of the great things you’ll find over there though!

I must just mention that Weddingstar are an international company, however they will deliver worldwide. Just make sure you bear in mind any custom charges that may apply on your goodies entering the UK. Other than that there’s nothing stopping you from shopping to your heart’s content in this store!

So go spend!

Photo opportunities

Photographs are awesome! Personally, I think cameras are the best things ever to have been invented. Their ability to capture a moment and allow you to look at it for years to come is, if you think about it, simply amazing.

If you’re looking for a way to personalise your wedding, photographs are a great, simple and cheap way to do it. Your wedding day is just one day of your life, including photos can give guests an insight into your past, your story and how you came to be sharing your life with your partner.

Snapshot suggestions

There are a number of ways you could incorporate photographs into your big day:

  1. Have a mini photo shoot to include on your wedding invitation. An easy way to do this is to use the old style photo booths (if you can find one). The ones that allow you to take 4 different photos (so you could have the one passport photo taken and invite all your friends in and pull silly faces for the final 3). A strip of these down the side of your invite would look great! You could even hold up cards per photo such as ‘Come’ ‘to’ ‘our’ ‘wedding’. Whilst pulling silly faces of course.
  2. Buy a miniature frame broach to attach to your bridal bouquet. I think this is a nice way to include a photo of a loved one that has passed away. Examples can be found here.
  3. String up photos of you and your partner’s romance around your venue with some mini pegs and twine.
  4. Next to the cake, display photos of you and your partner’s parents (provided they’re still married) cutting their cake on their wedding day.
  5. If having a garden party tack a myriad of frames to a tree featuring photos of previous family weddings. Or hang photos from a plant or from tree branches.
  6. Name tables after key events in you and your partner’s romance. Perhaps different holidays you’ve been on or events you’ve been to see. With each table name display a photo of you and your partner on that holiday or at that event.
  7. Have a big, pretty portrait printed out of you and your partner surrounded by a large, white border. This white border can then act as ‘guestbook’ and when full of messages you have something that can be framed and displayed at home: a lovely reminder of the day.
  8. If you, or somebody you know, is confident with a computer why not make up a photo montage to project on a wall and play throughout your reception. This could start off with photos of the bride and groom as children (particularly good if you can find similar shots such as both of you on a bike or your first time swimming). Then move on to when you first met, the years you’ve spent together and finally a photo of you after your engagement. Set it all to a song that means something to the two of you and you’ve got a nice surprise for your guests to enjoy.
