15. Place cards with 4 or 5 wedding tradition on each table. I hope it will be interesting and entertaining for our quests to read and be reminded of the true symbolism of the evenings events. Elizabeth Tiseo 16. We are having a special wedding quilt that will be signed on one side by all of our friends during cocktail hour. Every time we sleep with it we will remember our beautiful wedding
. We are having the set complete with the signing of a huge umbrella, a basketball, and a white ironing board cover (that will be strapped to a brand new white ironing board.) People are requested to bring along a small Christmas ornament (1/per family) from their personal collections. The purpose of this is to remember all of our friends who came to our wedding. We will hang up all the little ornaments they gave to us on our tree at Christmas. We are having a special
calendar made with 12 pictures taken during barbeques, parties with our friends. During the cocktail hour they will have an opportunity to fill in their individual birthdays on the proper dates of the calendar. We are doing this so that as a couple we can send birthday cards during the year to our friends signed with love from Mr. and Mrs. Reid. 17. Our photographer suggested this having seen it at
another wedding. Our guest book is an engravable tray. We ordered an engraving tool and will be having guest engrave their name on the tray. This way we will have a tray to display in our home, rather than a book that most people won't see again. Beth
18. This wasn't my initial idea, but I would encourage everyone to think about doing this. The Bride who is getting
married before me, at the same church, called the wedding coordinator and got my telephone number. She called me and asked if I would be interested in going half and half on the church decorations. This, of course, was a blessing to me since I am paying for the wedding myself. We got together, our color schemes were perfect, and we got everything we wanted for half the price. We got 2 floral arrangements for the alter, 2 swags for the candelabras in
the front, bows for all the candles down the aisle, and an aisle runner. All the flowers are silk, but we each only spent $45. This is an awesome idea. I hope many Bride's in the future take advantage of this. Danyell 19. Whenever we would go to a wedding we always are wondering who the people in the bridal party are and what is their relation to the bride and groom. So at our wedding,
in the program we listed each person in our wedding party with a little paragraph on how we know this person and a little fun tidbit and or why they are special to us. It was nice for them to read and gave our guests a special insight of our friends and family and didn't leave them guessing who was who!
20. I wanted a good picture of my dad walking me down the
isle. Instead a picture of our "backs", we took a few steps, stopped, turned around and the photographer got a great picture of our faces. It's the most cherished picture of me and my dad.
