As soon as we set our wedding date, I got busy with my planning and shopping for everything I needed. I’m a dedicated online shopper and so, of course, that’s the first place I went to find what I needed. I’m glad I did too, with all they had to offer there was no problem finding everything I needed to plan the perfect wedding and reception. From invitations to fantastic wedding favors gifts for our guests, they had it all.
We had no problem choosing the theme we wanted for our wedding and reception, it had to be a beach theme. We’ve always lived near the water, even as kids and it has been a favorite place of ours and our friends for years.
I ordered beach invitations right away so they would be on their way to our friends and family, first thing. All the guests we invited said they would be there and that they can hardly wait to watch us walk down the aisle. My wedding accessories were the next thing on my list that I would need. Shopping online has almost become a hobby for me, but even I couldn’t believe what a wonderful selection they had to offer. The first thing ordered was the exquisite hair comb and tiara to wear on my wedding day. The wedding jewelry I found was just as gorgeous as the hair accessories I chose. My floor length wedding dress and the lovely necklace and earring set I ordered for my wedding day looked fantastic together. All my bridesmaids wore short summer dresses as did my flower girl, but I opted for a long gown with lightweight material. The pearls and crystals on the necklace set really added to the elegance of my wedding dress.
They really had a lot of super bridal accessories that fit right in with the bridal fashion of today and with all the discount and wholesale deals I found we did pretty good about sticking to our wedding budget. I got my wedding and bridal hair accessories and everything else I needed for our ceremony at some very remarkable prices. There was also quite a bit of reception decor and supplies that I found reasonably priced too, that went so well with our beach motif. I only had a few other things to buy from the stores, most of what I bought was online.
There were tiki torches and those little white christmas lights everywhere and a dance floor my fiance had fixed there. On the reception tables there were seashells and starfish scattered about and place card holders that were adorable little sailboats. I didn’t want to give our guests some useless wedding favor that would be stuck in a drawer and forgotten, so we gave them beach themed picture frames as thank you gifts. I think the picture frames I chose were to their liking.
Our wedding table was beautifully set with beach themed champagne flutes, little beach tealights and lovely beach themed candles and holders. Our wedding cake topper was especially designed for a beach wedding just as all our other accessories for our reception. Our topper was a bride and groom taking a walk along the beach. I’m so glad they had all the supplies and bridal accessories we needed to plan the perfect beach wedding and reception. For those that weren’t into seafood, we made sure we had plenty of steaks and chicken for them. Everyone danced, ate and just had a fantastic time. I kinda hated to leave the party for our honeymoon, everyone was having such a great time.
After we returned from our honeymoon, I had to get down to writing all the thank you notes to our guests. Whenever I want to remember my wedding day, I’ll take out my beach themed photo album and look at all the pictures we had taken.
