I started looking for all the accessories and supplies I needed for our wedding day, just as soon as we set the date. Since I love to shop online, I decided that was as good a place to start as any. There were accessories and reception supplies that would help me to plan the most fantastic wedding and reception party ever, all on my computer. From invitations to fantastic wedding favors gifts for our guests, they had it all.
We decided that a lovely theme wedding would be what we would like, and the theme we chose was a beach theme. Our friends and us have spent many days on the beach, since we were kids, growing up here and it seemed like the perfect place for our wedding.
I ordered beach invitations right away so they would be on their way to our friends and family, first thing. There were no no’s in the RSVP’S, and they all seemed to be really looking forward to our wedding day. Now, since the invitations were taken care of, I could concentrate on finding the bridal accessories I want for my wedding. Even though I shop online all the time, I never expected to find such a big selection of brides accessories. I ordered the most beautiful tiara and hair comb from there. Not only did I find the perfect hair accessories, but my wedding jewelry too. My wedding dress and the lovely necklace and earring set I ordered for my wedding day looked fantastic together. The pearls and crystals on the necklace set really added to the elegance of my wedding dress.
There was so much in the way of a bridal fashion jewelry that was absolutely exquisite, and the best part was, it wasn’t all that expensive. There were even a lot of honeymoon accessories available that I ordered. Even though we were getting married on the beach, I insisted on a floor length wedding dress. My bridesmaids and flower girl wore knee length satin dresses with spaghetti straps to help keep them cool and comfortable. They all looked so lovely in their wedding attire.
Our reception tables were all set up on the beach with tiki torches scattered all around and lights strung up by the make shift dance floor we had. The reception tables had been decorated in an oceanside motif and the little sailboat place card holders was a great addition. The wedding favors I chose were lovely photo frames with a beach design, because I thought they were so pretty and I know that’s something that they can always use. Everyone seemed to like the gifts they received.
On the bride and groom table were our toasting flutes, lovely candles in their beach theme holders and lots of lovely tealights. Our wedding cake topper was especially designed for a beach wedding just as all our other accessories for our reception. We had a cake topper of a young couple holding each other as they walked along the beach. Thanks to all the supplies and bridal accessories I had to choose from, our wedding and reception was everything I had hoped it would be. For those that weren’t into seafood, we made sure we had plenty of steaks and chicken for them. We danced to some really great tunes and enjoyed the fantastic foods that were prepared and just had one heck of a beach party. If it wasn’t for going on our honeymoon, I never would have left our terrific beach party.
After we returned from our honeymoon, I had to get down to writing all the thank you notes to our guests. My beach themed picture album has all the memories within its beautiful covers for me to enjoy anytime I want to look back on our special beach wedding and reception.
