I looked at a lot of wedding options before I decided I wanted to have a themed wedding and reception. Now the decision was which theme to use. It sounded like a lot of fun to have a country western themed wedding. I pictured a reception party barn dance for our wedding day. We were having our wedding during the hot summer months, so a beach themed wedding sounded pretty great. We could have a great time, swimming, partying on shore and watching a gorgeous sunset in the background. It was a never ending list of possibilities for themed weddings and receptions. And they had every accessory online from decorations to a wedding cake server to match every theme. All the themed suggestions were quite unique, but it was the fairytale theme that I liked the best.
Now it was time to look for the fairytale themed accessories and supplies I needed for the theme I chose. First I ordered the lovely wedding invitations for our wedding guests. After that I went on to the wedding décor and the other accessories I would need. I wanted a wedding fit for Cinderella. The decorations for the church were the first thing I wanted to get. Tulle swags were draped from each row of pews with a bow of satin pinned on each end. Our unity candle had tapered candles in storybook holders on each side of our storybook unity candle, and several flowers in vases placed around the altar.
I also had a unique fairytale wedding guestbook for everyone to sign when they entered the church. This was the most beautiful storybook wedding ceremony I could have ever wished for. Our little ring boy and flower girl were adorable and did such a super job at the ceremony. We took a carriage ride to the reception, just like Cinderella and her Prince left their ceremony.
With flowers everywhere and crystal and silver shining on the tables the entire reception hall was so elegant. All the tables had crystal champagne flutes with storybook designed stems. The place card holders on the guests tables were adorable little castles. I filled adorable carriage designed favor boxes with little candies for each place setting at the reception.
Despite the beauty of our reception tables, I think the bride and groom table was definitely the center of attention. It gave the appearance of royalty to the reception. At the end of our wedding table, was the wedding cake table, with our beautiful five tier cake and gorgeous storybook topper. They have everything where I bought our reception supplies, even the perfect wedding cake topper in a storybook theme for our gorgeous cake. There was even a storybook wedding knife with lovely designs on the handle. I really liked the wedding knife and server, so now I wanted to make everything else perfect! Our wedding cake and topper were complimented by the lovely knife set next to it.
As soon as the bridal toast and the best man’s speech was over, my husband and I had our first dance as husband and wife. We chose our favorite song, “I Swear” by all for one, as our first bride and groom dance. Once we were done with our wedding dance, the other couples joined us on the dance floor. I’m glad I bought the gorgeous fairytale photo album to store my wedding pictures in, because I’m going to have quite a few of them to treasure. Many of our friends and family commented on what lovely storybook favors we had given them as gifts.
With the ceremony and reception party turning out as great as it did, I know you can have your favorite fairytale come true.
