This is super cute and easy. It also doubles as a favor while adding loads of personality to any table setting. All you really need are a few things and less than 5 minutes.
Materials:
- Clear glass Christmas ornament
- Wine bottle cork
- Mason jar lid
- Moss
- Sticks
- Silk flower
- Ribbon/String
- Place card
2. Personalized Coasters
This isn't as DIY as a tool (does that make sense?), but it does class up the wedding and vinyl stickers make everything feel 100% custom. You can really customize anything from coasters to confetti tubes, you name it. It's a nice touch and anyone could do it. Your three year old little cousin could have the job, really! You'll just need to find the perfect vendor to make vinyl stickers of whatever monogram you're working with. Other than that you can find any cheap coasters that go with your color palette. The stickers will class them up, trust me!
Materials:
- Coasters
- Custom Vinyl stickers
3. Bridesmaid Gift Boxes
This isn't quite a decoration, but it's necessary for every bride and her girls. It's a little thank you box that is also cute and fun to make. Every bride has their style, but here are two different types of boxes. They're essentially the same but different themes. (left box, right box) Target, Ikea, and all those stores have super cute boxes that could fit your individual style. You can either make all of the boxes the same or make them specific to the bridesmaid's taste. This is a fun one, because it's for your girls. You get to put little trinkets in the box that you KNOW they'd like.
Materials:
- Box/Crate
- Confetti
- Name card (with a little thank you note inside)
- Goodies (Jewelry box, nail polish, bath salts, face mist, candle, champagne, etc)
4. String Heart
This would be even better on a box instead of a board. Hear me out... you can have a wood box at a table (near the newly weds/at the entrance) where people are able to put their wishes, tips, or predictions in through a little slit. Then, you basically keep the box and open it on your first year anniversary. It looks really cute, is creative, and super easy to do.
Materials:
- Wood box
- String
- Box of nails
- Spray paint
- White paper (to draw the heart)
- Hammer
5. Flowers + Sand Centerpieces
These are super simple, cheap, and cute. A lot of brides spend insane amounts on big pieces when a lot of the time it's the more simple staple pieces that look better (to me, at least). These are easily dressed up with a little of ribbon or look great as is. You can use vases, glasses, etc. You can surround the flower pieces with candles or have them sit on glitter (as displayed in the images).
Materials:
- Clear vases/glass
- Silk flowers of your choice
- Sand (any color you prefer)
6. Floral Parasol
Decorations aren't reserved to the ceremony only. Other than your bridesmaids, you want your little flower girl to match you or the theme in some way. This is a super cute way to incorporate your flowers and colors to her little outfit. Besides, there's a 100% chance she's going to love it. That means you might NOT get to keep it for memories sake, but you'll definitely love the aesthetics of it. You really just need a simple white parasol and silk flowers that are similar to your bouquet or follow the color palette, at least.
Materials:
- Parasol
- Silk flowers
- Glue gun
- Gardening shears
7. Floral Balloon
This HAS to be my favorite. I just had to leave it for the end. Not only is this a cute and great wedding decoration... it works for other occasions (i.e. birthdays, romantic dinners, anniversary, proposals, parties, etc). It gives an otherwise plane balloon some personality. Besides, it's just really really PRETTY. Can you imagine these as a back drop behind the newly weds or arranged in a circle for a proposal? So many options and so so cute!
Materials:
- Silk flowers
- Greens
- Giant Balloon
- Floral tape
- Scissors
- Tape
- Twine
- Ribbon/string/etc
