Do It Yourself Wedding Decorations
1. If you have an outdoor wedding, you don’t have to put up a fancy shamiana and décor. Get in touch with an NGO nearby and ask the school kids to create crepe paper flowers which you can place across the reception scene amidst beautiful white chairs.
2. For a very colorful yet quirky touch to the wedding reception tables, grab a couple of wine glasses and flowers along with tea candles. If it is a day time affair, you wouldn’t need to burn the candles, but for the night, you could place the candles on the base of the wine glasses. Turn the glasses upside down and in the mouth of the glasses place the flowers or the candles – depends on the time of the reception.

5. The walk down the aisle is the most important one for the bride, which is why we would want to make it memorable for her. The family members of the bride can write motivational quotes of weddings on the black carpeted aisle, over which the bride walks and as she does she gets to read them too.
6. When sending out invites, you could save paper and do it through emails or if you fancy the same, you could send out picture calendar cards.
