Creating An Idea For Wedding Decorations
By Barbara Kelly

Planning a wedding takes a great deal of imagination, organization and vision. Wedding decorations can take any direction that the bride and groom envision as their own personal style. However, it is imperative that a theme for the wedding and reception be decided upon very early in the planning and preparation stages in order to obtain the wedding decorations.

Wedding Decorations For An Ocean Theme

Planning a thematic wedding and reception is very easy to accomplish once a theme has been determined. For example, a beach theme is very easy to create. The colors for the wedding decorations in a beach theme would be light blues, grays and whites. These are the colors that create a mood of calmness, serenity and the ocean atmosphere.

Wedding Decorations To Create An Ocean Experience

Long white linens on the tables will provide movement like a sea breeze as people walk past. Placing an unframed full-length mirror down the center of each table provides a reflective base for the centerpieces. If using round tables, single mirror squares will provide the same reflective base for each table. Scattering the mirrors with a small amount of children’s play sand and seashells will create and immediate sense of the ocean.

Purchasing candles to decorate the tables create an intimacy at the reception. It is possible to purchase sea blue gel candles that contain tiny natural seashells and starfish. These wonderful candles create miniature beach images on each table and enhance the serenity people often seek at the ocean shore.

The overall visual experience of the candles, sand and seashells will create the ambiance you are seeking in ocean theme wedding decorations, creating an ocean experience for each of your guests.

Beachcomber Flip Flop place cardholders provides a creative use of the beach theme while identifying the seating arrangements for your guests. At the end of the evening, these tiny little favors can go home with your guests for a photo holder. This unique method of creating a mood, identifying seating and sending home a gift with your guest will provide a special memory of your wedding for each of your guests.

Creating A Wedding Cake That Matches The Wedding Decorations

A light blue frosted cake with accenting white frosting will provide a wedding cake that is appropriately thematic with the wedding decorations. An innovative wedding cake topper that is designed with a bride and groom seen walking across the sand ties in the theme immediately and creates a memorable souvenir for later years.
