Table Names

For the past few weeks I have been haunted by dreams of the wedding; first it was the guest list and last night it involved my table numbers/names.
I don't really know what my wedding theme is. I think it is more along the lines of simple elegance with touches of royalty throughout; after all my colors are purple and gold. Plus I found out the reception venue provides a special king and queen chair. Yay!
I've seen lots of pretty photos of table names/numbers and I am still not sure how I want to do it at my own reception. Since it will be a mixed cultural celebration, it would be nice to incorporate that somehow.

The pictures below can all be future DIY projects as well.

I am all about making everything have a dual purpose! The champagne bottle with table number can also be used for the champagne toasts! I think this is my favorite idea so far although I do love anything with a photograph. Picture courtesy of Thia Konig Photography)

I like how this couple used places that were important throughout their relationship with a lil' blurb. Cute way for your guests to get to know a little more about you. (Picture courtesy of Stella Alesi Photography)



I like how this couple used black and white shots with their table number incorporated; it really stood out against their table linens. (Picture courtesy of Baltazar Photography)

Just some Things I loved from a Real Life Wedding

I found a few things online that I thought were pretty or really cool for weddings. I love looking at bouquets especially those with fresh roses and here are some pretty ones I found from TheKnot:














The featured wedding today is from Lisa and Jerry's Wedding in CA from TheKnot. I was doing my daily browsing and loved almost every aspect of their simple, elegant, and classy wedding.





I love how the groomsmen are wearing sneakers. It just shows the individuality and creativity of the couple. I'm all about adding that personal touch or flair to weddings.









I have been seeing alot of these paper lanterns lately and I like the way it looks. I am considering using these type of lanterns at my reception hall.
