Florida Beach Weddings By Jules

Idea #5- Set a pint size kids table

admin — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 01:43:34 +0000

If you want something that is fun for the tiny guests, you can take milk crates and lay boards across them and use some matching tablecloths and decorate with miniature flower arrangements like the adult tables. Set napkins and utensils they will need. Then for seating you can use big squared pillows for seats.

Idea #4 – Make a unique guest book

Put a blank book (with table # ), a camera (with table #), and a pens on each table. Guests take pictures of themselves and write a few words in the book. Later bind the books together and add the pictures.

Idea #3- Give Gifts from the region

Arrange to have surprise treats, all made in the area, delivered to your guests’ hotel rooms each day of their stay. For instance, we are a Florida destination wedding company so we recommend chips with homemade tropical mango salsa’s and other ingredients from the area, homemade key lime pies, bottle of wine from a local maker in area and chocolate covered strawberries and orange slices. You can then list in the itinerary a note letting guests know what time to expect their treat each day.

Idea #2- Name your tables

Naming your tables after places you have been together such as a vacation spot, favorite restaurant, college maybe where you met, etc. gives a bit of history to your guests. You can add a story about your association to each place along with a photo of the 2 of you there.

Doing it your way-Wedding Idea #1

admin — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 22:10:01 +0000

Even for a beach wedding, a lot of brides want an aisle runner. Since you can not connect anything to the sand, why not try a paper aisle mounted on plywood. Create one with a wallpaper print. There are millions of beautiful prints that you can find to match your theme or color scheme. Many wallpaper companies will do this job for you. Just ask your coordinator how long of an aisle you will need and how wide. Buy 8 ft sections until you have your length. They can then be pieced together and placed on raked over and flattened sand which most beach companies will do this extra touch for you, just ask.

Beachy Bamboo Candle Centerpieces

Establish a luau ambiance for your beach theme reception with these easy centerpieces. Take different size clear glass cylinders and wrap bamboo sticks or even grass skirting around outside of glass and place votive type candle inside.

To determine how much bamboo or grass skirting, just measure height and circumference of each vase. Then just cut, wrap around the vase and hot glue seam. Place candle in middle and light.

You can buy inexpensive glass cylinders in a variety of sizes at any Hobby Lobby or Michael’s Craft store and Joanne Fabric stores. As for skirting and bamboo, I have purchased mine at Michael’s and also had bought bamboo place mats found at JC Penny’s and Pier One Imports. They are already tied together so be sure to use some glue at end where you plan to cut before cutting so nothing unravels.

Also you can add raffia (at Michaeal’s) to wrap around napkins. Place silverware inside napkins and fold into cylinder shape, tie off with raffia, maybe one piece of bamboo and let strands hang.

The Rosemary Wedding Tradition

Rosemary Cookie Favors

Rosemary or its Latin origins indicate “dew of the sea”, are believed to strengthen the memory which then becomes an emblem of fidelity and a symbol of remembrance.

Because of it’s meaning, “Remembrance”, it is know to be a great wedding favor. The gift of giving rosemary indicates that no matter what lies ahead on the couple’s new road together, they will remember those who saw them declare their love to one another. You can give a small rosemary plant for each couple to take home (note to say “In Remembrance of our day!”) or see Rosemary Cookie Favor Picture attached. Just take a simple butter cookie recipe, chop up some fresh rosemary very fine and add a small bit to your recipe. Come up with however you will package and add a sprig to the top with a note.

The bride and groom can also use it as part of their wedding ceremony. Each of them can carrying a small sprig and smell it as they say their vows, promising to commit their lives to each other. Every time after they smell the loving scent, the promises will be called back to mind remembering how each felt on their wedding day. (you can put the herbs in sachets in your drawers, mix it in potpourri and cook with it) Every use will stimulate the memories you are looking to recall.

Treasure Island Beach, Fl, Shawn and Kevin Allen

admin — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 13:10:52 +0000

It was a crazy weather day, and the bride and I weren’t sure if the wedding would have to be moved indoors. When we arrived at the beach to set, it had started to sprinkle and the winds were really picking up. Then it started to look like a hurricane type storm. Shawn and I sat back and figured, lets just wait, maybe with some rain dancing and praying it will clear up. Within 40 minutes the weather all moved away and out to sea. Our prayers were answered. We had very little time to now set, so the Arch and isle way decor were first and only a few chairs got set at the end, but Shawn got her beach wedding. The sky brightened up and as you can see Shawn and Kevin got some amazing pictures to take back to Tennessee. Beautiful couple and a beautiful day!
