Congratulations, you’re planning your wedding day! Now it’s time to come up with some affordable, make-ahead wedding decorations and favors to create a romantic atmosphere on your big day. Candles are always a wonderfully romantic addition to any wedding dcor that help set the mood for romance. You’ll want your wedding and reception tables to sparkle and look their best, so here are some beautiful (and affordable) accent ideas using candles:
Personalized votives. These inexpensive and versatile wedding favors can give you a lot of bang for the buck at your wedding event. Buy them in bulk, have them etched with your initials or a special picture to set out on tables. Then fill with anything you like – from inexpensive tea-light candles, to scented gels, seashells or colored stones, you can find many ways to use votives to give your wedding dcor a wonderful glow. Guests can then take them home to enjoy after the wedding to remember your special day always.
Gel candles. There are a large variety of candle wedding favors you can find for your special day. Gel candles, which come in all colors, scents and sizes, make wonderful wedding favors. Gel candles are known for giving off a much better scent when lit. You can even find some that have little things inside like flowers, seashells or gems to make your wedding day sparkle.
Heart shaped candles. A wedding is about the joining of two hearts, so why not use heart shaped candles in your wedding decor? You can set them on individual votives or candle plates. For an even more stunning look, try grouping several heart candles in a deep rich red on mirrors on the centers of the tables as a focal point for guest to enjoy.
Floating candle tea lights. One of the best ways to use hearts in your wedding theme is by floating special heart shaped tea lights in bowls or vases filled with colored water. This is a lovely and inexpensive way to create interesting centerpieces and lots of candlelight without the worry of starting a fire.
Sand candles. Think back to those happy childhood memories and you will most likely think of playing at the beach or spending family vacations along the seashore. If you are like many couples, you will be planning a romantic honeymoon at a beach destination so why not allow your wedding guests to enjoy some of that by giving out little sand castle candle favors? It’s a nice way to thank them for coming to share in your wedding day and to let them know you will be thinking of them as you embark on a new journey as a couple.
Planning a romantic wedding is as simple as thinking of all those special little touches that you want your guests to remember. By using candles as part of your dcor and wedding favors, you will share the love and warmth of your special day that guests will remember always.
