I am a delighted wedding stylist today!  The new personalised wedding aisle runners at Pink Frosting’s wedding shop have me swooning and dying for an opportunity to test them out.  These luxe wedding decorations are the not only stylish, they’re completely unique to your wedding day as Pink Frosting personalises them with your choice of design, colour and with your names and wedding date.  Now that’s a wedding ceremony photo opportunity if I’ve ever seen one!

Aisle runners to decorate your wedding ceremony have become a beautiful way to define the entrance for your wedding service.  Whether in a church (to cover up an unstylish carpet) or outside to define the pathway the bride and groom, bridesmaids and other attendants will walk down to make their vows, a crisp white aisle runner is a great decoration for your wedding day.

Personalising your aisle runner with your names and wedding date, a design of your choice, custom colours and a message of love for your wedding day makes a statement about the bride and groom and also serves as a gorgeous backdrop for your wedding photographs as you make your vows.

Some advice:  we always recommend that you  secure the aisle runner so they don’t bob up and down.  The personalised aisle runners at Pink Frosting come with an adhesive backing which means you don’t need to worry about this, but other cheaper versions don’t so you’ll need to arrange some pebbles, pegs or other security measures to ensure that the aisle runner stays put.

Another tip: Don’t use a cloth or plastic aisle runner over fresh grass or sand unless it is backed by plywood or something solid: Your and your maids’ heels will go right through it into the soft ground beneath – yuck.  We recommend that you use some carpet or plywood underneath to make sure the aisle runner adds a perfect decorative touch and doesn’t sink into the ground!

I just adore these new personalised runners and can’t wait to see lots of great photos from our brides with these stunning ceremony decorations in the foreground.

Happy Celebrating!

The new range of wedding invitations by Alannah Rose at Pink Frosting’s invitation shop have us swooning!  The Bicycle Built for Two invitations and matching wedding stationery remind us of a romantic ride around the park with our sweetheart.  A truly sweet and whimsical invitation theme.  We love the design for an engagement party or a casual wedding celebration in a garden in Summer.  Simply divine.

Here are some stunning ways to help you put this sweet theme together for your wedding or engagement party via the beautiful blog Green Wedding Shoes and wedding photographer Travis Hoehne:

• Use personalised printed cake bags that suit your wedding theme and colour scheme or if you’re on a limited budget, Pink Frosting’s Sweet printed favour bags which are made for edible candy favours.  Glassine lined bags make sure that you won’t get an oil slick on the paper – yick!
• Stackable favour tins and containers make a lovely presentation when arranged on a specially created favour table.  Personalise each of the tins or containers with a favour label with your own details, colours and design;
• Go a little bit retro with a fun modern twist by wrapping your bomboniere in a tulle circle in a funky colour, then secure with a personalised ribbon and a unique printed favour tag.  If you use contrasting colours, this favour presentation can really pop!
• Create your very own wedding “party crackers” by following the DIY directions over at Martha Stewart Weddings - classic and sweet;
• There are so many amazing cupcake baking cups available now, why not use one to pop your wedding chocolates or candy in, wrap in cellophane and secure with a personalised ribbon  and tag?  Simply beautiful.
• Dress up the humble cellophane bag with a personalised favour insert.  The new bag inserts at Pink Frosting make us smile!
• Fill little tin favour pails with candy coated chocolate rocks to create a fun and yummy garden wedding treat;
• And of course you could have a fun wedding candy buffet to make every wedding guest smile!

Ostrich feathers are one of my favourite wedding decorations.  They look so glamorous and they work beautifully in wedding aisles, table centrepieces, in bridal bouquets and so much more.  They scream glamour and style and they really are very easy to work with.

If you’re wanting to create a glamorous table centrepiece using ostrich feather drabs, it is usually recommend that you use a florists ball floating at the top of the vase which you carefully sit the end of the feather into for support.  In honesty, I usually don’t use these green florists balls because they are difficult to cover up at the top of the vase.  The best way I have found is to fill the vase with a support filler that looks good, such as plain old cellophane scrunched up and then filled with water (this creates an amazing ice-like effect) or with water pearls and secure the feathers as low down as possible in the vase.  If you’re also using flowers, this makes securing the feathers much easier as well as they have something else to rest against.

I’ve tried wiring the feathers for some extra length, but again, I don’t think it’s necessary if you’re filling the vase with cellophane, crystals, sand or another great filler.

Usually, I recommend you use between 3 and 7 ostrich feathers per centrepiece, but it depends on your budget!  If you use too many, your centrepieces can end up looking like palm trees!

I also love ostrich feathers on the back of chairs at outdoor weddings, as pew decorations at a Church ceremony, as an addition to or in place of flowers in a bridal bouquet (as shown below by Karen Tran) or simply laid flat as centrepiece decorations for wedding reception tables.  They are a versatile wedding decoration, that’s for certain, and your guests will love to take one home at the end of the night!

And, as shown on the amazing Hostess Blog, they don’t just work for weddings!  These coloured feathers make a stunning baby shower decoration centrepiece too!

Sign, I love ostrich feathers…. Now available to purchase online at Pink Frosting.

I have always loved blackboards as wedding decor.  They make a rustic and fun way of presenting a menu, seating chart, directional sign, candy table decoration and table sign.  Maybe its the fact that I come from a family of teachers or that I spent hours making chalk drawings on blackboards to make some extra money.  Whatever the reason for my adoration, blackboards are a wonderful addition for any party, wedding or celebration.  They get the message across in a fun way.

The new miniature blackboard decorations at Pink Frosting make me very happy indeed!  I love how versatile they are – especially for presenting a candy buffet, lolly table, selection of desserts, wedding favours and so much more. 

Just don’t run your nails down them!  That could really kill the party mood.
