Wedding decorations add a special touch to a special day. They come in a variety of colors and themes, from those that exude elegance to decor that offers a rustic chic feel. Shop for DIY projects to put a personal stamp on the day, or opt for pre-made products that fit in with your current theme.

Seat Guests in Style with Place Cards and Number Tents
Place cards let guests know where they're seated for the reception. They resemble business cards and come in tented and flat formats. Design your own with graphic software and a matching cardstock or buy a template that you can customize and print at home.

Number tents go hand-in-hand with place cards. Many people opt to leave the place cards at the front of the reception room where guests can pick them up and find their table by the number listed on it. The number tents serve as an indicator. Couples can choose to use fancy fonts to complement an upscale setting or standard fonts for casual events.

Invite Attendees to Leave a Personal Note with a Wedding Guest Book
Wedding guest books give attendees a way to congratulate you, or simply sign their name so you can reflect on it in the years to come. They come in different sizes, often with lined pages with space for names and a short message. Some people choose to use a scrapbook, later adding in photos of the guests enjoying the event, or to save mementos from the reception.

Express Gratitude with Favors and Wedding Thank You Cards
Favors offer a take-home symbol of your union. They may be simple organza bags filled with Joy almonds, wine bottle stoppers or engraved coasters. Decorate the packaging with a keepsake box or a simple favor tag that has a short message of thanks.

Wedding thank you cards are a must, whether you receive gifts or not. Choose between making your own using special paper and templates, or purchase pre-designed cards with a blank interior for crafting your own message. You can choose to tie them into the decor scheme by matching the same design as the invitations or opt for a new look altogether.

What Should You Buy for Wedding Decorations?
Each wedding is different, so it's important to consider how many decorations you want to display. If you're looking for simplicity, place cards, number tents and a centerpiece on each table is enough to tie a room together. The bridal party table should have the most appeal, with either additional centerpieces or a catchy banner.

How Do You Make your Own Wedding Decorations?
If you're looking for a way to set the event apart, consider custom designs and decorations. Cardstock is a versatile material that you can use to create banners, place cards, seating charts and favor tags. It comes in matte, glossy and metallic shimmer in several colors to match the theme of your special day. Some companies offer template kits that come with everything needed to create favors, boxes and cards.

What Makes a Nice Place Setting?
Decorating a place setting takes care and consideration. Depending on the venue, it can consist of silverware, glasses, plates and favors. Use flowers or tulle as a napkin ring, keeping silverware wrapped until the guests are ready to use them. Alternate between colors and place favor boxes or bags either on the plate or just above.
