Add Some Shine to Your Wedding Day
By Melissa Ingram
You can add some glamour and shine to your wedding day by incorporating metallics, crystals and jewels into your wedding attire, decorations and even the food!
The metallic trend is very popular in fashion and that trend carries over into weddings too. To add a little glamour and glitz to your wedding ceremony, your bridesmaids can wear silver dresses or jeweled sandals. You can also find many wedding dresses with crystal beading and other shimmery touches. Bridal shoes are another place you can infuse the metallic trend. Choose silver or gold patent pumps, sequined ballet flats or sandals with Swarovski crystals on the vamp.
For your wedding reception, Asian-themed red and gold decorations are a great option. You can also select silver and white as your wedding colors for a frosty winter wedding. This is especially glamorous for an evening reception.
When picking your wedding favors, choose chrome bells and key chains, crystal figurines, frosted glass coasters and other favors. You can also make your own shiny favors by purchasing silver tulle circles to wrap candies and other small treats. Tie each bundle with a piece of metallic ribbon.
At your wedding reception, dust the center portion of each table with glitter or metallic confetti before placing the centerpieces on the table.
Interestingly enough, people are even adding metallic touches to wedding food. Edible gold and silver products are available that allow you to add shimmer to cocktails and foods at your wedding reception. You can use these products on your cake, to rim glasses, as topping for hors d'oeuvres and even as additives to meals. Easy Leaf Products is one of several companies that sells edible gold and silver additives for food and beverages.
