Guide your guests to their destination

If you have a large wedding venue, it can get pretty confusing for guests to know where to go. A growing trend in weddings is to add little details to make life easier for your guests.

One cute idea is having signs guiding guests to the right locations. For example, they may have to park in one area, visit another for the ceremony and then another for the reception.

It can get even more confusing if you have fun activities planned like a photo booth. How do they know where to go?

With these cute ideas like the rustic street-signs and the polished and clean parking sign below, your guests will be sure to appreciate your gesture in helping them get un-lost. (Just think drunk guests at the end of the night)

Another great idea is if your event ends in the evening, make sure to light the way out of your venue. Late at night it can get dangerous for guests that are unfamiliar with your location, especially if its dark and wooded.

Whether you choose a path of flickering candles , electric lights or even Solar, it will make a safe exit as well as give a beautiful look to your post-reception getaway.

Invitations - The Royal Treatment

Couture Wedding Invitations

After thinking I would go with a pink & brown theme for my wedding, I had to go and find these gorgeous purple invitations.

They're so regal and droolworthy. I think you'll agree. Now that my venue is a gorgeous estate that looks fit for royalty, I may just change my color scheme ideas...

Between this lovely Couture Invitation to my left with the stunning crystal swan by Wanderlust and the beautiful and chic set that I found on Evelopements below, I think I may be in love with purple...

Good thing I didn't pick my bridesmaid dresses yet.
