Re: Brideshare Brilliance
Ok SGC,
I have been jotting down points and this is what I have compiled until now:
- long burning tealights
*babysitters (or any sort of kid-occupying measure but in front of moms).
*have seasonal flowers (like submerged Bougainvillearoses/roses)
*Varying the heights of the vases
*silver matkas with water, floating petals and floating candles with rose petals all around and more candles in votive holders.
*dressy linens will come from the hall.
*plan to alternate a few glass top tables with the regular ones or as you said a mix of round and square tables for visual interest.
What’s left: Just have to direct the planners what to do and I am all set.
Ladies, SGC’s wedding was tasteful and enjoyable and I am still in awe! Lovely!
I would love more DIY ideas regarding anything you might have done/heard, if not in a desi wedding then a gora wedding, just anything.
*BTW, most of the gora invitations I have seen are DIY like they buy colorful paper and make pocketfolds and match the inserts/programs/RSVPs/Thank You cards and print them out via a laser printer or may be letter press. Like this one:
Even the little strip on the Green envelope has been printed by the bride herself:
I have this card idea in mind but I don’t think that I’ll be able to make it by myself as I don’t have a letter press (Also, I don’t know where I can buy the art supplies or the letter press in Karachi). I do have a few changes in mind, though like changing the colour of the inserts or changing athe whole combo acc to the bride’s dress.
What do you think?
