3. Props

Household items such as umbrellas can make beautiful wedding decorations as they hang down from the sky. What's amazing about using props such as these includes that not only can you hire them if you wish, it is also a certainty that every household has at least one umbrella on hand for rainy day purposes. You can ask your guests to borrow one prior so that when they walk into your wedding reception and see their umbrellas all on display, a personalised feeling of closeness can be achieved as they truly are partaking in your special day.

4. Submerged flowers and candles

Tealight candles, flowers, water paired with glass vases or mason jars. A pretty combination that is guaranteed to impress. You can grab tealight candles and vases from local supermarkets and water from your nearest tap. Vanity Dreams Styling can help with the catering of fresh flowers to create a beautiful table centrepiece.

5. Origami

Paper cranes, paper flowers, you name it and it shall be made. Paper is such a versatile and flexible material and it can be folded this way and that to create a perfectly light wedding decoration theme. You can hire them from vendors like Ektory or you could use this as an opportunity for bonding time with all your bridesmaids and groomsmen, sitting together and folding away into the night, where all your hard work and effort can be on display on your big day.

6. Fruits and veggies

Pumpkins and pineapples, lettuces and cabbages. Basically anything that grows under the sun can be used! Best thing about them is that not only do they make an eye catching table decor, none of it will go wasted as the flesh of the fruit can be carved away and used for the reception dinner, leaving only the shell behind for all to see.
