Wedding Blog

As a wedding planner, I understand the importance of eating on the big day. I want to make sure that we all stay energized and don’t pass out at the altar. I found this cute idea off of the Mathew Mead website for a fun snack.

“Recycle a paper beverage carrier using paper and a tag from our download section. We used double-sided tape to attach the paper. Our version includes a soda, a sandwich, an apple, a flower, and silverware. A cloth napkin adds an elegant touch to this literal “lunch-to-go.”

Mathew Mead is the male version of Martha with an abundance of fab ideas. Check these out:

“Add some crystal sparkle to your summer evening with this precious candle holder. Purchase colored jars at the craft store and make handles for them from bailing wire. Next, adorn the handles with beaded garland in your choice of hues. Add sea glass in a coordinating color and a glass votive, and, voila! You now have a beautiful candle holder to brighten your party or give as a gift.”

“For that soft glow that memories are made of, try our dressed up lantern from Ikea. Start with a plain black lantern and choose white, beige, or a pastel spray paint. Add our downloaded papers for a look that you won’t soon forget. Use two sheets of paper back-to-back against the outside of the glass. Double-sided tape will hold things in place. Paper all four sides of the lantern, including the door. Hang multiple lanterns over a dining table, spread around a great room, or place strategically on a porch for just the right amount of romantic light.”
