Yesterday, when I returned home from running a few errands, I found the most interesting package waiting on our doorstep.
Wanna see?
Now, what in the world could be wrapped up in that shape and have traveled all the way from Canada? Well, if you guessed my fancy wedding hanger, then you would be right!
Wedding hangers are another one of those items that I never even knew were a “thing” until I jumped into the world of wedding planning. They are certainly not a necessity, but have really become a common occurrence in so many wedding photos. I really love all of the different styles; from the wire Mrs. New First Name, to pretty painted colors, they are all so much fun!

A few other bees have DIY’ed hangers—Miss Lyre made a beautiful wire hanger for her bridesmaid’s wedding, and Mrs. Dragon and Mrs. Hyena personalized painted hangers for their weddings. However, this was a not a project that I thought I could successfully DIY, and I really wanted a beautiful hanger to hold my wedding dress on the big day, so I ordered this beauty and called it a day.
One of my favorite things about the hanger is the ornament that is included to hang from the top. It’s such a nice little touch, and there were multiple shapes to choose from.
I ordered the hanger from Kelly Jonsson of Black Scrap Cat over at Etsy, and I was so pleased with the quality of her work and the experience of working with her. So, if you’re like me and don’t want to DIY this particular item, I highly recommend her pretty wedding hangers!
Anyone else going the personalized hanger route? It’s really so weird seeing MRS. Coach, and realizing it’s me!
I like the hearted decoration for the top of the hanger! I have to ask… Did you get one for Mr. Coach?
Ughhh….. i ordered a hanger from the same seller on Etsy and I loved my hanger (seller was FANTASTIC!)….. and then i lost it right after the wedding. I think I might have left it in the hotel, but they said nobody turned it in. SO pissed about that!!!
Beautiful! Looked at the package return address – your hanger came from a little town pretty close to me (actually my Mom grew up there, its about an hour away). Cool!
Your dress will look awesome on the hanger.
Guess what? I also ordered the same hanger from the same seller on etsy! HAHA. I loved mine too. I also got the heart but I got a pink bow 
Cutsie package, thats for sure!
Oh yay! I love those hangers, and have no patience for DIY. Thanks for the recommendation!
The little ornament is so cute.
I’m determined to DIY one of these, but being honest, I doubt it’ll come out nice, I’m not a good DIYer.
Love it! I didn’t get a cute hanger and now I so wish I did!
Yours is super cute! My dad made one for me and I loved it, even with its little imperfections 
I got mine from the same seller and I totally loved it!! She is awesome, the quality is excellent
It’s so cute. I’d love to get my girls one each as part of their gifts. The guys might not feel the same way about them though
Ahhh so cute!! I never got a personalized hanger, but I kinda wish I had!
See I fell in love with this look but I realised I had something that others didn’t! When I was younger my nanna knitted me which I am going to use instead!
Mrs. Coach, Dallas Age and Occupation: 21, Undergraduate Student Fiance's Age and Occupation: 23, Retail Sales/Management Engagement Date: October 14, 2011 Wedding Date: October 2012 Venue: Piazza in the Village About Me: I was born and raised in the piney woods of East Texas, but Dallas has recently stolen my heart (along with Mr. Coach, of course!) I love classic rock, suspense novels, and my sweet Mini Aussie puppy, Memphis. My fiancé and I are planning a traditional wedding filled with romance, and we can’t wait to combine our own personal touches with a timeless affair. We’re young in years, but are also old souls that love good food and great music, and enjoy many things that are well before our time. We’re planning this wedding together, learning lots, and relying on good wine and reruns of Seinfeld to keep us sane along the way!
