Happy Sunday everyone in the blogosphere. I hope today is going well and dandy for you all. Sponsor Sunday is up and today I have a beautiful and amazing blogger named Chandra. She is my featured sponsor for this month and I love her blog. It's classic, simple, stylish look she has going on is wonderful. So I'm pleased to introduce you to Chandra and her blog.
I received a few emails inquiring about our wedding tablescape design
and ways to keep cost down while creating a unique
display. I'm no expert, but will gladly share!
1. Go with small collections/clusters instead of
using large floral arrangements on your
tables. We collected vintage bottles from thrift
stores and flea markets and added simple floral to create this
look. Also, everything does not have to be placed on the same
level. We stained wood planks and added candles and bottles on
top to create a little more interest and height. Check
out THIS POST for ways to save on
your flowers.
2. Add texture. We opted for
burlap runners placed on white table linens. We also included
textured potted green plants and succulents on the tables along
with different types of greenery and berries in the
arrangements. Wood slices (we recycled from a fallen tree) were
also included along with lots of moss.
3. Candles. This is an
inexpensive option for creating a soft light and looks amazing
when photographed.
4. Add personal touches. Photos
were a huge hit with our guests. We made framed luminaries
(click HERE for tutorial) and placed
pictures in mason jars (illuminated with LED lights). We also
spray painted silver trays and old picture frames with chalkboard
paint and placed them on easels. These made great wedding
signs and a menu. Get creative and DIY . Some of the
best weddings I've ever attended were those where the bride and groom
added bits and pieces of themselves to create a wedding that was truly
their own.
5. Finally, keep it
interesting. Every table does not have
to match. Just incorporate different textures, colors, and
layers. There are no rules to follow, just do what you
like! Mix 'n match things and just have fun! And for more
wedding pictures and news (just in case you missed it) click

These are awesome photos and great advice. Everyone loves to have a beautiful stylish wedding or any event while saving a few pennies here and there. Such great advice and it made for a beautiful event. And those wedding photos are so lovely. Your dress was amazing!!! Thank you so much Chandra for sharing this and for being a sponsor on my little blog!
