Summery Wedding Decor
Posted June 10th, 2009 | 4:33 pm | By Roseanne Dela Rosa |

I seriously love this time of the year (although the weather over the last few weeks has been sort of odd). Regardless, I’m always so eager and ecstatic to see what other home decor stores are busting out for the summer. Decor stores are actually where I get a lot of my inspiration from. Pottery Barn in particular always has some amazing ideas, and although they are for the home, I can easily see their items being implemented into wedding celebrations. For example, I went online to check out a birthday gift for my mom (Happy Birthday Mom!) and thought that a potted plant is a pretty a neat alternative to having floral centrepieces. There’s something so earthy and calming about them. Another great idea would be adorning your tables with these chic and beach-like lanterns.

These canisters have a double use. I personally see them as an elegant way for guests to leave you a wish at the front of the reception room, in lieu of the traditional guestbook. Or, you could use them as vases to hold your candy favours in. The coolest part? You can have them monogrammed, so they’ll make for a nice wedding keepsake.

Having an outdoor ceremony? Surround your space with low bowls and fill them in candles similar to this image. It’ll add to the romantic atmosphere, especially during the night. Talk about mood lighting at its finest!

I’m pressed for time. But keep an eye out for more inspirational summer images from some of my fave stores this week. Happy Wednesday!
