Cinderella weddings allow couples to celebrate their magic amidst the grand enchantment of a fairytale filled with classic beauty and hope. With an abundance of available fairy tale accessories, you will be able to choose the perfect glittering enhancements to transform your wedding into a Cinderella fantasy.
Fairytale accessories are everywhere, and that makes enhancing a Cinderella wedding easy, fun and affordable. Party stores are filled with tiaras, magic wands, long gloves and bubbles. Add these to place settings and see how much your guests enjoy taking part in the fantasy!
Contact your local community theater or college theater department. They may have wonderful props to loan or rent you that can be used as accessories. Look for a large, gilded clock, a red carpet, or even a throne. If you can get a hold of Page costumes, let two Pages trumpet your arrival as you appear on that red carpet.
With either inexpensive paper crowns, or more intricate crown replicas, you can create breathtaking floral centerpieces. Just place pots inside the crowns and you have transformed ordinary arrangements to regal displays. Consider muted colors and pastels for your flowers. Red roses, however, are always a fairytale classic!
Pumpkins can be purchased in a white variety or painted white and then decorated with colored jewels, rhinestones, faux pearls and ribbons. They can create a continuous border along the floor, or be placed on tables for decoration. One can elaborate on the pumpkin theme with pumpkin candles, either made of wax or carved out of miniature pumkins.
Ice sculptures are ideal accessories, as they look like glass. A large ice slipper would be a perfect centerpiece. However, ice castles and crowns are dramatic and appropriate as well.
Instead of the ordinary wedding program, why not distribute antiquated scrolls? You can incorporate special thank you messages on yellowed scrolls decorated with glitter and tassels.
Make sure the bride has glass slippers (well, okay plastic)! To really add theatrical delight to the first dance, let the groom place a glass slipper on his bride?s foot before they dance. Perhaps the DJ or MC can announce the first dance by introducing His Highness and the Princess. Have the Cinderella soundtrack on hand for your fairytale music.
Pastel colored tulle will help transform any prop into a whimsical one. Add garlands of flowers, decorative birds, and inexpensive strands of costume jewelry to enhance the theme.
Finally, there are many Cinderella wedding websites that offer fun and clever accessories, such as themed pen and guest book sets, place card holders, cake toppers, serving utensils, toasting flutes, keepsake jewelry, bottle stoppers, etc.
As the clock strikes twelve and your wedding comes to a close, you will have the joy of knowing your fairytale is just beginning.
