My Wedding Reception Ideas

Glitz and Glamour New Years Eve Wedding

Mindy and Eric tied the knot on New Year's Eve among family and friends and then partied into the new year in style with this glitz and glam wedding. This may be our favorite pink and gold wedding ever, with plenty of custom details and a 'Kiss Me At Midnight' theme. We can't think of a more wonderful New Year's Resolution than saying 'I Do' to your soul mate and promising to love them forever!

You're going to need plenty of time to ooh and aah over this beauty captured by the talented Blair Schluter Photography, so don't let us keep you!

Guests were greeted at the entrance to the reception by gold party horn place cards and tins of 'Happy New Years' headbands to set the tone for the evening.

Simple cardstock clock-inspired printouts were placed on gold chargers - under the glass plates - adding the perfect New Year's touch to each guests' place setting.

A popcorn bar with plenty of topping choices featured custom popcorn boxes and a custom sign with suggestions for flavor combinations.

Two custom cakes made for the perfect wedding-day treats to hold guests over until midnight. The main wedding cake is an elegant 5 tier white cake with gold sparkle accents and pink sugar flowers. The groom's cake features a more rustic feel with a 'naked cake' finish, lush greenery, and an antler monogram cake topper.

Lush Garden Romance Styled Wedding Shoot

You are in for an absolutely amazing treat today with this styled wedding shoot. We can't thank Mandi Mitchell Photography enough for dreaming up this unique event and sharing it with us to pass along to our wonderful readers. With a color palette filled with pinks, corals, and lush greens - not to mention details ranging from vintage to rustic to glam - we can pretty much guarantee that you will have the incredibly beautiful details dancing through your mind in spectacular fashion for days. Every last accessory and decoration fits together perfectly to form a jaw-dropping affair that reminds us of a perfectly put-together garden party.

These kraft colored wedding gift boxes are tied with ribbons that match the wedding colors and filled with delicious looking items including champagne gummy bears, gourmet popcorn, a few perfectly frosted 'love' cookies, and an elderflower and rose lemonade paired with a beyond-cute chevron paper straw. Pamper all of your wedding guests, or just treat your bridal party to these fantastic take-home treats!

This darling sweetheart table was draped with an eye-catching sequin tablecloth and accented with white chairs different from those the guests will be sitting in. 'Mr.' and 'Mrs.' signs are hung on the chairs and shepherds hook stands hold flower-filled birdcages to create the perfect backdrop for the two lovebirds during the reception. A second sequin-covered table for the bridal party is adorned with votive holders, a lantern, and unique sets of china at each place setting.

Farmhouse tables are set for the guests, and the smooth wood of the tabletops pairs effortlessly with vintage style candle holders with a mix of crystal, mercury glass, fine china, and wooden lanterns. The ambiance of the candlelight paired with the stunning floral arrangements positioned all throughout the length of the tables has us daydreaming of being a guest at this wedding.

A custom dessert spread includes macaroons, sprinkle-covered cupcakes, rock candy, and champagne gummy bears along with an assortment of pies and cookies. Displaying these in a variety of containers and on assorted cake stands adds interest to the stunning piano-top display. The wedding cake was displayed on an antique table surrounded by gorgeous floral details to set off the natural look of the naked cake featuring a rich frosting between each tasty layer.
