Fill clear glass ornament balls with dried flowers. Insert a ribbon with the name of the couple and the date written in silver or gold. Tie a bow of white ribbon on top.

Have a white ribbon printed with the bride and groom's names. Tie it in a bow and place it on top of some big silver bells.

Decorate small vine wreaths with dried flowers to match the bride's bouquet. These make cute napkin rings.

Cut the stamens out of some long-stemmed, white silk or plastic roses. Fill small mesh bags with rice and tie the tops with white or silver curling ribbon. Hot-glue a mesh bag into the middle of each flower. Untie the bows if you want to toss the rice at the bride and groom.

Take one Hersey kiss and hug. Put them together at the bottom. Push a floral wire stem (heavy enough to hold the rose up) through the top of the kiss and into the bottom of the hug. Cut colored cellophane, the color of the wedding (the kind for easter baskets) into squares large enough to cover both the hug and kiss. Twist the cellophane around the wire. Add a rose leaf twist that wire around the cellophane. Add floral tape to hold the rose leaf and the cellophane and to cover the floral wire. Make a small label that says "A Hug and A Kiss from Mr. & Mrs. **** with the wedding date. Pass out at the wedding or reception, I put them in a large vase for a vase of roses. -

When I was married last month, we made our own CD using our favorite songs. We included the First Dance song, the cake-cutting song and all the traditional songs. We made CD covers with our picture on it and gave all our guests a copy of the CD. Success! -
