Don't Forget to Decorate!
Wedding flowers, bouquets and centerpieces are traditional, but don’t forget to
beautify your receiving and gift tables too. Many florists will offer additional décor or

When incorporating candles into
the decor, most places will
require the flame be enclosed in
glass (as a safety precaution)
