Guest Book Idea~ Calling all Sports Fans!
Are you or your fiancé avid sports fans? Then show it at your wedding! Instead of a traditional guest book, sign a football, baseball, or basketball. If hockey is your thing, then have everyone sign a hockey stick! All of these items would look wonderful displayed in a shadow box or hanging on the wall. If you like this idea but want to play it down a bit, just frame a picture of yourselves dressed in your favorite team’s jerseys (or going to a sporting event) and leave plenty of ink-friendly matting around the frame.
Rehersal Bouquet
A bride cannot be expected to walk down the isle without a bouquet. So, what do you do for the rehearsal? Traditionally the bride will carry a bouquet made from ribbons, which came from her bridal show. A bridesmaid can be put in charge of collecting all the ribbons at the shower. A simple handle can be bought at any craft store for only a small cost. All you have to do is hot-glue the ribbons on. This makes a fun and meaningful practice bouquet!

Personalized Luminaries
Here is a cute little idea from the girls at the knot. Take three picture frames and remove the glass and backings. Then take vellum paper and print your image on the paper. After that staple, the paper to the back of the three frames. Then attach the three frames together and form a triangle. Place a candle (in a holder for fire safety) in the middle and you have a beautiful personalized luminary. These luminaries can display table numbers, dinner menus, special notes to the guests, or a combination of the three!
Cookie “Bags”
These containers were made to look like humble brown-paper bags, but that’s where the resemblance ends. Sweet and crunchy, they can hold fruit or candy and can be served as an individual dessert as part of a buffet, or offered as a take-home favor. To make Cookie “Bags,” use a scalloped pastry wheel to cut the baked batter into strips about 1 1/2 inches wider than you want the bag’s height to be. Place a mold on the cookie; use an offset spatula to wrap the cookie around the mold. For the bottom of the bag, fold the excess cookie as you would if wrapping a gift.
