Let your love blossom with a romantic warm wedding

Set the scene for a spring themed wedding with some affordable DIY ideas. A vase filled with artificial flowers that match your colour palette makes a simple centrepiece that can double as a gift for guests to take home. By using a clear vase, it will be sure to match any home it ends up in.

Walk down the aisle in style

Adding plant pots with plants at the start of your aisle is a great way to make a grand entrance. Try clustering flowers and greenery and adding them to the sides of the first chair as an easy way to dress up your aisle.

Let there be light

Light up the tricky areas where your guests will gather after dark, like staircases and paths to the bathrooms and bar. Using LED candles in a beautiful decorative lantern is a great way to set it and forget it.
