Love Birds Wedding Theme

Posted on by Glendalough Manor

One of the most popular and trendy wedding themes for 2013 is “Love Birds”!

Deciding on a wedding theme can be a difficult task.  You want to choose something unique and creative while also staying true to your personalities.  A Love Bird theme may be the perfect choice! This theme is great for someone who wants a rustic and/or vintage wedding that wants to incorporate earthy materials in to their decor.  For example, using materials such as feathers, twigs, branches, wood, or moss mixed with the softness of flowers is the perfect way to bring your whole love bird theme together.

Some brides are carrying bouquets made of all feathers or using feathers to mix in with their flowers!  I also love using very small bird nests as boutonnieres or as ring bearer pillow!

Birdcages are another great thing to use in your wedding decor.  Used as a centerpiece with flowers it makes a stunning centerpiece.

Wedding Decor: Vintage Birdcages!

Posted on by Glendalough Manor

Birdcages are not just being used as gift card holders anymore!  With the popularity of vintage themed weddings, birdcages are being used in so many different ways to decorate ceremony and reception spaces.  If you are having a rustic or vintage themed wedding you can use birdcages for an easy and inexpensive DIY decor element.

A great way to incorporate birdcages is to use them as the centerpieces for the tables at your reception!  Vintage birdcages are beautiful by themselves and with candles or flowers they become stunning centerpieces.

You can find small birdcages to use as pew ends or even use them as place cards at every place setting.

Or find a large birdcage to hang and display place cards!  Some brides are also using it as a “wishing well” where guests can leave them their well wishes!

One of the most beautiful ways I have seen birdcages used is to hang them from a tree or tent.  You can even put candles in the birdcages and use them as romantic lighting.  Just stunning!

And if you want to go all out with the bird cage theme why not have a bird cage wedding cake?
