wedding finds for tessa + dante’s wedding
A few months ago (on my 1st wedding anniversary coincidentally) my best friends Tessa and Dante tied the knot in Ashland, Oregon! It was such a beautiful, fun weekend and I had the honor of helping them plan it! So here is the ultimate list of everything we purchased for Tessa and Dante’s wedding! The list is small because luckily we were able to rent a ton from the day-of coordinator (I’d highly recommend renting if you can.Usually cheaper, less setup/teardown for you and less wasteful). If you want to see all the Amazon finds in one place - here is a link to everything from Amazon on my storefront!

CEREMONY/PARADE:
Bubble machines: These bubble machines were an INCREDIBLE idea Tessa had. They were super powerful and made for the most magical photos. We wish they were a little bit of a prettier color for photos, but we handed them out to guests on the far side of the aisle so the bubbles made it into the photos, not the guns, and it worked perfectly! Just remember to order batteries with these because they aren’t included!
Ribbon wands: Gave these out to guests as well for the parade to have a cute pop of color and give them something to wave around!
Bells: We handed these out after the ceremony for the parade around town and they were such a cute touch!
Bouquet charm: Tessa added this to her bouquet to walk down the aisle with a loved one!
Vow books: I’m obsessed with these vow books from Styling Archives. We used these for our wedding too and love how they look on the shelf as a memento!
Ring box: Gorgeous pop of purple to match the florals.
Flower girl basket & ring bearer pillow: Super cute matching basket and pillow for the kids!
RECEPTION:
Cardbox: This was the same cardbox I had and it makes for such a cute keepsake box after the wedding!
Flameless real wax taper candles: These were a hit! Super nice quality - love the real wax touch. Remember to order batteries seprately for these too!
Cocktail napkins: Tessa and Dante had a custom design from a company I co-founded, Ballpoint Chapel. Obsessed with how they turned out!
Frames: Used these gorgeous gold frames for signage and they’re perfect to re-use at home later.
Stationery: I love finding great templates on Etsy for signage to be able to fully customize while still keeping a cohesive theme. Then, printed at Prints of Love, who I used for my wedding too!
