To-dos before the I Do
From welcome signs at the ceremony to reception table decorations, here’s a handy wedding decor checklist with everything you could possibly need to make your day feel festive!
Ceremony Decor
At the ceremony, welcome guests and give instructions about seating arrangements and phone usage (unplugged ceremony, anyone?) with outside wedding decorations and cute signs. Accents like flowers, tulle or ribbon bows, and an aisle runner create a pretty backdrop for your procession. And accessories for your flower girls, ring bearers, and pets ensure that everyone is ready to celebrate.

Cocktail Hour Decor
With the addition of a few personalized elements—striped or patterned paper straws for your signature drink, custom cocktail napkins, and glasses or matchbooks that guests can take home—you’ll make this hour-long interlude a memorable part of the day. Don’t forget to put out a sign that says what drinks you’re serving!
