I recently came across these keepsake wedding magazines by Wedzines. They are perfect for the guest welcome bag if you are having a destination wedding, and they also serve as a wedding program. You can include content such as fun facts about the 2 of you, the story of how you met/got engaged, a schedule of wedding events, a guide to area hotels, attractions and restaurants… The options are endless and they definitely make a beautiful keepsake for your guests.

Beach Themed Wedding Jewelry

evonne — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 10:02:37 +0000

Thank you to Bonnie, the Owner and Operator of Bonita J, for sending us this article on wedding jewelry:

Beach weddings are one of the most gorgeous ways of celebrating your marriage. The mood is perfect and the back drop is beautiful. Finding wedding jewelry that coordinates with your sea side celebration is important to finish off the little details and pull your entire look together.

A great way to coordinate your beach wedding theme with your jewelry is to incorporate the colors found on the beach. Of course sandy browns and pacific opals are the trend, but burnt orange and bright hues of blues and greens are great too. This color pattern is great for bridesmaids but can also be worn by the bride if she prefers that extra splash of color.

Brides that want to still incorporate the ivory, creams, whites and crystal tones in their own look can still find crystal clear crystals and creamy ivory and whites to incorporate into their looks. If the bride wants that beachy feel, wearing a clear starfish that sparkles is a great way of collaborating that look together.

Another way of incorporating the beach theme is to select a crystal starfish that matches your color theme, whether you’re the bride or bridesmaid, there are a wide variety of color choices available in stores and online, so finding a great match is easy if you are looking out for this design.

Beach bridal jewelry is a nice touch that looks fantastic on your wedding day, but can also be worn on your honeymoon and other vacations. If you choose to give your bridesmaids beach wedding jewelry, they too will be able to wear their jewelry again after the big celebration. Starfish are very popular accessory items currently, so wearing your beach wedding jewelry again is both stylish and trendy.

Thanks so much, Bonnie for being a wonderful guest blogger. Make sure you visit Bonnie’s website at http://www.bonitaj.com for the rest of her bridal collection!
