Wedding Anniversary Traditions

What's Yours? 

We all know about the Wedding Anniversary Gift tradition that’s been around for many years.

Gifting paper items for the 1st wedding anniversary. i.e. books, planners, personalized notecards are my favorites. For a more modern gift the 1st year gift a clock or gold jewelry. On the 2nd wedding anniversary tradition says to gift cotton and for a modern gift include China. On the 3^rd Year of wedded bliss, tradition says gift Leather or/and crystal, glass, pearls for a more modern gift. Anniversary #4 tradition says gift Fruit and/or Flowers (my favorite is Edible Arrangements basket) and a modern gift would be appliances, linen, silk or a blue topaz and so on... 

 

But, perhaps you create your own tradition that doesn’t include buying each other a gift.

Reservations at a certain-favorite restaurant that you only dine at for your wedding anniversary, revisiting the place you both met and for a romantic twist try reenacting that first hello, revisiting where you exchanged vows and relive the moment by reading your vows to each other, ordering a replica of your wedding cake and flavor?  

 

OR you can get as creative as our wonderful past clients D&J, who not only had their ceremony and reception where they 1st met but they saved their actual wedding cake and have been enjoying a slice on their wedding anniversary for the past 4 years! Yes, that’s right and she claims that it tastes amazing! They might have a slice or two left to enjoy on their 5^th.

 

What an awesome way to celebrate and relive that magical moment when you exchanged vows with your soul-mate. Reliving the moment you both gave your wedding cake the 1^st cut followed by the traditional kiss and feeding each other that first sweet piece...  

Thanks D for sharing your tradition with us. We wish you a Happy 4^th Anniversary and unlimited decades of wedded bliss.

Alessandra's Winter Wonderland Sweet 16 - Bridgewater Manor 1.12.13

I had such a blast designing and creating the pieces for this Winter Wonderland Sweet 16. Not only was I honored to design and create the beautiful stationery pieces and Candy Buffet for Alessandra, I was also so honored to be a guest at this gorgeous little lady's Sweet Party at The Bridgewater Manor. She looked so pretty and what a great time was had by all!

 

Escort Cards were printed on snow-white shimmer stock, tented on glitter stock and accented with a 3-D like snowflake. We utilized different color glitter stock for the escort card tents to create a colorful display.

 

 

 5x7 Table Numbers were displayed in Lucite-like frames

 

Here's the entire suite we designed for this Winter Wonderland Sweet 16!

The Sweet Tooth Booth aka Candy Buffet by NJ Candy Buffets by Catherine Scerbo Events, LLC was a delicious visual feast as usual! So winter wonderland yet so warm and sweet!
