I am planning my Cinderella Themed wedding for June 2005. I purchased slippers at AC Moore for the placecard holder. I will also order cards with the cinderella on them. For the favors I will be ordering candles (2) wrapped with a gold bow and they are white inside is a gold castle form Bridal Shop. Does anyone have any ideas for centerpieces? I want to make them vrs. Having large elaborate flowers. ALso, ny ideas for decoration or props? The reception hall has a pillars that will be decorated with white lights and tooling.
For centerpiecese, take the round bubble bowls and cover the bottom with the diamond cut rocks, (looks much more elegant than marbles). Sprinkle irridescent glitter around the rocks. Place a horse and carriage favor or castle or even a slipper on the rocks and fill with water. The favors magnify under the water and looks beautiful over the rocks and glitter. We painted our favors white. Then place a floating candle on top with rose petals all around it. This is a magical centerpiece! We also gave the slippers as favors but we bought a castle candy mold and made chocolate castles and also made chocolate mice (Cinderella's friends) and wrapped them and placed them in the slippers with favor tags. I also made a castle card box. I took a plain tall cardboard box that I bought from a craft store and covered it in satin and trimmed the top with a white fur boa. I glued a ribbon trim with pearls around the top of the boa at the bottom of the box. I them sprayed the entire box with a glitter spray made for fabrics and when it dried it had an irridescent look. I bought a Polly Pocket castle and sprayed it completely white and then I sprayed it with clear lacquer and doused it with irridescent glitter. I glued beaded ribbon around the towers.! Everyone who has seen it just loves it. My daughter is getting married 2/21/04 and I am still trying to come up with more ideas. Good Luck!
