Put paper in your wedding to keep paper in your pocket.

Paper Menus- I know you have seen acrylic menus and signs all over Pinterest. As beautiful as these unique pieces are, they are not always the most economical choice. Let’s take it back to the basics and use paper. With a not too fancy font, a simple DIY menu will handle the assignment and inform your guest of what delicious food they will have the pleasure of eating on your big day.

Paper Lanterns- The look of these traditional shades are timeless. There are so many colors and sizes to choose from, plus you can add your special touch to them. Like greenery or custom writing, use your imagination. Lanterns can be used indoors or outdoors and don’t necessarily need to shade a light. I totally recommend surfing Pinterest for inspiration.

Paper Backdrop- When you think of a floral backdrop on a budget, most of the time you think maybe a spray or two on an arch or something, not an elaborate display of giant flowers. Giant paper flowers can be rented to give your ceremony or sweetheart table the look it deserves. You can find giant flowers with all kinds of colors and shapes, realistic or fantasy.

Paper Umbrella- If you are planning on having your wedding during the summer months this is a great souvenir for your guests. It is practical, functional and can easily be personalized. They come in an array of sizes and colors. Have fun with a summer paper umbrella!
Paper bouquet- One tricky thing about fresh flower bouquets is that the flowers are not always in season. That’s why faux flowers are such a great option!! There are wood flowers, paper flowers, felt flowers and the best part is they don’t die. If well kept, they could last a lifetime. Bonus you can get them custom made. Totally research different types of custom faux flower bouquets. https://www.petalloft.com/bouquets/
