Welcome to Debt Free Wedding, the money-saving blog written by a father of the bride and author of Your Beautiful Wedding on Any Budget and Before You Say "I Do". Visit often . . .
One of the most unique decor-displays I have seen at a wedding reception involved the bride's and groom's childhood toys. Both had their favorite items displayed on a table: various dolls, Barbies, Easy Bake Oven AND Hot Wheels, transformers and baseballs.
Guests spend a great deal of time gathered around this display, as the toys really told the story of the bride's/groom's childhood and adolescence. But better yet, if the toys were used as centerpieces (along with, say, an accompanying history on an index card), imagine the conversation-starters and the money-savings! Talk about a fun and creative reception idea!
Don't overlook a simple idea like this one when it comes to decor. You don't have to spend tons of money on flowers and candles when items from the closet would work even better.
