Wedding Day Decorations To Keep To Decorate Your Home

Your wedding day is one of the most special days in your entire life. It’s a day that you’ll remember forever, and for many, it’s a day that they want to keep close to their heart for years to come. One way to do this is by keeping some of your wedding day decorations and using them to decorate your home. Here are some fabulous décor ideas that you can keep for years to come.

Flower Arrangements - Flowers are an essential part of any wedding. What people don’t usually realize is that they can be saved and used to decorate your home as well. You can keep your wedding flower arrangements to display them on your dining table, mantle, or coffee table. You can also dry them out and create a beautiful dried flower arrangement that will last for years. Some people put their dry bouquet inside a glass globe and use it as a centerpiece. Others have turned pressed dried flowers into coasters, ornaments, or jewelry via resin.
Candle Holders - Candles are also a popular decoration for weddings. Some people even light candles during the ceremony as part of the service. Consider getting an engraved candle holder for the service or to sit by the bride and groom at the reception. You could then keep it and use it in your home as a centerpiece on your dining table or as a decorative accent on your mantle. Consider this tall engraved wooden candle holder that states, “On this day, I will marry my best friend, the one I laugh with, live for, dream with, and love.” You can customize this for free by adding the couples names and wedding date.

Table Runners - Table runners are a simple yet elegant way to decorate your wedding reception tables, and they can also be used to decorate your home. You can use them on your dining table, coffee table, or even as a decorative accent on your bed. You can also repurpose them into throw pillows or cushion covers.
Wedding Favors - Wedding favors are a great way to thank your guests for attending your wedding, and some could also be used as home decor. For example, if you give your guests small potted plants, you can keep the extras and use them to decorate your home.
Photo Displays - Photos are a great way to remember your wedding day! You can create a photo display using your favorite wedding photos and arrange them on your walls or create a photo album that you can keep on your coffee table.

You can also incorporate your wedding day decorations into your home decor in a subtle way.You could display a photo from your wedding in a small frame on your bookshelf or create a gallery wall of your wedding photos, signs, and other decorations that tell the story of your wedding day.
In addition to adding a personal touch to your home decor, repurposing your wedding day decorations can also save you money. Instead of buying new decor, you can use what you already have and create a unique and meaningful space that reflects your personal style and memories.
