Wedding Blog: Smores Bar Desserts | Wedloft by WeddingWindow.com Today, many brides and grooms are incorporating more of their own personal style into their wedding day. Many couples feel if they are going to spend thousands of dollars on this day, it should be one that they will enjoy and one that is filled with all things that they enjoy. So, when I ran across the idea of having a S’mores Bar during a wedding reception, I immediately fell head over heels in love … It is such a warm, family friendly idea (reminds me of the times spent telling stories around the campfire). It is an idea that has definitely been preserved over the years and lately is seems to have had a ‘face-lift’. photo credit: ellybevents.comPin it You can now see a s’mores bar literally on a bar set in rocks with burners serving as your flame source. photo credit: ellybevents.comPin it photo credit: ellybevents.comPin it photo credit: 100percentcottam-austin.blogspot.comPin it photo credit: www.carolinetran.netPin it Interested in a more classic style s’mores bar?

A Fun DIY Idea To Keep Kids Entertained At Weddings - StumbleUpon This is such a simple yet brilliant idea… All you need is a printer, some card, pencils and a disposable camera! {via Martha Stewart Weddings} Send children on a photo scavenger hunt with this game of i-spy! They have to spot a variety of typical wedding day occurrences / outfits and tick them off on their list. This works really well for older children 7-11 who will be able to do this independently but younger children will need adult help or help from older siblings. {I recommend using pencils rather than felt tips as you could end up with felt tip stains all over their hands, clothes and the table cloths ~ and you wouldn’t want felt tips anywhere near your pristine white dress!} If you wanted to, you could provide a little incentive such as a small bag of sweets or a pound shop toy for the first child to find all the things on the list or simply give the treats to the children’s parents for them to hand out as they see fit. Here’s a larger version: Are you having children at your wedding?

The moment I heard my first love story I began seeking you, not realizing the search was useless. I have for the first time found what I can truly love – I have found you. “The Velveteen Rabbit
