Pillow Stories

The ring pillow is a classic addition to weddings. I love this embroidered pillow from Pillow Stories. Its square embroidered pattern is captivating and lovely, perfect for both an indoor and outdoor wedding. Best of all, although this is mainly a decorative pillow and is sixteen inches square, you can request a smaller size from shop owner Marilena Koliavasili, giving you the choice to use the pillow as a gift, as wedding decor or as a ring pillow.

XOXO Spoons

How cute are these silver plated planter markers? Oh, they'd fit in so perfect with a vintage inspired outdoor wedding! You can use these spoons by Daisy Chestnut in a planter centerpiece, or include them in random table decor, even offer them as a wedding favor along with a small packet of seeds, for a super cute, and green, inspired details.

Tulle Letters

I love these tulle wrapped letters from All For Love on Etsy. They're customizable, which means you can pick not only your letters but they're available in a variety of colors. Wrap them in bright tulle for an outdoor bohemian or colorful wedding or wrap them in a more subtle color for a black tie event.

Lavender Boutonnieres

I love these lavender and red boutonnieres from The Sunflower Stand. They're adorable, rustic, and are the perfect addition to an autumn barn wedding.
