Blackboard Wedding Ideas {Wedding Decoration Inspiration}

Posted on April 4, 2012 by gemma

Blackboard wedding decorations are great for summer weddings. A simple and effective DIY way to add a personal touch to your wedding decor. We have lots of blackboard wedding ideas to share with you.

Use large blackboards or chalkboards around your wedding venue. Use large blackboards as directional signs, greet your guests, write the order of the day or just use the blackboards for quotes and sayings.

Blackboards are perfect for your wedding table plans and numbering tables. Use large blackboards, or special blackbard stickers which stick onto flat surfaces for your table plans. Or you could use mini blackboard labels to label jam jars or terracotta pots with numbers for a more unique table plan idea.

Numbering your tables with blackboard signs which stick into your table centres is one way of numbering your tables, alternatively have slate place settings and write each guests name on the sate with chalk. For an all in one table centre and table number blackboard buckets are fab. Write the table name or number on the front of the bucket in chalk and then fill with gorgeous seasonal flowers.

Have you thought of using keys are part of your wedding decorations? Here at The Wedding of my Dreams we think they look beautiful. Use antique keys, or keys which have a special meaning to you, maybe they open a door to a special place or open an old family jewellery box.

If you are going to use keys as part of your wedding decoration they could be incorporated into your grooms button holes. If you have a special key use this for your groom, and other antique looking keys for the rest of your male bridal party.

Hang keys from branches planted in a pot or bucket and make your own wedding table decorations, they would make lovely wedding centrepeices, alternatively use these mini trees as wish trees.

Keys also add unique touches to escort cards, if you’ve not come across escort cards before they are similar to table plans. Each guest has an individual escort card with their table number on the back, often guests can choose where they sit on that table. Make your escort cards by tying keys with ribbon to your luggage tags.
