  • Hand-Painted Succulent Reception

    The Hand-Painted Succulent reception is soft and a bit ethereal. Succulents, like origami cranes, are small elements that can really sneak into any wedding design element, for instance, as cake toppers, amongst table decor, inside bouquets, or as escort cards that second as wedding favors. Above I have only shown real succulent decor, but there are also succulent-shaped candles and jewelry.

    If you are interested in making your own slate succulent displays Terrain has graciously put a DIY tutorial on their site, that you can view here.

  • Hand-Painted Succulent Invitation

    The Succulent Invite is cute yet enchanting. It is unique yet timeless. This invitation would be perfect for a spring or summer wedding, but could also be stretched to other seasons based on how seasonal it is where you live…ie. it would be perfect all year round in Arizona!

    It would be a great invitation for the couple who is looking for a “green” alternative to cut flowers in their table decor. Hand-Painted Weddings cares about the environment.

    Note: You can now order the Succulent Invitation under the Hand-Painted Weddings Shop Invitations tab.

  • Inspired by Succulents: The Photo Edition

    Just a little additional proof that I have been admiring succulents for some time now! These photos were all taken during separate trips to Terrain. I think that Terrain adores succulents as much as I do!

    One of the unique attributes of succulents is that they do not need a lot of soil to live in, so there are a lot of options in which to display your succulents…on a log, on a piece of slate, or in a pot. This is perfect in preparation for wedding reception table settings. This would be a beautiful “green” way to spruce up your table setting. I’ll have more succulent wedding decor ideas later in the week, so stay tuned!
