12 days of christmas: day seven

Real Wedding

As we approach Christmas, we are reminded of all the pretty and amazing items we decorate with for the holiday season. Now is the perfect time to stock up on holiday staples for your future wedding day. We took 12 holiday decor items to show you how to use them all year long. We bet after Christmas you will be hitting the stores as those 70% off signs pop up to grab any goodies left over!

Day Seven:  Lights. Christmas lights are fairly inexpensive during the holidays. They are an easy way to create character and ambiance at your wedding. We love stringing them across trees for an outdoor reception. Let your imagination run with lights!
