Photozone for a wedding

No wedding is complete without a photo shoot! In order for the pictures to be colorful, a special photo zone should be prepared. It is better to have a photography location near the banquet table so that it is accessible to guests, but at the same time away from the dance floor. It can be a corner at the entrance to the restaurant, or maybe a separate room, which will be originally decorated. If you decide to place the photo zone in nature, then it is advisable to equip a canopy from the rain so that the decorations do not get wet.

If the wedding celebration is held in a certain style, then the chosen style should also be seen in the photo zone. It can be made with your own hands from improvised means, for example, large flowers from plain white paper or pastel light colors.

Or garlands of artificial flowers.

LED garlands are also great, especially when combined with organza and silk curtains.

Candles combined with subdued artificial light will create a whole play of shadows on your holiday. And the flowers in the photo zone are always relevant!

A love poem will help create a simple but very romantic photo zone!

Traditional balloons will also create a light festive atmosphere against the background of mega-popular photo frames.

To make the photos look more spectacular, it is worth providing additional equipment for a photo shoot. It can be interesting umbrellas, hats, glasses. You can make out of paper and attach paper sponges, mustaches, bows, horns, etc. to a stick.

Good day to all who visited my diary. In this section of my diary, I will talk about my first experience in decorating a wedding whipping plate. As I wrote earlier, I took up the design after my younger brother told us about the wedding and after my mother and I visited a number of bridal shops. Seeing the prices that were there, I decided that I myself could do no worse than in the store and much cheaper.

In my work I used:

1. The fabric left over from some bouquet of flowers given to me by my husband. (Since the bouquet was large, after cutting the fabric that was in the water, a decent piece of fabric remained)

2. Trimmings from the curtain (the curtain itself is in the background).

3. Satin ribbon.

4. Self-adhesive beads.

5. Fabric flowers.

6. Elastic band for money 2 pcs.

7. Glue moment-gel.

8. Monofilament.

9. Lighter for processing the edge.

10. Plate

12. Good mood, free time, the desire to make a beautiful thing with your own hands.

Small digression:

In our stores, a whipping plate costs from 450 to 900 rubles, my plate cost me 180 rubles.

1. Prepare the plate, wash it, clean it of all labels and stickers.

We wash all the material, iron it, cut off the piece of fabric we need in size.

Since the fabric from the curtain is very thin, I had to take the fabric left over from the flowers, it was much denser and holds the plate well. We lay out the fabric, put a plate in the middle, form beautiful folds and fix it with an elastic band.

2. Lay out the fabric from the curtains, also put the wrapped plate in the middle, form beautiful folds and also fasten with an elastic band. We fix the elastic band so that it lies on the lower elastic band. We cut the fabric from the flowers as close to the elastic as possible, and collect the fabric from the curtains in our hand and equalize the edges, then gently melt the edges with a lighter.

3.

4. We tie the place where the elastic band is attached with a satin ribbon, make 6 ponytails, cut them obliquely and melt them with a lighter.

Decorate satin ribbon self-adhesive beads (because they do not hold well, I glued them on glue)

5. In the middle, on the cut fabric from the flowers, we sew flowers from the fabric with monofilament (before pulling the thread, I smeared the flowers with gel for reliability and then tightened the thread)

6. After all the decor has fallen into place, we straighten the tail of the fabric beautifully.

7.

8.

9.

All plates are ready.

Wedding accessories Master class of whipping plates for a wedding. At a wedding, every wedding attribute, every accessory has a special and important meaning. So, one of the wedding accessories, a whipping plate, is broken by the newlyweds for happiness, it was previously believed that the more pieces, the more children the newly-made family will have. Now, in order not to frighten the young, they most often say the more pieces, the more happiness. One way or another, at weddings, it is customary to step on a plate for young people. I propose to see how easy and simple it is to make such a plate in the same style as the whole one. Of course, the Master class is uncomplicated, but once again I remind you that my site is for ordinary people, girls who have not encountered needlework, but want their wedding to have unique and inimitable wedding accessories. So, how is a whipping plate for a wedding made ?!

In order to make a plate for whipping for luck, you will need:

White plate - tulle - rubber band for money - wide lace- thick satin ribbon - artificial flowers and decorative beads - scissors - candle or lighter - glue gun

So, we put the plate upside down in the tulle, form folds, tighten and tie the fabric with an elastic band. We cut the protruding ends of the tulle with scissors. Tie a satin ribbon on top of the elastic.

You can put a wide lace before tying a satin ribbon, and then tie the ribbon. We tuck one end of the tape and glue it with hot glue, we do the same with the second end. It turns out actually a bow.

Glue a flower to the middle of our bow, then glue another flower on both sides. We process the ends of the tape with a lighter or candles. Then we raise the ends a little and also fix them with hot glue. We decorate our composition with pearl beads.

Our do-it-yourself wedding whipping plate is ready. I wish you to break it into many many pieces. Happiness and great prosperity!
