   What could be more romantic than a ceremony held in the month of Februrary? That’s what I decided to do, have a ceremony and reception filled with one of the most adorned symbols of love throughout our ceremony and reception party. I started it off with the loveliest tiara that I ran across online. In fact I found quite a few super accessories like gorgeous invitations that are perfect for the love theme I wanted. The invitations I sent out were little cards with two little silver hearts on the front. The inside was very pretty to look at, and it had everything printed out in there already when we received them, so all we had to do was write in the place and time and we were all set.
   Inviting people, of course, was just the first phase, so I went right from that onto setting up the overall look and feel of the wedding, and then gathering together the supplies and accessories to make it work. I bought large scarlet bows made of velvet to put on the church pews with a ribbon that would run from one pew to the next. The altar was beautifully decorated, with wonderful candle holders and candles, including our unity candle which was adorned with a heart made of red roses. There were also red and pink roses to help with the décor of the wedding site and red and white roses in my bridal bouquet. It may have been a touch extravagant, but I’ve always wanted to have doves released as we left the church building, so we did, and it I thought it was wonderful.
   This turned out to be one of the most wonderful hearts wedding ceremonies ever and our guests were so impressed with the releasing of the doves and all the flowers and hearts we had decorated the church with. I even wore a beautiful little heart diamond my mom and dad gave me for our wedding ceremony. I was pretty sure when I thought of this, that a heart weddings theme would be excellent, but I had no idea it would be this excellent. Not only was our ceremony beautiful, but so was our reception. There was a big red heart hanging just above the band and a cupid ice sculpter on the banquet table. Everything was perfect, right down to the wedding favor heart gifts we gave to our friends and family as thank you gifts.

The tables that our reception each had a floral arrangement of pink, red, and white roses with small hearts mixed in with them in the center of the table. We placed two hearts wedding candles on each table in order to create the ambiance of romance that I wanted to achieve, and they were accompanied by the what I considered to be the best place card holders available. I picked out small silver bells with handles in the form of a heart to give each of our guests as a present that would be a memento of our wedding. There were frosting hearts all around the bottom layer of our wedding cake, and each layer was decked out in pink and red roses all around. On top sat our very special keepsake hearts wedding cake topper made of white porcelain, which looked so elegant with all the other cake decorations.
Our entire wedding day called to mind love and Valentine’s Day, filled with flowers and hearts galore. Thank goodness for the world wide web, which certainly saved me a ton of time and hassle.
