Canada Wedding Decoration Ideas
Brides in Canada can choose to have a traditional wedding
celebration or opt for the Native Canadian wedding celebration.
These unique celebrations are sure to be the talk of guests for
some time after the wedding.
A popular Canada wedding decoration for the Native Canadian
bride is the cake topper. These aren’t the traditional bride and
groom; the cake toppers can be a teepee, dream catcher,
feathers, wedding vase or a Native Canadian couple in their
native dress. These cake toppers can be made of glass, sandstone
or resin.
Another traditional Canada wedding decoration idea is a swag used
across tables or archways consisting of the Canadian maple leaf.
The leaf can be green or in the fall the leaves can be beautiful
fall colors. In 1834, the first St. Jean Baptiste Society in
North America made the maple leaf its emblem. Brides may also
use small Canadian flags to decorate their tables and may
incorporate it into their wedding cake if they choose.
Another idea for Canada wedding decoration is the use of
balloons on the reception tables. A balloon cloud can be made of
four to six helium balloons in the colors red and white and
anchored to the tables with small weights.
The table can also be decorated with red and white votive
candles in keeping with the theme. Brides should choose either
balloons or candles as lighted candles will make the balloons
pop. Tables can also be set with a white tablecloth and red
napkins for the guests.er
The main table for the bride and groom can be decorated with a
white tablecloth or you can do the Canadian flag theme and have
a tablecloth decorated with mini Canadian flags.
The bride may also choose to go all out with a Canadian theme
and make her party favors a Canada wedding decoration too. The
favor boxes can be either red or white with complementary
ribbons. The boxes can have small gifts or maple candy in the
traditional leaf shape.
Maple leaf soaps also make for a unique Canada wedding
decoration and party favor. They can be given to guests or to
the bridesmaids and matron of honor.
A bride can also have table decorations made of tiny Canadian
flags and votive candles. The instructions for this Canada
wedding decoration is as follows: for each favor you will need
two tulle circles found in the wedding area of your favorite
craft store, a votive candle holder, a votive candle, a mini
flag, red or white ribbon and small pearl sprays.
Simply place the candle in the votive holder and place it in the
center of two tulle circles. Wrap the candle with the tulle and
secure by tying with ribbon and a bow. Fluff out the tulle at
the top and insert a flag and a pearl spray in the hole in the
center of the tied ribbon and tulle.
This Canada wedding decoration can either be displayed
individually at the top of each person’s plate or gather in a
grouping and place inside an elevated dish in the center of the
table.
The bride and guests are sure to remember a Canadian themed
wedding and reception, whether the wedding is Native Canadian or
traditional. It is up to the bride to add her own unique touch
to the celebration.
