Depending on what’s inside the terrarium, you can create a minimalist vibe, a bright and colourful atmosphere, or a rustic look! You can also opt for big glass bowls or small glass cubes. Whatever you decide, it’ll be a great wedding décor, regardless if it’s an indoor or outdoor wedding venue.

Simple yet unique and highly personalisable, origami double as decorations that can spruce up your wedding ceremony and souvenirs that your guests can take home.

From butterflies to roses, master them all with step-by-step folding instructions readily available online. Alternatively, to spare yourself the hassle, you can also purchase pre-folded origami, some of which come in more sophisticated shapes and designs.

Origami is also symbolic, with certain designs representing specific sentiments and well wishes. For example, paper cranes stand for happiness, good luck, and peace. Choose your own unique shapes according to the wishes you have for your marriage, and use them as place cards or hanging centrepieces.

What is a wedding celebration without the throwing of confetti? Over the years, couples have included their own spin and created their unique confetti. Some couples have gone the environmental route by adding flower petals and leaves, while others have opted for eco-friendly glitter combined with handmade paper. In fact, you can even create a confetti bar where your guests can pick and create their own confetti! However, do make sure to check with your wedding venue on its policy for confetti beforehand.

4. Umbrellas
