Happy Friday everyone! After a long week, we’re ready to hit the beach this weekend…which got us naturally thinking about all the beach weddings coming up this summer. If sandy, sunny nuptials sound like a tropical dream, we’ve put together a few must-haves that let you celebrate in style!
Let’s tackle centerpieces first. Beach weddings can range from chic and casual to refined elegance. Whatever your style, use your natural surroundings as your decor manual. Simple touches like natural sugar starfish (also work great for invitations and place card holders), tabletop tiki torches, or even natural driftwood branches used as table decorations play up on the beachy vibe. Charger plates add a pop of color and texture to your table scape in pretty beach colors such as aqua blue charger plates, ocean blue charger plates. Or embrace beach chic style with rattan chargers in brick brown, honey brown, or sand brown.
With a carefree and relaxed vibe, beach weddings often leave guests with a feeling of not wanting to return home to the “real world” right away. Therefore, give your guests mementos that will remind them of their seaside vacation. Candies in starfish burlap favor bags or personalized favor bags, personalized tote bags, and key chain favors such as starfish chains, mini flip flops are always favorites.
Finally, event decorations can really tie your whole celebration together. Play off the natural beauty of the sea and sand, and palm trees and tropical flowers. You can choose big decor pieces for maximum impact such as seashell driftwood garlands, driftwood garlands, tiered chandeliers in blue capiz shell, parasols, and personalized photo backdrops.
In end, a little creativity and inspiration will go a long way to creating the beach wedding of your dreams! Check out our Pinterest board for more ideas!

Christmas is just around the corner, but we’re already excited for the 2013 wedding season! If you’re planning a wedding for 2013, don’t miss out on these top trends that will tie your perfect day all together!
1. Paper Lanterns
Paper lanterns are perfect for almost any type of wedding – from budget-friendly to extravagance, to indoor or outdoor – this key piece of decor makes creative lighting simple. Part of the fun of paper lanterns is that the options are endless – you can stick to just one color, try different shades of the same color, or get colorful by color-blocking different hues. An added bonus – paper lanterns can function as centerpieces as well!
2. Colorful Charger Plates
Dressing the table is arguably one of the most important pieces of your wedding decor. Solid color charger plates were all the rage in 2012 and the trend shows no signs of disappearing. Because you can find charger plates in practically any color, it’s easy to find one that fits with your style. Set against white linens, brightly colored charger plates immediately tell your guests it’s time to party.
3. Tissue Paper Pom Poms
We’re starting to see a trend here: color. Whether you use tissue paper pom poms as an alternative to paper lanterns, or in addition to, this decor trend adds casual elegance to any event. You can even use them at your bridal shower and then again at the wedding – a budget friendly way to go big on decor.
4. Kissing Balls
Here’s another trend we’re noticing: hanging decor. We love kissing balls because they’re an easy yet decorative way to instantly dress up your outdoor event. Hang these from trees, shepherd hooks, or the backs of chairs. Extremely detailed, kissing balls create stunning decor for any event.
5. Hanging Crystal Garlands
Looking to add some glam to your wedding without going overboard? 2013 is all about subtle touches of glamour. Hanging crystal garlands are perfect to use on centerpieces, especially on gorgeous manzanita trees. Mix and match colors on the same centerpiece for an unexpected look.
6. Paper Fans/Sandalwood Fans
Summer is still far off, but it’s not too early to start planning your summer wedding. Many couples like to take advantage of the gorgeous weather and hold their wedding and/or reception outside. However, whether your guests will be seated in a tent or not, make sure they’re prepared for the hot summer sun. Paper and sandalwood fans are perfect because they’re both functional and decorative!
7. Raffia Fans
If you’re looking for more texture in your fans, then look no further than raffia fans. These days you can find raffia everywhere – furniture, party ware, and rugs!
8. Rhinestone Ribbon Rolls
Here’s another trend that’s here to stay for a while – rhinestone ribbon rolls. If you’re a DIY kind of bride, then this is a 2013 must-have. These rhinestone rolls are easy to cut and to add adhesive to on the back. Let your imagination run wild with this glam decor. Some of our favorite ideas: wrap around candle centerpieces, use them on place cards, decorate your gift box, and more!
9. Custom Cupcake Toppers
Custom cupcake wrappers were everywhere in 2012 and don’t expect them to go anywhere in 2013! Customized cupcake toppers are a fun way to add personalization to your special day. Use these toppers to create messages for your save-the-date cards, engagement photos, and reception dessert table!
10. Burlap
One of our favorites – burlap is a must for any vintage, shabby chic event. Perfect for both indoor and outdoor events, burlap adds and instant touch of rusticity.

Being in the wedding industry gives us insight to trends and popular wedding inspiration. We are lucky enough to see trends in all different aspects because we attend a wide variety of items. It is fun for us to see weddings that feature our wedding supplies and centerpiece ideas. Recently, we had the opportunity to attend a family member’s wedding. They chose the popular peacock theme for their wedding theme. We were blown away by the number of creative ideas they had for decorating with peacock feathers and colors!

The key to decorating a peacock theme wedding is to use purple, teal and blue accents to compliment your peacock feathers. A bold peacock theme is perfect for an outdoor wedding. Ideally, the bold colors would be great for a fall wedding but you can decorate with purples and blues for a summer wedding as well. Here are a few great ideas for how to decorate with peacock feathers.
Peacock Theme Stationery
From your wedding invitations to your table placecards, incorporate a colorful peacock theme. Ask your wedding invitation designer to use purple, teal and blue to create a color theme that can be combined with a peacock feather. If you’re creating DIY wedding invitations, attach a peacock feather to each invitation and tie with a blue or green ribbon. Your three dimensional invitations will memorable and set the tone for a peacock theme event. Incorporate a bold outdoor theme with your peacock theme by hosting your wedding at a winery. Instead of using a peacock placecard, decorate your table numbers with a wine bottle lable. A few wine bottles, one with a peacock label and one with a table number can create a tall centerpiece display when you light them up with votives or tapered candles.
Peacock Centerpieces
For a creative twist on traditional centerpiece displays use tall glass pillars filled with peacock feathers. Instead of filling the vases with water and flowers, place the flowers or arrangements on top of the vases. Incorporate a few peacock feathers into your purple and green floral arrangements. You can put rocks or water pearls at the bottom of each vase to stabilize the cylinder. The tall glass centerpieces are easily see through so they don’t block conversation between guests. Once you’ve created these gorgeous centerpieces, finish the look with a matching tablecloth. The beauty of having a peacock theme is you can accent with blue, green or purple to match your favorite colors. If you choose purple, you can use purple tablecloths with teal or blue charger plates. Instead of using water pearls, you can fill glass vases with diamond décor to create a glamorous centerpiece. A table set with diamond table décor and peacock feathers is a fun way to incorporate bling and feathers together.
When it comes to choosing wedding themes, it is important to choose a style and theme that matches your distinct personalities. A peacock themed wedding is the perfect way to stand out and create a one-of-a-kind wedding. Don’t forget to surprise your groom with a peacock garter and fun peacock wedding accessories. For other accessories and bridesmaid dresses, use purple and blues for fun accent colors. We loved seeing all the fun ways to put together a bright peacock theme wedding.

Did you know that more brides are choosing to have their wedding ceremony and reception in the same location? In addition to cutting wedding costs and combining locations, couples are also choosing to lower their costs by reducing the number of guests. Transportation has definitely been taken into consideration in the recent years, with gas prices being so outrageous in parts of the country. The fact that brides want their wedding to be closer to home and eliminate the need for transportation in between shows the budget conscious decisions brides are making. Fortunately, creating an intimate wedding with fewer guests in a comfortable setting is completely doable with DIY wedding tips and ideas from bloggers.

Using coordinating table linens and tableware is a great way to create a uniform look that dresses up your backyard area. White is the easiest way to create an elegant area without having to splurge for remodeling. Adding special charger plates will make your tables look special without having to purchase dinnerware sets for each table. Your every day plates will look classic and dressy when you place them on coordinating charger plates. This is a great way to prepare a backyard area for a special DIY wedding.

Do you want to know how to dress up your next dinner party? There’s no reason you have to wait until the holidays or a wedding to introduce brand new charger plates into your decor. Using decorative charger plates is a great a way to create a elegant display without breaking the bank on new dishes. Especially since you can use practically any color dish on top! My favorite are the variety of blue charger plates Koyal Wholesale carries. These plates are lightweight and would look great with blue china.

How pretty would these decorative charger plate table settings be for a holiday party? Vintage china is a great way to collect pretty dishes that are one of kind. Then use a solid charger plate to complete the look with a uniform color to draw the mismatched plates together. Make it a great excuse to have a fun holiday dinner party or invite all your best gal pals over for brunch! To accent all the plates I would definitely use white table linens and a complementary table napkin. What are you favorite tips for holiday party decor?

You”re eating dinner on a super cute disposable paper plate thinking: what is a Charger Plate anyways? Well, brace yourself. There are so many different words and names for the variety of table setting options that this might get confusing at first. The charger plate is also known as the chop plate, under plate or ‘service plate’, because it serves as a decorative under plate for your main dishes. While, you might not be watching the news and enjoying Tuesday night dinner in a formal living room, like the Kardashians or Royal family, the charger plate can be used with any place setting to create a decorative table display. Charger plates can be china, metal, wood and plastic. For long term use and every day tables, a high quality acrylic charger plate is ideal. Can you imagine breaking one glass charger plate and having to buy an entire set just to replace it?
The charger plate used to be for a formal wedding setting but with more affordable pricing and a variety of color options, they’re quickly being incorporated into every day party use. My personal favorite look is to create a fun table setting using a mix and match of two different colors. Top with white dinner plates and a fun printed table linen napkin and your party table has depth and personality. A formal party would warrant a charger plate, dinner plate and salad plate but that’s three times the amount of dishes my wonderfully patient dish washer helper fiance likes doing, so skip the salad plate if it’s not necessary. Why test his patience when guests can use one plate for the salad and main course?
Another bonus: when you’re having a served meal the charger plate works as a place setting. When you’re sending your guests to sit at their tables their places can be marked with colorful plate rather than an empty spot. Create a do-it-yourself look for your next dinner party by placing a charger plate with a napkin at each place setting. A handwritten name card with each napkin works to create a beautiful display that doesn’t have to be moved or picked up before the main dish can be presented. In my opinion, there is not more obnoxious then having to switch around plates for your server to give you the plate you’re supposed to be eating off of. The charger plate simply stays on the bottom and the dinner plate rests on top! I told you dinnerware can get complicated.
For a couple examples, here are the most popular looks. First, the gold charger plate creates a formal place setting.

Second, a bright colored plate works wonders to showcase a decorative dinner plate. Antique or patterned plates paired with a complementary charger plate and napkin can make a table setting more formal with very little involved. If your grandmother passed down the family china and you need a way to incorporate it into your holiday party, pair it with a Royal Blue Charger Plate.

Both of these looks are trendy and creative ways to decorate a fun party setting. Don’t be afraid to mix and match for more variety and use different textures and patterns to add personality. Plus, decorating the table setting adds to the food and flower presentation.
Have fun and be sure to send me your photos: Claire(at)koyal.com!

 A charger plate is a terrific way to add color and texture to your dinner table. Though chargers are often associated with very formal dinner affairs, they can be used for all occasions to add an affordable, sophisticated elegance to your hosting repertoire. One comment we often hear from brides is, where can we find 100 affordable gold charger plates? Koyal Wholesale (www.koyalwholesale.com) now presents gold charger plates at a mere $1.67 each! And the fun doesn’t stop there! Our chargers come in a variety of shapes and colors – bulk square chargers, bulk round chargers, red chargers, purple chargers, bronze, silver and even green! And most of these beautiful, high quality acrylic chargers are just $1.67 a piece!
A charger plate is usually larger than a dinner plate but smaller than a food-serving platter. Designed to accompany fine china, the plates protect table linens from dinner plates and bowls. They are not, however, intended to be used as dinner plates themselves! The plate should be set when guests arrive, placed one inch (2.54 cm) from the edge of the table and between the silverware setting. Some hosts remove it before any food is served, but more commonly, soup and first courses are placed on the charger which is cleared before the entrée is served. Most agree however, that the charger should be removed before the dessert course. Are you incorporating chargers on your big day?
