Send children on a photo scavenger hunt with this game of i-spy!
They have to spot a variety of typical wedding day occurrences / outfits and tick them off on their list. This works really well for older children 7-11 who will be able to do this independently but younger children will need adult help or help from older siblings.

Whether you’re planning an epic, chateau wedding or decorating your backyard for an intimate, virtual affair there are a few decor elements that go a long way.
While banners & bunting may be the ultimate party decor, ribbons are their elegant, understated cousin. The truth is, we’re obsessed with ribbons here at Bridal Musings. Wrap them around your bridal bouquet, let them flutter in the wind knotted to posts at your beach ceremony, tie a little pop of velvet around your waist or put a bow on those invitations.
