| A number of wedding accessories are virtually indispensable for creating the perfect storybook wedding.

These seemingly inconsequential details can be the stuff of which lifelong memories are made.
Some traditional wedding accessories that you may select to add charm to your marriage ceremony are guest book and pen sets, flower girl baskets, ring bearer pillows, garters, wedding favors and favor boxes, keepsake boxes, cake toppers, and toasting glasses. Fancy, decorated money bags also add a nice touch and offer stylish safekeeping and convenient transporting of monetary gifts.
Other attractive items such as place card holders, coasters, and bottle openers, in your choice of themes, can help unify your wedding décor, imparting a truly festive quality to your wedding celebration.
For an entire set of the most popular wedding accessories, the Splendor Collection is sure to impress. The set includes guest book and pen, flower girl basket, ring bearer pillow, and a pair of garters (one to throw, one to keep) in matching colors and design.
Each item in the collection features a white or ivory background and a colored ruched satin band (in your choice of colors to match your wedding motif) gathered in the center by a sparkling jeweled cluster. One garter is all white or all ivory.
Another collection that features multiple items is the Double Hearts Collection. This lovely set, which also includes guest book and pen, flower girl basket, ring bearer pillow, and a pair of garters, comes in all white or all ivory, including fancy heart and layered bow accents. Still another solid white or ivory collection which features the same items as the Double Hearts and Splendor sets is the Beach Collection.
This charming set features a delicate sprinkling of seashells and starfish alongside the understated bow accents that adorn each item, providing a lovely white-on-white or ivory-on-ivory elegance.
Several other similar collections featuring the white-on-white/ivory-on-ivory motif, as well as the same wedding accessories, are the Stephanotis Collection, embellished with small white flowers and pearl and crystal accents, and the Joy Collection, which is built around tri-loop bows with trailing ribbons that truly make this set look like a gift. As with the sets mentioned above, these collections also include guest book, pen, flower girl basket, ring bearer pillow, and garter set.
For a real change of pace, another beautiful ensemble is the Passion Collection.

Such colors as lilac, black, peridot, and clover will spark your imagination, giving you a wide range of creative shades from which to build your wedding theme. The oversized, layered half-bow that adorns this collection is placed jauntily on the diagonal, creating an elegance and sophistication that would be hard to match.
The Cosmos Collection adds its own unique variety of floral beauty that makes it perfect for spring weddings. Highlights of this charming design are a white background accented with layered sash featuring floral print on matching solid color in your choice of Tangerine or Horizon (blue).
