Ideas for a Spanish Wedding Reception
Now this is the part that you can really express who you are and how your feel. Reinforce your Spanish wedding reception style with creative decorations. Flowers, balloons, bows, and candles. Set up and decorate a separate table for the guest book and another for the gifts and cards. Fans (abanicos) are a popular Spanish and folklorico motif and could be used to design centerpieces or fold napkins in a fan shape.
Miniature sombreros are really fun and a colorful idea for your Spanish wedding reception. If there are children who will be present at your wedding reception, amuse them with a piñata, which you can make yourself or purchase from a party supply or craft store Favors are distributed to guests as a parting memto of the wedding to thank them for attending.
Favors also are a way to share the gook luck of the wedding couple. Typical favors include candies, matchbooks, notepads, perfume bottles, and crouched items. Another decoration and favor ides from Puerto Rico centers around a doll dress as a bride.
Tradition calls for placing ribbon favors(capias) on the doll’s dress. During the Spanish wedding reception, the bride removes these ribbon favors from the doll and pins one on each of the wedding guests.
The ribbons generally are printed with the bride’s and groom’s names and wedding date.
