What is it about old-looking keys that is so enticing? When I see an old skeleton key, I feel like it could open anything. It definitely unlocks my imagination!
I think old keys fit in perfectly as a theme in a wedding. Your new spouse "holds the key to your heart." Metaphorically speaking, the wedding itself is a key, unlocking a door into your future together.
For my sister Laura's wedding - I really wanted to incorporate keys. I decided to ask guests to give marriage advice to the couple with a "Keys to a Happy Marriage" vignette. I found great-looking keys at Michaels in the dollar bins (and sometimes they were 50% off!). I also found a jar of random keys at an estate sale. Antique stores would be great places to look, but it would take time to comb through them - which I didn't have.
I found simple paper cutouts at Michaels and tied them to the keys with pink and ivory ribbon.
I printed the title and instructions and put them in frames with fun paper behind them.
I found this at Hobby Lobby on sale and loved how it matched the theme and colors of this vignette.
This is the vignette in place at the reception. I found a branch outside and a small gold pot at an estate sale. I used Plaster of Paris to cement the branch into the pot and then put decorative diamonds at the top of the pot.
What "Keys to a Happy Marriage" advice would you write to the bride and groom?

The keys look amazing hanging on a branch.

Very creative and beautiful idea!

DeleteI never believed in love spells or magic until i met this spell caster once when i went to Africa in February this year on a business summit. I meant a man who’s name is (Great Matatan powerful Spell ), he is really powerful and could help cast spells to bring back one’s gone, lost, misbehaving lover and magic money spell or spell for a good job or luck spell .I’m now happy & a living testimony cos the man i had wanted to marry left me 3 weeks before our wedding and my life was upside down cos our relationship has been on for 4 years. I really loved him, but his mother was against us and he had no good paying job. So when i met this spell caster, i told him what happened and explained the situation of things to him. At first i was undecided, skeptical and doubtful, but i just gave it a try. And in 7 days when i returned to Sydney, my boyfriend (now husband) called me by himself and came to me apologizing that everything had been settled with his mom and family and he got a new job interview so we should get married. I didn’t believe it cos the spell caster only asked for my name and my boyfriends name and all i wanted him to do. Well we are happily married now and we are expecting our little kid, and my husband also got the new job and our lives became much better. His email is:( matatanspell@yahoo.com . )
