4 Easy DIYs That'll Bring the Beach to Your Big Day

Are you planning a seaside ceremony? Or maybe a beach club bash? Whether you're jetting off to the Caribbean or rounding up your nearest and dearest down by the nearest bay, we've got four can't-miss DIY ideas for your wedding day, made easy by Avery. Make waves (get it?) with these beachy personalized pieces, from programs to place cards. Make Sparks Fly with Fun Favors Because who doesn't love a good sparkler send-off? (Hello, photo opp!) This easy demo will teach you how to personalize these square labels, helping you match the labels to the right color scheme and patterns. Adhere the labels to matchbooks, punch holes in the covers, and attach them to sparklers with ribbon. The labels can also be used to decorate candy jars, candles, small buckets of shells, and other sweet favors. Keep Guests Cool with Fan Programs If your ceremony is outside, we've got an easy way to keep guests cool and comfortable while the sun's pounding down on your party. Print your wedding programs on postcards, then attach them to festive sticks to create custom fans or sun shades. The simple postcard template available on Avery.com can also be used to craft schedules of events for out-of-town guests, reception table numbers, or even thank-you notes. Bring the Sea to Your Centerpieces Looking for a creative way to display table numbers? Print all your numbers on these oval labels and adhere them to vases full of shells. (Ask the kids in your families to help collect them before the main event!) These super versatile labels can also be used on any other sort of packaging for favors or gifts. Pretty Up Your Place Cards Create the perfect place settings using tent cards or business cards. Opt for a beachy print and consider placing each card on a starfish or shell to make your place settings more unique! You can also punch a hole in each card and connect it with a ribbon to a piece of coral or another ocean-inspired trinket. Head to Avery for more crafty ideas and materials!
