Wedding Keepsakes

Wedding Keepsakes for Very Important Brides

I wonder if many people know about the tradition of giving wedding keepsakes or charms to the Bride for good luck?  Different cultures use different charm shapes as symbols of good luck.

  • A horseshoe shape is a traditional keepsake.  Carry the horseshoe with the ‘arms’ turned upwards.  This prevents the ‘good luck’ from spilling out!  Carry the horseshoe with the ‘arms’ turned downwards, the good luck is said to spread everywhere the Bride walks.
  • A miniature shoe or slipper shape is also a popular wedding favour.  Also, place a coin in the shoe or slipper for extra good luck!
  • Tiny locks and keys are attached to the bridal bouquet.  These little ‘love locks’ make delightful decorations.  Furthermore, they are also safer than attaching a padlock to a bridge or other public structure!
  • Another kind of attachment to the bridal bouquet is that of miniature portrait charms of  family members who are not present at the ceremony.  These may include loved ones, who although having passed away, are present, honoured and loved.

Wedding Keepsakes Made with Love

I make special wedding keepsake favours or charms for very important Brides.  Book Glenda, the Really Good Brisbane Celebrant, and you are a VIB, very important Bride!

All brides should have at least one good-luck wedding keepsake or charm, and so I make my signature satin hearts.  No two hearts are the same!  I decorate each heart to compliment the style and colours to appeal to the bride.

I give these unique bridal favours to Brides as good-luck keepsakes to take into their married life.  These truly are unique wedding mementos for Brides that I make with love and care.  These ‘love hearts’ are not for sale!  Book Glenda J Ashleigh, Brisbane’s Very Good Celebrant for your special bridal keepsake!

N & A Wedding Cleveland

The high level of organisation and straight forward directions made a ceremony that flowed and proceeded as planned.  The Celebrant's intelligent banter, jokes and lovely words ensured happy (and relaxed as can be) Bride and Groom allowing them to enjoy the day with few worries.  N & A Wedding, Cleveland

Three people asked me, that when their time comes, could I do a similar service for them using Glenda and the venue. Everyone thought it was suited to my Mum perfectly.   G Celebration of Life, Carina
