Themes! We are having a New York themed wedding (he proposed to me there and we're going back as part of our honeymoon - LOVE the place!). Has anyone done or is anyone planning something similar? I'm trying to find table decorations! Our tables will be named after NYC landmarks.

Hello, I have had a look online and it is quite hard to find new york styled stuff! You could do like a vase with the new york skyline stuck around the outside and have fairy lights battery operated inside so they sort of make it stand out? I bought a skyline sticker from aliexpress and done the outline of my table up with it. You could get little NY taxis and make them as name card holders?

There's New York props for photo booths on etsy. If you put New York party into Pinterest it brings up a few ideas. It depends how classy you want to go, you can have foam Statue of Liberty headbands and yellow taxi napkins

Why don't you do Art Deco/gatsby/broadway style
Maybe do invites like a broadway ticket
Loads of stuff on Pinterest xxx

Friends of mine had a travel theme and had pictures of themselves in the centre of them in those places, like Venice, ect with a jar with lights in too, on a mirror circle. It looked great and easy to put together. Maybe a picture of you both in NYC and some pics of landmarks in NYC too?

Love this - NYC is so awesome. How about a ice sculpture Statue of Liberty, I would have yellow and grey as the colour scheme. Each table can be a landmark. For canapés and drinks reception you could have mini bagels with Manhattan cocktails. Use pictures of yourselves in nice frames as decor on cake table / guest book table. An NYC cake with the skyline around it would look fabulous. Favours could be I ️ NYC mug / keyring / pen with your names and date on Have a wonderful wedding xxx

My sister in law did the same! It was fantastic fun too. I made the table plan using Publisher and downloaded a free vector from the Internet, used Broadway font and then had it printed onto board. A friend of hers also made wooden cutouts of the empire state, statue of liberty and yellow cabs as the place settings and favours.

My cousin got engaged in NY and they had their colour scheme as Tiffany Blue :)

If you took photos of the different buildings/attractions that you saw last time, you could put them in frames with a few red, white and blue flowers. We came back from New York on Monday. It's an amazing place. I took lots of photos if you'd like me to post them on here so that you can copy them. X
