Charming Cherry Blossoms

The simplicity and beauty of the cherry blossom makes them a perfect flower and decorative accessory to use in your spring or summer wedding. It's easy to spend hours online finding inspiration in all things cherry blossom!

At Ideal Favors, we have a few little gems that we hope will inspire you to plan the perfect cherry blossom themed wedding.

Picture how beautiful these rice paper parasols would look in your wedding photos. Have your wedding party walk down the aisle holding a cherry blossom parasol, or provide them for your guests to shelter them from the afternoon sun. Create your own favor tag and hang them from the bamboo handle for a sweet personalized message. Made from rice paper, the design is hand painted and the parasol can be found at http://www.idealfavors.com/ for only $10.00 each.

The cherry blossom design on this candle votive perfectly matches the parasol above. Handpainted on to a delicate rice paper, the motif is then added to the glass votive. A soft, frosted glow is created when a tealight or 2" votive is inserted.

And because good things come in 3's, wecan't leave out our cherry blossom paper lantern. Also, made of rice paper, with a handpainted design, these 14" lanterns are striking when strung from ceilings indoors, or tree branches outdoors.

Here are a few other photos that we fell in love with when we conducted our own cherry blossom search.
