As we finish out the end of the
year, it’s time for us to begin looking back at emerging trends that 2014 has
brought us. On pinterest, tumblr, facebook, and even in our cupboards, we are
seeing millions of mason jars. Each decorated in clever ways; spray painted,
bejeweled, wrapped, filled with sand, candles, and anything else you could
possibly think of.  Originally used for
food packaging and candles, mason jars have started to infiltrate the wedding
scene, bringing with it rustic centerpieces, modern party favors, creative
drink holders, and many more. Here are a few awesome uses of the mason jar we’ve
seen!

 

These beautiful mason jars were the
key centerpieces at our last wedding in the Boettcher mansion. Using a variety
of burlap, pastel colored ribbon, and gold glitter, our beautiful bride livened
up these glass jars, transforming them into an iconic representation of her
marriage: simple, classic, and something to be remembered.
Pinterest, of course, also features
several interesting suggestions to simplify and reduce expenses on your wedding
day. We came across this one that was especially adorable!
Mason jars are a terrific container
for wedding favors, or take home gifts for the guest. As you can see, this
smores idea was ingenious, and perfectly matched the cozy theme of the wedding,
leaving guests with something to take home to remember their night, and the
note of love from the bride and groom is a simple keepsake.
Other suggestions include drink
holders; a cute and fun way to serve delicious and potentially personalized
cocktails!

(Mason jars can even be
personalized with names and your wedding date!)

Our personal favorite were these
hanging candles:

A sophisticated look to complement
an outdoor wedding, or even an indoor reception ceremony to follow the theme of
natural and simple.
