Wedding Treasures Wedding treasures range from shower and wedding favors such as photos with a mirror back, wedding cake fortune charms, all types of boxes made from different materials that held a piece of the wedding cake, or candy, and napkin holders, candlesticks, rice carried in a net package, matches, and the list goes on. Also, very collectible are ephemera (paper goods) such as place cards, post cards, wedding invitations, announcements, wedding photos, memory books, scrap books and anything else that is associated with weddings that is paper related. After the wedding the bride gathered her most precious memories and assembled them in a shadow box. These boxes could have a wedding photo of the couple, along with the bridal veil and wax orange blossom coronet, gloves, hankies, slippers, flowers from her bouquet, and possibly the grooms’ boutonniere. I have chosen a few treasures from my collection which also include a silver plated bridal slipper under a glass dome, wedding rice in the original container, and a college from France celebrating a 25th wedding anniversary. Collectible treasures also encompass the brides trousseau which would include the bridal gown, and accessories, such as her gloves, bible, handkerchief, veil, slippers, garter, lingerie, nightdress, purse, and the coronet. (Please see Ruth Marcel’s wedding dress collection.) This list, and my photos, is only a small sample of wedding treasures that can be collected. Click on Thumbnail to See Larger Photo |
