While out shopping with one of my good friends, she mentioned that one day she would love to have monogrammed towels with her and her husband’s initials. What could be more romantic than starting your new life together with matching towels? Well, how about adding your initials to some aspects of your wedding!

Your invitations and Save the Dates set the tone for your entire day, so if you’re thinking of adding your intials, these would be a great place to start. Check out these adorable monogrammed invitations from the Event Essentials. Their stationary line even includes matching thank you cards and menus, where you can customize them in your colors and pick out different styles. Oh, and for those of you who don’t like the way your new initials look together (e.g. RIP or some other 3 letter combination that is probably inappropriate to post!), you can simply include your first names with a prominent last intial. Fancy, eh?

Ok, I’m going to do some shameless self promoting now, but you really can’t blame me since Beau-coup does offer a pretty great selection of monogrammed items!

To spruce up your wedding reception, without going over board, add some monogrammed napkins to the mix. These come in all colors, and look great without breaking the bank. Also, consider adding a silver initial cake topper. While some cake toppers look a little gaudy, these are pretty sleek and won’t detract from that scrumptious concoction.

And of course, what would a great wedding be without some favors? Try these monogrammed petit fours or embroidered jewelry bags for your bridesmaids (a portion of those sales go to fight breast cancer too) and I can guarantee there won’t be any complaints!

Ok, and by no means am I encouraging monogram overload, but seriously, if you do decide to go a little monogram happy how about some adorable aisle runners or parasols that Wendy from Wendy’s Bridal Affairs posted about. Also, how cute would it be to have some wall monograms throughout the reception hall? Or how about using en embroidered hankie as your something blue? You could really do anything!
