Whether your wedding is outdoors or in, a simple tea light in a mason jar can add a dash of romance to your décor. Stay safe and choose a flameless candle which will give you the same effect as a traditional candle without the danger of an open flame. Or mix in some modern with your vintage jars, by using LED lights.

It’s always nice to thank your guests for attending your event and a wedding is no exception. By providing your guests with a “take home” it creates a real tangible way for them to hold on to the memories. While we love this project, we’d suggest using a Masontops Chalk Top for your mason jars – your handwritten labels will add a personal touch and then your guests will be able to re-label the jars when they re-use them at home.
