Also used as engagement trays or betrothal trays, these ring trays generally fall into a few main categories: silver, mirrored, and modern trays. After deciding on the style of the tray, the next topic is how to decorate these trays. You've received a marriage proposal, the families have met, and now it's time for the betrothal and engagement. Everyone has the same question on their mind: how to decorate an engagement tray? The answers to this question vary greatly. First come decorations made at home. At the same time, major party and decoration companies also decorate homes and rooms for such events, as well as the materials to be used in the event. However, many young women want to decorate their own ring trays on this happy and special day. If the bride-to-be is too busy or stressed, this sacred decoration duty falls to her sisters or cousins.
Engagement tray decoration materials for those who love simplicity and understated elegance
You can choose your engagement tray to be mirrored, colorful, silver-embroidered, meaning ornate, or you can choose a plain, completely understated, simple, and stylish tray. You then do the decoration according to the features of the tray. Of course, if you wish, you can choose an ornate and flashy engagement tray and keep the decoration simple to avoid complete clutter. The materials for a simple engagement tray decoration are, besides the tray itself, dried real flower petals (you can use fresh flowers if you prefer, but dried flowers look cooler), a glue gun, and a few ribbons. You can create the concept you desire with these materials. You can determine the flower petals and the ribbon according to the outfit you wear at the engagement. Place the flower petals on the tray. You can scatter them over it to create a natural look. If you don't want the petals to shift, you can apply a very small amount of glue from the glue gun under the petals and stick them to the tray. Besides the long ribbon you use to tie the engagement rings together, you can also tie ribbons to the handles of the tray to achieve a pleasant appearance.
