We know it can be a very tempting past time, scrolling through Etsy gazing longingly at all the wonderfully unique and personal wedding items the site has to offer. However, as much as we would love to, it’s not humanly possible to get anything done with your day whilst trying to see all the products available on Etsy. From décor to those oh-so-tiny name tags that you couldn’t possibly go without now that you’ve seen them, Etsy products can seem endless. If it’s something that looks DIY because you didn’t have the time or if it’s just for a unique, individual item, you can find it here. To save you some of the heartache on not getting a chance to see some of the best treats out there for your wedding day, we've done the searching for you. We have already compiled some of the things we love from Etsy in the past, and now we have gone ahead and chosen even more. Like we said, the list of perfect wedding décor items on Etsy truly is endless. Have a look at some of our favourites below.
Guest Books:
Why not decide on a more innovative version of the typical guest book? Instead of having a lace covered tome of pages, you could opt for a more personal book that represents your own style as a couple, either with a favourite colour and design of your names, or even better yet, if you want to decide on something a bit more ornate and individual, use props that people would not expect to sign. Like a world globe for people to spin and sign wherever the pen lands, or for a wooden chest full of little hearts with your guest initials on them. Whichever your own style, you can definitely make the guestbook your own with these favourites from Etsy.

Cutlery:
Wedding cutlery is the perfect option to both personalise your tables and impress your guests. Rather than allowing your guests to eat with normal knives and forks that they have seen a thousand times over in their lives, give them something much more pretty to look at. From adorable napkins with personal messages, to handmade, rustic looking cutlery pouches and toast glasses, you will love these new ways to revamp the table on Etsy.

Wedding Signage:
A huge trend that began when every bride started going rustic-chic crazy for her wedding theme, wedding signage is a decor that will not be going away anytime soon. Ideal for those country or summer garden weddings, weddings signs lend a sense of fun to the ceremony and party. You can say whatever you want, be it an announcement to get the party started or just a welcoming. And better yet, with these perfect signs from Etsy you might even be able to fool your guests into thinking you made them yourself. Maybe.

Confetti:
Who doesn't love throwing confetti at a wedding? It's one of the rare occasions where adults get to indulge in messing around with these shiny, glittering bursts of fun. Give it a grown-up feel with these playful push-pops full of the stuff. Even if you don't want actual confetti, you can choose a more romantic form of decorating your church exit by using cut out hearts with either dates, names or poetry on them. Take a look at all the way Etsy has only increased our love of confetti.

Ring/Card Holders:
On Etsy, we have found some truly romantic forms of transportation for your wedding rings - like that of the metaphoric and heart-melting puzzle piece to join the pair. However, it's not just the rings that will need looking after that night either. Another thing you might need to consider is where you will be putting all the congratulatory cards that family members and friends will no doubt be throwing your way. Have a look at these unique ways to have the cards on display or tucked away neatly, all after you've said a huge thank you of course.

Wedding cake toppers:
We love looking at how unique and individual cake toppers are becoming everyday, and we're pretty sure were not alone in this love either. From initials and glitter to cute cartoons and animals, there are multiple and endless ways to adorn your cake in your favourite way. Just take a look at these few that we picked out.

Wedding Party Gifts:
It's always a lovely sentiment to give your wedding party a little token of thanks - either before, during or after the wedding itself. Both bridesmaids and groomsmen have gone along and happily helped you out in every little detail that you needed them for. Let them know that their help and patience has not gone unnoticed by gifting them with something sentimental and valuable to your wedding day - like monogrammed shaving kits or personalised 'will you be my bridesmaid?' gifts. We even picked out one or two gifts for the bride and groom too.

Decor:
This is one section we have no doubt that brides everywhere have thoroughly searched and filtered through to see what they want at the wedding. However, just in case you missed a few, we have chosen some of our favourites here, from a bottle bank ring toss to those classic marquee letters.

Wedding Favours:
This is the part of the wedding where the bride and groom can get as creative and thankful as they want. Wedding favours can be funny, they can be cute or they can be so romantically heartbreaking, it's a choice entirely up to you. You can fashion a wedding favour out of literally anything, from a chocolate sweet to a matchbox. Take a look at a few particular unique ones that caught our eye here.
