7). Signposts

Wedding signs are a big trend for 2016 weddings, and this is great news for Alice in Wonderland weddings! Feel free to get involved in some wedding DIY and create your own wedding sign using a framed chalk board and write your favourite Alice in Wonderland quotes on it. But if DIY isn't your thing, have a little look around on Etsy and you're guaranteed to find something you love!
