For a gift the bride and groom will never forget, make them a Special Day Rustic Frame. Not only will it fit the theme of their rustic wedding, but it's something they'll have around their house for years after the wedding ends. If you're planning the wedding, try making a few of these and filling them with pictures of the happy couple. They would look lovely as reception table centerpieces, or be the perfect details for around the guest book. The stunning intricacy of this frame is something the guests will never stop talking about.
