Where in Maine can I purchase my wedding supplies?

I definitely recommend the iParty Store for theme based decorations. There are several locations of stores and they have such a large variety of items. There is one that is located in close proximity to The Maine Mall.

A couple other places that offer party supplies as well is Paper Party House located in Westbrook and One Stop Party Shoppe located in South Portland.

For your wedding specific items such as your ring pillow, aisle runner, guest book and other items like this, I would purchase online. I am an affiliate of Amazon and you can check out my store here: Maine wedding ideas

Tips:

• Do not go overboard with your decorations, you can keep them simple.
• Do bargain shop for decorations; check out places like Mardens and Christmas Tree Shoppe.
• Make your own wedding favors to add a personal touch to them.

Tidbit: Don’t forget to keep a little extra money tucked away to help you with purchasing these wedding supplies and any other last minute purchases to keep you from having to charge them!
