The Art and Soul of Mexican Celebrations

Papel picado means 'perforated paper'. It is a cherished folk art tradition from Mexico that has been practised for centuries. The process is a remarkable display of skill. Artisans stack layers of tissue paper or plastic and use special chisels and a hammer to punch out intricate designs. This meticulous work requires a steady hand, a creative eye, and years of practice.

For weddings, the designs are particularly romantic. They often feature hearts, doves, flowers, and clasped hands. These symbols represent love, peace, and the start of a new life together. By choosing papel picado for your wedding, you are not just hanging a decoration. You are embracing a beautiful cultural art form and celebrating the love and skill woven into every flag.

Decorations as Unique as Your Love Story

We believe your wedding decor should be a reflection of you. That is why our collection includes a wonderful range of options, including bespoke, personalised banners.

Personalised Papel Picado: Make your decorations truly your own by adding your names and wedding date. Our artisans will carefully incorporate your details into the design. You can also choose your exact colour palette to perfectly match your wedding theme. This creates a one-of-a-kind decoration that also serves as a beautiful keepsake after the day is over.

Ready-to-Buy Designs: For those on a tighter timeline, our ready-to-buy wedding garlands are a stunning choice. Featuring classic wedding motifs, these banners are available in elegant all-white or a joyful mix of colours. They ship quickly from our warehouses, providing a beautiful and convenient decorating solution.

For Every Venue and Every Vision

Our wedding papel picado is designed to be versatile. We offer two material choices to suit your specific venue and needs.

  • Tissue Paper Banners: For indoor venues, our traditional tissue paper banners are a perfect choice. They are lightweight and delicate, creating a soft, romantic effect as they float in the air.
  • Waterproof Plastic Banners: Planning an outdoor wedding or reception? Our durable plastic banners are the ideal solution. They feature the same intricate designs but are weather-resistant, ensuring they look perfect come rain or shine.

More Than Just a Wedding Decoration

While perfect for your big day, the beauty of papel picado extends beyond the wedding. The all-white banners can be used for other elegant occasions, such as anniversaries, christenings, or formal parties. The colourful designs are perfect for bringing joy to birthday parties and summer fiestas.

After the wedding, your personalised banners become a cherished memento. Hang a section in your home as a beautiful reminder of your celebration. They can also be repurposed for future anniversary parties, carrying the story of your love forward.

This collection offers everything you need to create a breathtaking visual impact. From long garlands to transform your venue to personalised waving flags for your guests, we are here to help you celebrate in style.
