5 Fun Ways To Personalise Your Wedding Day
Every couple strives to find ways to make their wedding day special and unique. In an era where throwing tradition out the window isn’t frowned upon but actively encouraged, doing what feels right for you on your big day can help you tailor the day exactly how you want. It’s okay to break from tradition and create a wedding day that truly reflects who you are as a couple.
So, in what fun and unconventional ways can you make your wedding unique yet perfect for you?
Choose Your Colour
Your wedding should reflect your unique preferences, regardless of what they are. If black is your colour, then black bridesmaid dresses or even a black wedding dress can perfectly capture your essence. If you’re a fan of pink or red, then incorporate these colours in the small details to tie in your signature colour throughout the decor, accessories, dress code, and cake. Embrace what you love and make it a part of your special day.
Add Your Hobbies or Favourite Things
Can your pet be a part of your big day? Why not (venue dependent, of course)? Love Harry Potter, or you’re both huge Marvel Fans? What’s actually stopping you from incorporating these things into your big day? Even the smallest things can tie your interests into your big day. It could be that you have an eye for photography, so adding pictures of guests you have taken to your seat plans is a nice touch. Setting up a photo shoot with props or booths would work well for you. Love theme parks and adrenaline events? Why not bring the funfair to you and create a carnival theme for your wedding day? Let your creativity run wild and make your wedding day truly unique.
Personalise It
Adding your initials or special items to your wedding decor can help you incorporate your lifestyle into your wedding day so it ties your day with what you enjoy. It can be done by adding pictures and creating a memory board; an excellent idea is to give guests cameras and/or mini printers to print out snaps they take on the day and create a wall collage as the event progresses for real time memories captured and displayed. It can be using your initials to form the decor, i.e. floral arrangements in both initials; light displays spelling out names and so on. Don’t be afraid to add your own stamp to the day.
Create Your Own Drinks Menu
Guests are not champagne people? Why not create your own cocktails or mocktails for your guests to enjoy instead? These drinks will be forever tied to your big day and synonymous with you, making the day a little bit more special.
Relationship Timeline
One great way to create a special and unique day is to walk guests through your history as a couple and embrace your journey thus far. Whether it is visual timelines adorning the reception area, leaving mementoes or notes on the table for guests to read as they move around the room, or including memories as a movie on a screen so people get to watch you fall in love up to your wedding and commit to each other, incorporating your relationship timelines can be an extra special touch for your big day.
