Instead of letting a wedding planner turn your wedding into another sausage factory event, use your imagination to make the event one-of-a-kind and really personalise it to you and your fiance.
Sassy Stationery
Your invitations are the first thing your guests see and should reflect your tastes, helping to set the theme of your wedding right form the start. If you were proposed to on a white sandy beach in the Caribbean, or in Paris, why not use an image reflecting this on your invites. Check out Scissor Paper Stone’s Snapshot range.
Get family and friends involved
The great thing about weddings (other than the obvious!) is that it brings people together. People love to be involved, so if you have a friend or family member that has a skill or talent, utilize it! If you’re aunt does flower arranging, ask her to do the bouquets and arrangements; if your brother’s in a band, ask him to do the music — little touches like this help to personalise your wedding and make the day even more special.
Catering with a twist
Rather than having the standard wedding meal, try to think of something that means something to you. If you have a favourite restaurant, why not ask them to do the food; if you have Czech heritage, duck and dumplings could be the main course!
Dress to impress
Let’s face it, a lot of wedding dresses are pretty run of the mill these days — why not make yours stand out with a personal twist! If green is your favourite colour, why not dress in green? It’s your choice!
Sporty Transport
A limousine is lovely, but why not do something a bit different and depart the church or reception in something that really represents you as a couple. Some fun examples include a double-decker bus; scooter; vintage cab; boat — have fun with it!
