In the midst of the wedding planning details get left out. Most brides think of tables and chairs, buffet vs.sit down, indoor or outdoor, simple or frilly, white or ivory. Most brides skimp on the details that make the wedding unique. These are the details that your guests will remember. Every wedding can have centerpieces, chair covers, chair ties, a wedding cake, the little touches are what will set your wedding apart from others. Here are some ideas:
1. Make your favors part of the table decor. Use monogrammed or colored boxes stack them up in the middle of the table or down the table. Candy bar favors have become very popular, so put the candy in various glass containers on the guest tables and it will make a conversation piece for your guests.
2. Beverage bars. Most weddings have wine and beer bars, especially if dinner is being served. Instead of a wine and beer bar have a beverage bar, or add a special beverage to your wine and beer bar. Make the beverage a special one like a Jones soda, or a cherry limeade or a classic shirley temple. Something non-alcoholic but more special than iced tea and water.
3.Tell your guests of the details. Guests are usually seated about 30 minutes before the processional. Give them something to read and learn about your wedding. On the back of the program tell your guests of some details to look for and details that make your wedding special to you and your groom. Some examples:
"Welcome to our wedding! We have customized our wedding to be a truly unique event:
The bride's bouquet consist of 4 small bouquets which each have a special fortune. Make sure to catch a fortune at the reception!
The groom's cufflinks reflect his favorite superhero, superman.
The flowers in the bouquets and centerpieces are the same breed of hydrangea and orchids that the bride's parents grow at their home
The cake design consists of the bride and groom's monogram in a unique pattern
The bride and groom participated on their favorite summer activity to create the favors, canned peaches!
