Wedding Tips: Creating a Unique Wedding

Creating a memorable wedding is not an easy task. To be able to bring out uniqueness in your wedding, there are a couple of simple things you can do. The best way to start it is by asking yourself, how do you want your wedding to be remembered. Do you want to create a simple and elegant wedding party? Or you'd rather have a glamorous wedding that everyone will be talking about for years? The choice is up to you. Here are some tips you can use to have a one-of-a-kind wedding:

  • Prepare a color scheme that you can use as a guide to decorate your wedding. Favorite colors that are usually used are white, pink, silver, and gold. Use the color scheme to help you decide what color you will be using for your wedding dress, wedding decorations, flower arrangements, and invitations.
  • After you picked out your preferred color scheme, pick your wedding invitation. You can buy them at any cards store, or if you'd rather have a personalized touch, hire a design agency to make it for you. Don't forget to tell them about your wedding plan in general, so they will have a better feel about your important event. Don't forget to print extra invitations. If you made some mistakes in your writings, you can use these extra cards to replace it. And, you can always keep them and give it out later to other people you forgot to invite. Print at least 50% extra cards from your expected number of guests.
  • Hire a professional photographer to make your wedding album. Wedding album is a very important item, so, make sure you and your photographer already have the same idea about the concept of your wedding album. Combine normal shots with candid shots to give it a more unique feel.
  • Prepare a beautifully designed guest book. Ask your guest to write their wishes and congratulations note on the book. If you are hiring a videographer, ask them to leave their message to the camera too.
  • When decorating the tables for the wedding banquet, avoid placing big flower arrangement in the middle of the table. It will block the communication between guests. If you want to put candles, use the small floating candles instead of the usual one. Don't forget to decorate the table according to you color scheme. To give it more unique touch, instead of using papers to write the names of your guests on the table, try using other items. Use dark chocolate block as a base and write their names with white chocolate on top of it. You can also use fruits like apple or orange.

The most important thing in creating a unique wedding, is to make sure that it represents your story and personality. So, pick a color that appeals to you perfectly, and decorate your wedding with your individual taste. Every person is unique, so feel free to decorate your wedding in your own liking.
