Getting creative
Want a truly unique and personalised wedding?
Looking for ways to add a little sparkle to your ceremony and reception? A bit of pizzazz. WOW factor. Something none of your guests were expecting. Something to leave them speechless, or saying, “I wish I did that at my wedding!”
We’ve got just the thing. Check out these four truly unique wedding ideas that will make your wedding extra special and one-of-a-kind.
Wedding favours to treasure forever
Give your guests a unique wedding favour they’ll want to treasure well beyond the day. A cute little potted cactus or coaster with your initials and wedding date engraved makes for a lovely lasting memory of your special day. Or how about a pretty packet of your favourite wildflowers for your guests to plant at home?
Equally as nice – although not as long-lasting – are edible wedding favours. Think artisan chutneys, a personalised craft beer and homemade sloe gin or jam. These look great as table decorations and always go down a treat. Plus – who doesn’t love a tiny little jar of sweeties?!
A breathtaking ceremony
Why not make your ceremony as fun, unique and meaningful as your reception? Mix things up a bit (literally) with a wine ceremony. It symbolises togetherness and the merging of two into one by blending wine, which the couple then drink. It’s a bit different and you get to drink wine – a win-win.
Or, shun tradition and walk down the aisle together hand-in-hand. It’s the perfect way to kick off the rest of your lives together – a poignant, unique wedding ceremony idea.
A wild and unforgettable reception
For your reception, get creative and use your imagination with unique table settings. Silly colourful straws, party hats, framed photos of who’s seated at each table – whatever you decide, it’s a lovely gesture and is sure to make your guests feel extra special.
Do something unexpected by organising a big game of bingo with fun prizes and giveaways. It’s a unique wedding entertainment idea and a fantastic way to get everyone involved.
You could also create a designated kids play area to keep the little ones entertained and allow the grown-ups to let loose. Fill the space with exciting puzzles, games or even a mini climbing frame if you’re feeling adventurous.
Unique wedding food ideas
Fuel the festivities until the early hours with a late-night truck serving up burgers, hotdogs and chips. Everyone knows it’s the best part of a night out anyway and what a way to end a spectacular celebration! Just make sure you don’t drip any ketchup on your dress…
Creating your own personalised cocktail for you and your guests to enjoy is a really simple way to personalise your big day. Perhaps serve you and your partner’s favourite cocktail but add a cheeky twist just for fun.
