Hold a Minimal Bouquet
Minimalist bouquets make a chic and classy statement in a way that the average bountiful bouquet can’t—it’s the perfect way for a bride to channel her modern style. Allow a nosegay or Biedermeier bouquet to be the focal point of your wedding day look as you make your way down the aisle.
Take Song Requests
Ask invitees to jot down their favorite song on the RSVP card—or have them email it to you instead. Compile all the song requests into a playlist and give it to your DJ for a variety of jams that guests will enjoy.
Dress Your Flower Girl in Something Blue
In need of something blue? Forget the traditional blue garter or jewelry ideas—a flower girl in blue is so much cuter, especially when accompanied by a flower crown. Alternatively, have the flower girl toss blue-dyed flower petals for a fun twist on this classic tradition.
Create a Custom Monogram
Add a custom stamp of your and your partner’s first initials throughout the wedding for a personal touch. Brand it on everything from wedding signs to table numbers and favors for consistency.
Make Fruit the Favor
For favors that guests will actually use, set up a “farm stand” of fresh fruit and small baskets (or mini crates) that they can fill on their way out the door. Another fun idea is to adorn apples or pears with personalized stickers that contain your names or a pun along the lines of “we make a pear-fect couple.”
Go Neon
There’s no denying the charm of a wooden sign or the elegance of a mirrored sign, but everyone uses them. Opt for something creative that reflects your theme, like a fun neon sign with a sweet love-centric slogan. For the reception, consider incorporating a neon sign with your wedding hashtag as a photo booth backdrop.
Set Up an Eclectic Menu
Take into consideration your perfect food day (breakfast through dinner plus snacks and dessert). Allow your caterer to combine your and your partner’s tastes to create the ideal wedding meal for a diverse menu.
If you plan on serving food from different cultures, then an elegant buffet could be a unique way to satisfy a variety of palates.
Hand Out Wedding Day Cookies
Why not match your cookies to your décor? The wedding cookies shown above were “printed” with a toile pattern that was beloved by the bride. Another idea is to stack the dessert table with cookies frosted with your monogram or shaped like the numerals of your wedding date (“6,” “20,” “17”) for a personal touch.
Don’t Forget a Map
If you’re having a destination wedding or have a lot of guests coming from out of town, including a map of the area your wedding will be in with your invitations—after all, they’ll be spending the whole weekend there!
