There’s been a record amount of weddings recently. Chances are your friends, your parents friends, even your Great Aunt and Uncle have been to a few before yours.
But remember, nobody has been to your wedding! Albeit somewhat cheesy that is the reality. It's your chance to make it exactly how you want it to be. In the modern era, trends spread rapidly and weddings can feel repetitive and routine. In the modern era, trends spread rapidly and weddings can feel repetitive and routine.
Here are 5 ways to make your wedding, your wedding.
- Lean into your personal preferences and backgrounds. Incorporate family traditions, ancestral heirlooms, mementos from where you met, into your wedding.
- Play music you like! Don't just play what everyone else plays - mix in some Country, Taylor Swift, or Motown. If looking for inspiration we’ve compiled The Greatest Wedding Playlist Ever with some original tracks.
- Prepared drinks at happy hour. Everyone can do this, it's a good idea to prevent a line at the bar. Chances are people are happy with wine, vodka soda, margarita or Arnold Palmer.
- Dessert you and your wedding guests will actually eat. There’s great tradition in the wedding cake, but nobody would turn down chocolate chip cookies or an ice cream sundae bar.
- Reduce one time use and waste. Go on a vintage haul, provide reusable welcome bags, or send digital invites and thank you cards. Your guests will understand and appreciate.
Hope that helps!
