Your Wedding: Distinctively Yours
Check out these inspired ideas for adding a personal touch to your wedding day.
Have images of the two of you printed on savethe-dates and/or invitations.
Incorporate your heritage into the ceremony
and reception through decor, music and menu
selection.
Instead of using table numbers, personalize
each table by naming it after something that has
meaning for you, i.e. your favorite vacation spots,
favorite authors, streets
you've lived on.
Select a cake topper that reflects your
personality, heritage or hobbies.
Have the reception
meal reflect the meal of
your first date.
Create your own
signature drinks to be
served at the cocktail hour.
Center your wedding
theme around a favorite
movie, artwork, song, etc.
Before making your
entrance into the reception
area, have a video play
showing how you met.
Have friends and family
perform during the
ceremony.
Incorporate a family
dish into the reception
menu or a favorite dessert
into the dessert table.
Give favors that reflect
your interests. If you're a
book lover,
give personalized
bookmarks.
Center your wedding
theme around a favorite
sport or hobby.
Personalize your
wedding with a favorite
quote or saying. I attended
a graduation celebration
with the theme: "Oh, the
places you'll go". The
phrase was printed on
everything from the
programs to favors.
Include your pets in the
wedding ceremony. A wellbehaved dog could act as
ring bearer.
Print the story of your
Maria Angela Photography
proposal onto paper and
create scrolls (tie with
ribbon or "faux" wedding bands). Place at each
table setting.
Have an ordained family member or friend
perform the ceremony.
