If you are in the season of wedding planning, this blog might be just what you need! Although there are many traditional ideas and concepts when it comes to wedding planning, don't be scared to think outside of the box. Here's a few nontraditional ideas to think about when planning for your special day.
1. Themed Wedding
Chose a fun or sentimental theme to base your wedding day around. This is a great way to plan and design all of your decorations, attire, food, and music in a cohesive way. By tying it all together in a unique and entertaining way, your guests will be sure to never forget it!
2. Introduce your Wedding Party
Set up information and photos at your reception, introducing each member of your wedding party. This is a fun way for your guests to know who everyone is and how they are connected to you. These not only serve as a form of decorating, but also entertain guests as they move throughout the festivities of the reception.
3. Your Name in Lights
Rent a huge sign that spells out your last name. This not only is a showstopper, but makes a backdrop for great photos. It's a great way to wow your guests and celebrate your new last name!
4. Flower Man
If you like to make people laugh and currently do not have anyone in mind to be your flower girl. I highly suggest having a flower man. Your guests will be rolling in laughter as he makes his way down the aisle.
5. Alternatives to Bridesmaid Bouquets
Depending on what time of year you get married or the theme of your big day, there are several cute and fun alternatives to bouquets for your bridesmaids to carry. For instance they can carry floral hoops, lanterns, fans, etc. The ideas are endless!
6. Last Dance
We've all heard of the traditional first dance, but perhaps think of setting aside time for a last one before the night is over. This happens while all of your guests make their way outside to light sparklers. The two of you stay and have a quick and quiet little dance, soaking up the last little bits of your special day before your big send off!
7. Fun Send-Offs
Traditionally most couples have sparkler send-offs, which are gorgeous. However, there are several other ideas to explore when thinking about how you want your guests to celebrate you at the end of the night. Smoke bombs and confetti streamers are fun and convenient way to do something different. Especially when it comes to summertime weddings, because they can be done before it gets dark.
