The Secret to Making Your Wedding Memorable

Think of all the weddings you’ve been to in your lifetime; chances are some you can recall easily, others you have a vague recollection of being there.

What is it about those weddings that are more memorable? How did the bride and groom make their event one that the guests enjoyed, not only while they were in attendance, but months and even years later as they remembered the event? Ever wonder how to make a wedding memorable for a lifetime?

There is a very simple secret to making your wedding – and virtually any other event, for that matter – absolutely unforgettable. It’s not difficult, it has nothing to do with money or your budget, and once you know that secret, you’ll be well on your way to making your own wedding just as memorable.

And that secret is to make things personal. The key to how to make a wedding memorable is to make it absolutely your own. Sure, it’s tempting to want to copy that fabulous reception arrangement you see in a bridal magazine or do what the “experts” tell you should do during the ceremony and reception, but the bottom line is that this is your wedding, it’s your day.

Being inspired by those pictures and by what you’ve seen at other weddings is great, but these should be thought of as merely a stepping stone or jumping off point. You need to tailor that inspiration to make it unique to you.

This may be something as simple as mixing up your flower centerpieces – if you see a photo of roses as a centerpiece and you happen to love roses, try white on one table, red on another, pink on another, and so on. Tie the vases with a piece of fabric that matches your theme or bridesmaid’s dresses. Or, decorate the buffet table with small photos of the two of you from over the years, and loop ribbon around them, in a sort of timeline leading up to your special day. These are simple and affordable but still very unique ways of how to make a wedding memorable.

Making you big day personal can be somewhat difficult when you’re having a very traditional ceremony, as people are afraid to write their own vows or do anything out of the norm. However, you can still accomplish this by just being very dignified about what you’re doing; avoid telling funny stories about your first horrible date or making jokes about how you can’t wait for the wedding night when you’re reciting those vows!

Another secret of how to make a wedding memorable is to personalize your wedding is to give the guests something very special to take home with them. Personalized wedding favors have been a popular choice for many brides because they usually come in a variety of colors and designs, from fun and whimsical to traditional and elegant. Customized candy bar wrappers are a great option, as everyone loves chocolate and you can find designs that match any theme or tone of your wedding.

With just a little bit of thought and personalization, you too can have the secret of how to make a wedding memorable for a lifetime.

Make Your Wedding Memorable

by: Kim Hall

It’s a blur of white lace, pink taffeta, and a bunch of hot men in tuxedos. Something to keep in mind while planning a wedding is that all weddings are pretty much the same, unless one is memorably different of course. Sounds simple enough, but how does one create a wedding that significantly differs from the standard blushing bride, white dress, classy bridesmaids, perfect setting, to be followed by a bunch of food, heavy drinking, and a gift of about $100 per person? What’s the trick to turning the tradition of marriage into something that varies enough from tradition to make it new, different, exciting, and memorable?

Details are important, but they’re not always the answer. If you bedazzle everything with pink Swarovski crystals, no one will care that you spent thousands on your decorations when they try to remember your wedding three months later. If you tie a gold bow around every chair, waiter, fork, and hors d'oeuvres at the reception, people might chuckle and appreciate the theme but few will truly remember the elegance that you tried so hard to create when they think of drunk Uncle Bob with a gold bow around his head. Rent designer chandeliers and they’ll stare in awe for 10 seconds before they dance, get drunk, and forget the elegance that’s hanging above. Bottom line is that it’s become commonplace to impress your wedding guests with a pricey, entertaining, and elaborate reception. In order to make a memory, you need to send them home with a little bit of a reminder of how sophisticated and marvelous your wedding really was.

So here you are, the blushing bride, in dire need of some wedding favour ideas. You’ve booked the photographer, you’ve purchased and altered the perfect dress, and everything is in place with the budget. Your main concern right now might be going overboard and wasting too much money on something small that people might just throw away. The trick is knowing your guests and hoping that they know you too; chose something personal and meaningful to you and your guests and the chances of those tiny $2 treasures getting tossed in the trash will hopefully be slim to none.

When giving away favours at your wedding, you’re automatically going to lean towards the item that is cute, pretty, and goes with the theme of everything you’ve already paid for. It’s a fun and unique idea to lean towards the “functional” aspect of the item rather than the visual. Does it do something? Do you need batteries for it? Is someone going to put it in their purse, take it home, and have a place for it on their shelf? Maybe it’s a paperweight and can be used in an office. Maybe it’s a decorative soap in a functional color that would match almost any bathroom.

If it’s a disposable camera or a picture frame, then the guest is almost guaranteed to keep it with them. The disposable camera idea benefits the guests and the married couple because each guest will be certain to have a camera’s worth of pictures to look back on in an album for years to come, and negatives can be mailed to the bride and groom in order to reproduce candid shots taken at their own party.

The most important tip on getting it right with the wedding favours is choosing a favour that truly shows your appreciation of having each person as your guest. Give them the outstanding wedding that they were expecting, and send them home with a special little token of your gratitude and they will surely remember your soiree for years to come.
