Unique wedding ideas for your ceremony

You want your wedding to be romantic, personal, even perfect, but perhaps most of all, you want it to be unforgettable.

Escort Card Notes

If you have the time, a personalized note on each escort card will surely make an impression. Whether you reference a shared secret or simply write something like, “Thank you for celebrating with us”, guests will not forget being welcomed at your wedding with a handwritten note. For those of us that keep escort cards, it makes a great keepsake.

Shoe Valets

For those who getting married on the sand, a place for guests to leave their heels is sure to impress. They’ll be grateful they don’t have to hold their shoes throughout the ceremony. Depending on your budget, these set-ups can be manned by an attendant or stand alone. Simply place a table near the entrance to the ceremony area. Top it off with a floral arrangement and a sign that reads: “Shoe Valet. Please join us with your toes in the sand as we say our vows.”  Set up a few chairs next to the table and have paintbrushes and towels on hand for guests to clean off their feet as they make their way to cocktail hour after the ceremony.

Circular Seating

Declaring your love for one another surrounded by your closest family and friends is a touching alternative to the traditional ceremony seating where you family sits on one side and his on the other. Weddings are about bringing two families together, which is why a ceremony in the round lends itself perfectly to the wedding day. Just leave room for the aisle.

Wedding Webcasts

If you’re among the 40 percent of couples who are having a destination wedding this year, you might want to webcast your ceremony. Webcasts allow those friends and family members who cannot make it to the beg day to hear and see you say your “I dos” in real time from their home computers.
