So your wedding outfit, wedding venue, decor, wedding transport, food, make-up, and hair are ticked off the list and you are almost ready for the big day. But it is still an almost and there’s room for some finishing touches to make it perfect for the wedding day. Small details and some customization will be the perfect finishing touches you need for the day.
The perfect finishing touch for your special day will depend on your personal preferences and the overall theme of your wedding. However, here are some ideas to consider:
- Flowers
- Lighting
- Music
- Wedding Favours
- Wedding Car
- Personalized Details
- Special Dessert
All these things are already present in every wedding but a little more attention to the details and adding your personalized touch to them will make it look a hundred times better and it will show that you have consciously put in effort for that. Here we have explained the above-mentioned things to make your special occasion over the top with barely any effort.
Flowers
Flowers are a classic finishing touch for any wedding. Flowers are already an essential part of the wedding decor and are handled by the decor team but a little more attention to the type of flowers you need can make a lot of difference. Use similar flowers for the bridesmaids’ outfits, stage, aisle, and wedding car.
Use flowers that are fragrant as fragrance is an instant mood lifter. Lavender has a very soft smell and you can never go wrong with it. The smell isn’t overpowering but at the same time, it keeps the atmosphere fresh. You can’t have fresh flowers for everything but try to use them in as many places as you can.
Lighting
The right lighting can set the mood for your wedding reception. It gives a laid-back mood to the wedding atmosphere. Consider adding fairy lights or candles to create a romantic and intimate atmosphere. Recently you must have seen the string lights are installed and they are best for an outdoor wedding. At night time, they not only illuminate the location but add a savvy and dreamy effect to the pictures as well. For some extra warmth and romance make sure the fairy lights are golden rather than white.
Make sure you don’t just stick to fairy lights or string lights. Many versatile options will make your event stand out. In outdoor weddings, you can make small fire pits, put fragrant candles on each table and hang lanterns from the branches of trees. These things are the perfect fit within the budget and have an impact.
Music
Music is an important part of any wedding celebration. Choose a playlist that reflects your taste and style, or hire a band or DJ to keep the party going. Having a playlist that reflects your style and which has a history with you and your partner automatically adds warmth to it.
If you ask me I would prefer you to have live music or a band. Nothing will keep guests more entertained than a live musical performance. You can also contact them before the event and tell them the songs you want them to play.
One thing you need to check before hiring the band is their reputation in that area. You can see their website or Instagram page for testimonials. Many local bands play on such special occasions and they aren’t much expensive too.
Wedding Favours
Giving your guests a small gift to take home is a lovely way to thank them for attending your special day. Consider personalized items such as custom-made candles or small jars of honey or jams. You can even carve or print the guests’ names on their wedding favours. To add more warmth to it, you can add small handwritten notes for your friends and family. Make them pretty by wax-sealing the envelopes. These small things don’t cost much but they will stay with them as a memory. Lastly, don’t forget to pack them well with cotton papers and ribbons.
Wedding Car
The wedding car is the first thing that sets an impression of the whole wedding. Arriving at your wedding venue in a stylish and luxurious wedding car from Wedding Cars Manchester can be the perfect finishing touch to your special day. You can choose a classic car or a modern luxury car to suit your style.
If you are having a modern-themed wedding make sure you get a luxury sports car or limousine and for a vintage countryside wedding, classic or vintage cars are the best option. You can find many such car hire services in your area. So find a credible company as soon as you can and book your dream car which suits the theme of your wedding.
Personalized Details
Adding personalized details to your wedding, such as monogrammed napkins, custom-made menus, or a signature cocktail, can make your wedding feel unique and special. These fun accessories don’t take much effort but they give an impression that you have invested in the smallest details.
You can colour-coordinate the wedding stationery with the wedding theme. The same colours in the bride’s and groom’s dresses will look as if you have consciously added an effort and these smallest personalized details will turn out amazing in the wedding photos and videos.
Special Dessert
Some extra desserts never hurt anybody and you can never go wrong with them. A beautiful and delicious dessert can be the perfect finishing touch to your wedding reception. Consider a dessert that reflects your wedding theme or a cake that is personalized to your taste.
Your wedding cake doesn’t have to be the only dessert for your wedding. Save some money from your budget and have a small dessert buffet. Puddings, cotton candy, and personalized chocolates are the best dessert options for the buffet where guests can go and help themselves with it.
