Small Ways To Add Elegance to A Wedding
Every bride and groom wants their special day to be unforgettable. For this reason, no expense is spared in finding the perfect dress for the bride, the best venue, finest food, quality flowers and music. Sometimes though it is the smallest of things that will make the wedding truly unforgettable.
When discussing colors with your coordinator at your wedding venue, you will probably be offered either cream or white as a color option for tablecloths and napkins. Nowadays, most brides do tend to develop their own color scheme and will plan everything around it. Certain colors of table linen may be provided by the venue or you can rent them from an independent firm. Having matching linen will add a certain style to the reception. You can even go a step further and add chair covers in either a matching or complementary shade. It isn’t something that people would notice if it were missing, but they will be sure to notice it once it’s there. This will help to tie in the reception room with the wedding color scheme.
Traditionally, you will have water goblets placed on the tables. An inexpensive addition would be to add a lemon wheel to every glass. When it comes to the champagne toast, ensure that there is a fresh strawberry added. Both of these small additions will make the drinks look and taste fantastic. It will also impress the guests that you have spent much thought into the little things whilst planning.
The food has to be the best part of the wedding reception. Everybody looks forward to savoring the delicious delights that grace the tables. Welcome your guests with a pre dinner cocktail hour. Usually you will find a variety of spirits and mixers served but why not greet the guests with a margarita fountain. A small pasta station is becoming quite a popular addition to the cocktail hour. A small table with just a couple of different pastas and sauces is a great way to keep hunger pangs at bay before the wedding feast. Once the main meal is over, rather than serving individual cofees, consider a coffee buffet with different types of coffee on offer. Again these are not too expensive items to add, but your guests will remember them.
To create a totally chic look for your wedding set the stage with any or all of the special extras. You may even have other ideas that will set your wedding apart from all the others.
