Adding personalized touches like your favorite song lyric or your pet into your wedding theme is a great way to put your stamp on your big day.

These non-traditional settings will make your wedding day one to remember.

With a touch of creativity, you can find a dress that is just as breathtaking and distinctive as your personality. See what to bring to your dress fitting, HERE and what to do with the dress, post wedding, HERE.

• Consider Motion blur wedding photography (Movement Photography)

What Is Motion Photography?

Motion photography, also known as cinemagraphs or living images, is a captivating form of visual storytelling that combines the elements of traditional photography with subtle, mesmerizing motion. It goes beyond a static image to create a sense of movement, capturing a specific moment in time. This unique medium allows photographers to add an extra layer of depth and emotion to their work, bringing it to life and immersing viewers in a truly immersive and engaging experience. From the exchange of vows to those unforgettable dance moves during the reception, your wedding day is filled with priceless moments that deserve to be cherished forever. That's where motion photography comes in. Unlike traditional still images, motion photography allows you to relive the magic and emotion of your special day, capturing all the movement, laughter, and tears in stunning detail.

• Consider Backyard Wedding Soiree

Ultimately, backyard events offer couples a unique opportunity to create meaningful and lasting memories in a personalized and affordable way. By tapping into the beauty and potential of your outdoor space HERE, you can create a bespoke and unforgettable experience that will remain with you for years to come. 

• Consider Serving Lite Hors d'oeuvres Before the Ceremony

Alexis, one of our recent bride, did just that. Guests were greeted to the sound of soft music playing in the background, hors d'oeuvres and lite cocktail (non-alcohol) as they arrive to start the celebration. They were surprised and really enjoyed the change.  So, you don't have to wait to get the party started. Have waitstaff ready with lite hors d'oeuvres, or setup a champagne station to start the festivities. As your guests arrive, they will be surprised and ready to start the celebration as they wait patiently for the ceremony to begin.

• Consider One-of-a-Kind Cake Designs 

So, if we are ditching everything traditional for a wedding, let's not forget to add wedding cakes to the list. Skipping the traditional wedding cake for a non-traditional cake is promising and wedding-worthy; there are so many fantastic designs you can opt for, from cake designers creating beautiful "Dutch Masters" type cakes to incorporating arts & crafts with cake decoration. The results from this artwork will be a fantastic addition that will make your guests' jaws drop for a quick second.

• Consider Roaring Disco Aesthetics

What is it about disco that we get so excited? The seventies was an era where anything goes. From psychedelic colors to disco balls (oh my!), fringed clothing, bell bottoms, you name it, it was a thing back then. I guess disco will always be a part of every generation. There are many fun ways to use disco aesthetics in your wedding - from chandeliers, centerpieces, favors, or a backdrop for your cake, right? Once you have a vision in mind, keep to it. Don't run a muck with this; it tends to be very easy to let it get away from you. 

• Consider Strolling Tables or Live Statues 

Alright, party people! We all know that one of the best things about attending a wedding is to meet new people and make new friends. It's no secret that starting a conversation with someone you've never met before can be a bit uncomfortable. Adding this element of surprise to your wedding will surely be a fun way to break the ice and encourage your guests to mingle and socialize. 

What's a strolling table, you might ask? A strolling table consists of a trained performer wearing an elaborate costume, often to fit a theme, which doubles as a table. The purpose is to dazzle and entertain guests while serving hors d'oeuvres, cocktails, or small desserts.

• Consider Maximalist Floral + Decor

Maximalism is about boldness, mixing patterns and textures, and creating a sense of abundance. It's perfect for couples who want to make their wedding stand out and leave a lasting impression on their guests. Here are a few points to incorporating maximalist decor into your wedding: Embrace color; Mix patterns and textures; Incorporate statement pieces; and Pay attention to details. Remember, maximalism is all about going big and bold, so don't be afraid to mix and match different elements to create a unique and personalized look for your wedding day.

• Consider Bridalcore Couture - Themed Wedding Aesthetics

You have probably seen the hashtags on Tik Tok - cottagecore, royalcore, normcore. The -core trend takes the idea of fandom and applies it to aesthetics, fashion, home decor, accessories, and even styles of art, photography, and bridal. The term 'bridal core' is whatever inspires you or reflects your personality. Sounds exciting, right? Check out our article on Cafecore, HERE. 

If you plan on trying this trend, let it be something you like and reflect you individually or as a couple. Try not to go overboard too much. Remember, less is more.

The first step to creating a 'bridal core' begins with invitations. It sets the tone and tells your wedding story.
