Getting Personal

When thinking about the details of your ceremony and reception, get personal. And by this, I mean to add some personal touches. Not only will they be fun to come up with but your guests will enjoy them. At my wedding, some of the personal touches were our favorite restaurants as table names and pictures of us growing up through the years on the mantel. We received a lot of compliments from guests about how they felt closer to us, even the ones that have known us for years.

Other personal touches can come from your favorite colors, first date location or events, engagement pictures, hometown favorites, or travel locations. And they can go into the favors, table settings and centerpieces, escort cards, invitations, programs, and table numbers/names. Get as creative as you feel comfortable with and remember that you don’t want to be totally embarrassed so don’t get too personal.
