5 Ways to Spruce Up Your Big Day

1. Have a Live Band

Nowadays many people decide to go with a DJ for their wedding reception. If you like a wide variety of music that is probably the route you will take. We love DJs, but you could also consider having a live band. Live music is slightly more intimate and you can pick out a band that you and your partner know you love! Bands simply elevate the atmosphere of wedding receptions.

2. Make Fun Wedding Favors

Providing disposable cameras for your guests will leave them with memories of your wedding that they can always look back on! There are so many different things you can do to leave your guests with a special gift that they will appreciate and use. For example, shotglasses or coozies, personalized match boxes, and tiny plants may be favors you haven’t thought about.

3. Personalized Photo Booth

Your guests will love a personalized photo booth. You can even be minimalistic and classy with this idea and just have a custom neon sign with your new last name. If you like to be silly, this is a great opportunity to have wedding related signs for your guests to hold in the photos that are veils, top hats, emojis, whatever you can imagine.

4. Dedicated Space for Loved Ones in Heaven

There are many different ways to do this but honoring friends or family who have passed is such a touching detail to include on such an important day. A common way to do this is to have an area at your reception with photos of these loved ones. Another way that has been popular on social media lately, is to save seats for them with a reserved sign and their name so a seat is reserved when walking down the aisle.

5. Hire a Live Painter

This idea has become popular more recently on TikTok. There are artists that paint a picture of your wedding ceremony live during the wedding. This doubles as entertainment for the guests as well. It is also a unique way to have a special memory different from regular photos.
