Preparing for your wedding day can be a happy, fun and sometimes stressful time. There are certain things that every bride dreams of for the entirety of her life and believe it or not, the groom does too.
Below we are going to be looking at some of the least conventional must-haves for the 21st-century bride and groom.
Sten Party
A joint stag and hen party can be an amazing thing for the 21st-century couple. Especially as both stag and hen parties can work out to be very expensive.
Taking the sten to the next level is where it gets interesting. Make it into a competitive day. Whether it be paintballing or an escape room, competition in a relationship is healthy and it will also be a great opportunity for the stags to get to know the hens.
Transport
The transport is usually one of the biggest decisions the groom likes to make. Before he has decided on his suit he will be looking at wedding cars but the transport needn’t be conventional nowadays.
You can now travel to the church in anything from a Cinderella-style pumpkin, to a Delorean complete with a flux capacitor. You can now more or less anything you desire and if it encapsulates your personality, then why not?
The wedding ring represents the eternal promise you make to one another. So why not take an extra step and have your vows engraved on the rings before the big day.
Small things like this are a must-have for a couple that wants to keep that spark alive. After all, you will only ever have to look down for a permanent reminder of why you love one another.
The 50/50 Cake
The wedding cake is probably the most important thing after the ceremony, the sight of your wedding cake at your reception lets you know you are now husband and wife.
Your wedding should always be an extension of you both, so why not consider a split wedding cake, flavours that represent you both and decoration to match. After all your wedding day should be all about what you want and not what people expect of you.
Time for a Carnival?
A great idea for your wedding evening is carnival carts. Although it may sound crazy, you could set up a few stands with hotdogs, sweets, candyfloss, and popcorn outside the venue.
Why is this such a great idea? You could offer these at a small charge to the guests and use the money towards a fantastic honeymoon. All of the guests would probably embrace the idea and you would get some help towards the honeymoon of your dreams.
There we have just a few interesting must-haves for the bride and groom. Your wedding day is going to be one of the biggest days of your life, you may as well make it as memorable as possible for everybody involved, especially you and your other half.
