Unique Wedding Ideas: Invitations and Favors

There are many unique wedding ideas you can utilize to make your day a memorable one. Once you start thinking outside the proverbial box, there is no limit to the number of possibilities. Here are a few ideas around invitations and favors to get you started.
Instead of simply sending an invitation card, do a presentation on a CD or a DVD. You will be able to incorporate pictures, music, video, and personal messages. You can convey much more about yourselves as a couple and the event, in a package that becomes a memento in its own right. You can even include detailed directions if needed, using a slideshow of pictures taken along the route. For older family members you may want to stick to the “traditional” invitation, since some of them grew up in a very different age, having very little interest in technology.

Some incredible possibilities for unique wedding ideas become possible when you put some personal effort into it. If you look at what you can achieve by using home made paper, pressed flowers, ribbons, etc, you will see that you can create invitations so unique no one else will be able to create an exact copy. The multitude of options made possible by making home made paper will have you pondering for a while.

Many more unique wedding ideas are made possible by designing and making your own wedding favors. You can start by simply doing an internet search: You will have stacks of new ideas to choose from. Even if you do not wish to spend the time to make them yourself, you will still be able to find a load of places you can order them from. You may find yourself overwhelmed by the sheer volume of choices, though.

Consider the general decoration of the reception hall. You are trying to bring a message across, and your wedding favors should complement this. Whatever the theme for your wedding, regardless of whether it is elegant, natural, or outrageous, you will need unique, but matching wedding favors. Keep in mind that many simple, yet striking items can be bought, and personalized with minimal effort or further expense.

If you need truly unique wedding ideas, simply start looking around. You can use any existing idea, and add your “signature”, or personal touch to it.
