Do something different for your wedding

							Do something different for your wedding

It’s almost here, your big day. You’ve got so much to sort out: the catering, the invites,
the wedding transportation. All that seems irrelevant though, because there’s one thing
that’s dominating your mind, keeping you up at night. It has to be different, it has to be
special, it has to be memorable. Everyone that’s attending has to remember that this is
your day, this was your wedding. You know how it is, these sorts of things blend into
one, this wedding, that wedding, all you can remember is a church, a white dress, some
awful canapes, the bog standard rolls royce and a room full of people you vaguely
know. There’s the faint recollection of your partner’s terrible drunken dancing too, but
you’re suppressing that. It didn’t happen. It did. Not. Happen.

That’s not good enough for you. You’ve found the person that you want to spend you
life with, all those awful first dates and awkward breakaways are behind you and you’re
in love. Surely that deserves something a bit special, something that every guest will
never forget.

How do you achieve that? Well, you have 2 real options. The first one is to go all in, to
be totally different and unique. A church wedding? Everyone has been there, most of
your guests will have done it enough to have entire wardrobes full of the T-Shirt. How
about getting married in a country house instead? It’s certainly an impressive setting but
it’s still a little average.

A beach then perhaps; what could be better than getting married beneath the open sky
and next to one of nature’s most beautiful wonders. It would be amazing, if the beach
was how it appeared in the sunset and sepia stained lense of the movies. It’s not
though. Sorry. Even if you can ignore the charming smell of damp seaweed and the
vast impracticality of wearing pretty shoes when there’s crabs prowling about looking for
tasty ankles to snip, there’s still one big, white, greedy problem. No, not the bride!
Seagulls. Strangely enough, it’s hard to create the sort of romantic vibe that suits your
special day when the backing music is the shriek of a hundred birds as they circle
unsettlingly around the covered food table, their cruel eyes glinting with the sort of
hunger that makes you wonder if this will be a wonderful moment for you two or a
Hitchcock classic.

There is another option though, one that is less likely to end in death, divorce or a guest
appearance on Don’t Tell the Bride. Be different, be creative but don’t overdo it. Get a
distinctive cake, find a venue with a cool attraction or arrive via an unusual wedding
transport. Rather than trying to blow your guests away, make your special day stick in
their minds because you got married by a close friend or by having you and your
wedding party arrived in something wacky like a fleet of customized wedding rickshaws.
