Ready to ditch the traditional wedding playbook and flip the script on your big day? Whether you’re dreaming of a quirky affair, a vintage-inspired soiree, or something out of a fairy tale galaxy, planning an alternative wedding day is all about YOU. Buckle up for a ride on the unconventional side, and let’s dive into how to plan the wedding day that screams ‘you’ louder than your cousin after a third cup of coffee.
Define Your Vibe
First things first, what’s your vibe? Rock ‘n’ roll romance? Whimsical wonderland? Rustic and offbeat? Define your vibe, and let it guide every decision, from the decor to the dress.
Location, Location, Location
Break free from the typical wedding venues and explore unique spaces. Think botanical gardens, art galleries, rooftop bars, farms or even a funky warehouse. Your alternative wedding venue sets the stage for the extraordinary.
The Outfit – Make a Statement
Forget the traditional if it’s not your jam. Embrace colour, patterns, or even a jumpsuit! Your dress is your canvas; paint it with your personality.
DIY Décor Delight
Get your crafty on! Create DIY centerpieces, quirky photo booths, or personalized signage. The more handmade touches, the more it screams ‘you.’
Unconventional Invites
Your invitation is the first hint at your alternative wedding day. Go for funky fonts, unexpected colours, or even opt for video invites! Set the tone and let your creativity run wild.
Foodie Fantasia
Swap the classic three-course meal for something more eclectic. Food trucks, a dessert bar, or even a themed buffet – let your taste buds dictate the menu
Offbeat Entertainment
Live band? Yes, please! Fire jugglers? Comedy Performers? Why not! Alternative wedding days thrive on unique entertainment. Surprise your guests with something they’ve never seen at a wedding before.
Personalized Vows and Officiant
Kick traditional vows to the curb and pen your own love manifesto. Consider having a close friend officiate for that extra personal touch.
Alternative Gift Registry
Say goodbye to the standard gift registry; create one that reflects your interests and passions. Maybe a camping gear registry or contributions to your dream travel fund?
Capture the Chaos
A killer photographer is your ally in capturing the alternative awesomeness. Find someone who gets your vision and can freeze those candid, unconventional moments forever (ie Book me 😜)
Dancing ’til Dawn:
Keep the dance floor alive with your favorite tunes. Consider a playlist filled with tracks that have shaped your relationship, or hire a DJ who’s ready to spin your kind of beats
Be True to You
Most importantly, let your personalities shine through. It’s YOUR day, so don’t shy away from the quirks, inside jokes, or the unexpected. After all, it’s those unique touches that make your wedding unforgettable.
So there you have it! Your guide to planning an alternative wedding day that’s as offbeat as you are. Get ready to break the mould, dance to your own beat, and create a celebration that’s authentically, unapologetically, and undeniably YOU
