 A wedding is an occasion when two people tie their knots and start their
life together. Since, the start of the civilization, this occasion is
celebrated with lots of enthusiasm in every community. As soon as the boy
or girl attains the right age of marriage, search for the suitable partner
is set.
When a suitable match of equal status, qualifications and
good family background is found, wedding date is decided. Generally, there
are various pre wedding and post wedding ritual that are followed in a
particular society. From ages they have been passed from generation to
generation and are practiced even today.
A wedding is a ritual,
time honoured and sacred but that does not mean that wedding ceremony has
to be like every other. Of course, some couples choose to be extremely
original. They think of some unique ideas.
Some opt for exchanging
vows on a roller coaster, while bungee jumping or even dressed as trekies.
They find it good for uninhibited display of originality. But even if you
prefer more traditional and peaceful wedding, you can still find creative
ways to infuse in the ceremony with elements that are distinctive. You can
browse ceremony ideas.
You can welcome your guests with a
difference. You can serve a lemonade, iced tea or water. It’s a nice touch
and guests will appreciate the gesture. You can use refreshment of choice
to tie in the theme or style of the day, depending on the season or nature
of the wedding.

You can divert from the seasonal dishes and serve some
unseasonable dishes in the main course.
It is not necessary that
every wedding ceremony must take place in a house of worship. Unique
locations or some outdoor sites can make for ceremonies that are both
spiritual and memorable.
You can plan your wedding on a ship or on
exchange your vows at the hilltop.
For the decorations also, you
may not go for the traditional floral arrangements. Try some thing unique.
How about draping framed photographs of the bride and groom tied with
ribbon over the ends of each row?
During summer, you can put small
bamboo fans on the walls. Keep the shape and style traditional, and
include personal letter or poem to add some interest to this often
overlooked detail. There are other ways to make entrance beyond the
traditional march with your father. Ride in on a horse or be escorted by
parents, a close uncle, friend or even a pet.
If you do not want to
walk down the isle to the same song as thousands of brides and want to do
something appealing, there’s no reason that you cannot substitute your
favourite tune to make a memorable substitute. While choosing your “maid”
of honour, you can go for a guy who happens to your best pal and instead
have “a man of honour”. The same thing goes for the best man; there’s no
reason why can’t be a “best woman”.
You can have a theme based
invitation for the party. Chocolates shaped in heart can be send to the
guests. While walking down the isle, you can hold a beautiful vase or bowl
with a combined sand in two colors creating a visual representation of the
union of two families.
You can put in your most colourful
imaginations in your wedding plans and make it a memorable event.
