Personalizing Your Wedding

“How do I make my wedding unique”? It’s a question I get from all of my clients and it’s one I love answering as we definitely do not do “cookie cutter” weddings here at RSVP Event Design.

The best way to make your wedding unique is to personalize it and make it about you. What was cute at your sisters wedding might not work for you if you and your sister have nothing in common and have completely different style and taste. Think about what makes you and your fiancé you and how your relationship is unique. Maybe you love camping and campfires so you want to do s’mores at your midnight lunch. Or maybe you love watching old movies so your table names are in honour of your favourite movie stars of the past.

Here are some great personalizing concepts my clients have done at their fabulous weddings:

Tawnya and Dean apparently eat ketchup with EVEYTHING so their favours were personalized mini ketchup bottles with their name and wedding date.

John & Yuki work on a cruise ship so they had a cake in the shape of a cruise ship for the groom’s cake.

Kim & Vito came up with a heart felt and fun way to honour the loved one’s they have lost to breast cancer. They greeted each guest with a pink Baja Rosa shooter as they went through the receiving line and then made a donation to the Pink Ribbon fund for cancer research in their guest’s names.

Daley McIntyre & John MacDonald had a fun and yummy way of playing up on the fact that both of their last names start with Mc! They had a martini luge for their signature cocktail which was a Cranberry 'McTini'.

Jade & Nathan had fun honouring their family’s farming background by using grain in their centerpieces and also having photos of themselves holding the table card number to correspond with the seating chart.
