Christmas Wedding Ideas

 

There are three important holidays during this time of year: Christmas, New Year’s Eve and Valentine’s Day. These themes are ideal for weddings because they are fun, festive, cheerful and romantic too. Christmas time is a great time to plan a wedding. The holiday spirit is very contagious and easy to utilize to create an unforgettable wedding ceremony and reception. This time of year is very busy in terms of weddings and festivities.
Christmas is sought after by many couples for their nuptials, this is why you need to book your favorite venue months before the D-day. If you’re marrying on a short notice you may not be able to find anything available for this date. The best part is that economical brides and grooms can use the decorations and floral arrangements used by other couples for their ceremony and reception. Many churches are already decorated  during this period. So, it would be nice to spend less on the décor and save more for other important stuff. But if you want to make your own setting, choose seasonal flowers in white, green and red accents. These are the most traditional hues to select for a chrismas affair.

Are you searching for something trendier, choose white and silver, as a more fashionable theme. If you have a long engagement of a year, start looking or Christmas decorations for your upcoming wedding this season. You should be able to find after-Christmas sales and many discount offers after Dec. 26. Buy them now and use them the next year. This is an affordable alternative for couples on a budget. Christmas weddings are wonderful occasions based on family. You can get inspired from the Christmas decorations and traditions you use at home for your wedding. Incorporate your favorite holiday elements in your wedding for a more familiar feel. Consider using wreaths for the ceremony, doors and entrances. They look festive and are great as wedding decorations. You can place them on chairs. Don’t forget to decorate the aisle with small wreaths of your favorite ingredients.

Modern Wedding Reception Venue Ideas

One of the most important and exciting decisions you’ll have to make as a couple is on your venue. The ceremony usually takes place in a church or chapel and it is a more formal event based on religious considerations. The reception on the other hand is more relaxed and diverting. The reception party is meant to celebrate the couple’s sacred union and offer the guests an enjoyable meal.many people like to attend a wedding because of the delicious food, desserts and dancing music.

The location plays a crucial role in deciding on the menu, décor and music used during the reception. You should be able to make these choices based on the type of location you’ve initially planned. The theme and the other small details you need for the reception must suit the tonality of the venue and reflect it. The venue can transform the feel of a wedding through its specific. For instance, beach venues are exotic and lend a tropical flair to the décor. Mountain top nuptials are wilder and more adventurous. Outdoors wedding don’t even need much of a decoration.

You can use the beauty of the nature for the setting or allow the flowers, the trees and surroundings create the perfect backdrop for your reception. Spending the wedding day in the middle of the nature is fun and exciting for both adults and children. It’s trendy to use the backyard of a large house for a home reception. This is a cost-effective plan for those who are on a budget. You can choose your own garden or book a friend’s property for your party or an open event space . These events are financially advantageous and also more fun and laid-back. You can transform the rigid formality of a traditional wedding by the venue you use.

 Garden receptions are romantic choices for those who want to add a magical flair to their big day. There are many spots to choose from for a unique garden wedding. It can be a gazebo or arch reception. These locations are ideal for romantic wedding photos. Choose a botanical garden or an English themed garden reception for a more whimsical feel.

Beautiful Food Presentation

I'm a firm believer in the thought that we eat with our eyes first. Presentation of food is therefore a vital part of the event design process.

There's a good reason why the top caterers invest lots of time and money in creating dishes that are visually appealing. Great food presentation can lift the atmosphere at any event. It can spark great conversation amongst a group of guests who otherwise may have been engaging in banal small talk before they were served the first course.

Regular guests at corporate dinners or weddings can tire easily from the same old food being presented just as blandly as the previous event. Beautiful food, stylistically presented, can be the difference between them having positive thoughts about the event or merely thinking ‘so what’.

And whilst great presentation isn’t a substitute for poor quality food, it can certainly make great food taste even better.....

SEATING OPTIONS AT EVENT : LONG TABLES

 

At decorunlimited , we love encouraging our clients to seat their guests at long, square or rectangular tables.

Judging by how many events we've done using this format, our clients buy into this idea too.

Obviously, the venue layout will dictate the best size and shape of table to use. If it's a flexible space, it's worth considering some alternatives to the traditional round table format.

There's some serious disadvantages to the traditional round-table set-up. For instance, in a noisy room, you often need a loud hailer to communicate with the person opposite you.

Factor in a tall centrepieces and bottles of wine and meaningful conversation can become extremely difficult with all but the person either side of you.

Here's a couple of alternatives that could make a huge difference to the look and atmosphere of any gala dinner or wedding.

The Nearly Square Table

 

A favourite style of ours is to join two 6ft trestle tables together. This will create a nearly square 6ft x 5ft table. This allows everyone at the table to converse more easily with each other.

Better group conversation then becomes possible and the atmosphere improves dramatically.

Done properly, this table format should use bespoke tablecloths to fit. It's more expensive but the extra investment is worth it as there'll be no unsightly joins from having to use more than one tablecloth.

The Long, Rectangular Table

A more traditional take on banqueting seating arrangements is the long, rectangular table.

For centuries, this has been the format for state dinners. In fact, it originates from medieval times when the King would sit in the middle of the table.

This style of seating is very well suited to more traditional venues like castles and converted churches.

The table set-up is narrower but long so the event organiser needs to give careful thought to where guests are seated.

 

 

How to Dress the Most Sumptuous Wedding Reception Tables

That Make Your Guests’ Gasp As Soon As They Enter the Room!

At décor unlimited we create that visually stimulating wedding/event that makes your guests think about what you’ve created and give them something to immediately talk about. It can be the ultimate ice-breaker too. Having an attention grabbing feel or look to your wedding immediately lets everyone connect on a similar level which is generally a better way to start conversations than waiting for someone to break the ice with some meaningless small talk. Straight away, you’ll create a wonderful atmosphere – a buzz even – and your guests will be more relaxed and ready to enjoy themselves far more.

These days, it is not uncommon for a bride or her guests to be invited to up to

Five or more weddings over the course of a period, and after a while they can become quite repetitive and boring

If you can create a wedding that’s visually stimulating at the outset, then that

sets the tone for the rest of your wedding.

4  Reasons Why You Should Invest More

of Your Wedding Budget In Décor

 

1. Stamp your individuality & personality on your wedding

Don’t be drab and boring or scared to show off a bit. It’s your wedding day

afterall. If there’s one day in your life when you can be excused for blowing

your own trumpet, lol…  it’s your wedding day. Make your guests sit up and take

notice of you!

2. Create a great first impression aka the WOW factor…*winks

Make your guests take notice when they enter your wedding venue so that

they immediately know they’re at something special. This will set the tone

for the rest of your wedding. Your guests will thank you for inviting them to

such a special occasion.

3. Transform the space… Aka (Packaging..

Your guests may have been at a wedding at your venue before. Some may

even have attended more than one. If the table and room décor is bland

like the previous weddings they’ve been to, there’s every possibility they’ll

think your wedding is bland too and you don’t want that impression do you???

4. Share the joy of your wedding day

Your friends and family will realize that you truly appreciate them by

taking your wedding to a higher level, design wise. They’ll feel uplifted by

the occasion and be proud that you value your friendship with them

by putting so much thought and effort into entertaining them.

There’s so  much you can do with your event for less, that is why we are here to help you create the wow factor.

We are only a phone call, a ping, a text and email away from you…..*smiley face

How to Create the Right First Impression

It’s an old cliché but first impressions really do count. In order for your event to be judged a success, you need to create a good first impression and the easiest way to do this is by making your guests gasp as soon as they enter your reception. There are so many things you can do to decorate your tables or reception to a high standard. But before we get there, you need to do some planning.

Planning a wedding reception can be a daunting experience - an awful lot of attention and detail is required to ensure this event is the best it possibly can be. So it's not surprising many brides and celebrants don't know where to start.

Get this bit right and the rest of the process becomes much easier and enjoyable.

Get it wrong and you’re letting yourself in for undue stress.

Imagine you’re are organizing a charity dinner, or hosting a birthday party or wedding, Do you want the guests to turn up at yet another bland function with the room turned out as it normally would be for a standard event or would you prefer to ‘wow’ them as soon as they enter the room?

I bet most of you said yes to the second part…lol

So now consider this. If your clients leave your event with a feeling that it was ordinary, they’re not going to recall that you managed to save a few quid. Similarly, if the event is hailed a triumph (and this must be your main goal) they’re not going to give two hoots that you spent a little extra.

If you can create an event that’s visually stimulating at the outset, then that sets the tone for the rest of your event. If you can then get the other elements right such as catering, lighting and production, entertainment or speaker then you’re practically guaranteed to have a successful event.

Visually stimulating events will make your clients and guests think about their surroundings and give them something to immediately talk about. That can be the ultimate ice-breaker.

Having an attention grabbing feel or look to your event immediately lets everyone connect on a similar emotional level which is generally a better way to start proceedings than waiting for someone to break the ice with some meaningless small talk.

 

Your event is an opportunity to have a day all about you. It’s a chance for you to be truly personal and share with your guests who you really are. Your individual personalities and styles can be reflected throughout your whole day - everything from what you wear to the type of ceremony you have, to the food choices you make and the decorations on your table top – so it’s time to get excited and be inspired!
