Bringing That Wow Factor To Your Special Day.....
Your wedding day will be the one of the best days of your life, some people will say that their special day was on par with the day they met their partner or gave birth to their children!
It will also be a day of dreams and big expense and these days we can have whatever we want for our Wedding day as long as our budget allows.
Gone are the days where there is just a ceremony followed by the reception and evening party, some weddings are held over a few days with weeks of parties leading up to the day itself and the celebrations on the day are wide and varied with many couples seeking something different for their day to make the wedding day more memorable providing a wow factor for their guests.
Here are some ideas of how you can get that Wow Factor at your Wedding....
Arrival/Departure of the Bride/Groom
The arrival and departure of the Bride and Groom are defining moments in the wedding day, this could be when they arrive for the ceremony, when they arrive at the Reception after they have got married or when they leave at the end of the evening.
Each of these moments are special and can be made even more so by using an alternative form of transport than a car.
You could choose a fancy car of course but what about your favourite sports car that could be hired for the day, a vintage London Bus or a stretch limousine.
There are other options like arriving on a horse, using a horse and carriage, a special truck, themed vehicle, or Helicopter and I’ve even read about a couple who arrived at their wedding in a Hot Air Balloon!
The Ring Bearer
The person who brings the ring to the Wedding is traditionally the Best Man or Woman but there are some alternatives to this such as asking a child or another member of the family.
I’m sure that most people have seen photos of dressed up pets at Weddings taking on the role of Ring Bearer these are normally Dogs but also include Cats, Rabbits and Horses.
Some people have looked for something different to get that wow factor at their wedding such as having Alpacas, Reindeers, Owls and Mini Horses as their ring bearers and these ideas are guaranteed to impress your guests!
The Bridal Wear
The Wedding dress will be the most special dress anyone will buy and this might the chance to show of their individuality, it is also a chance to get another wow factor into your day.
You could choose something themed to show off to your guests perhaps you want to be different and pick a colour other than white.
Some people choose to go big with their dresses and have large trains and flamboyant designs you could secretly add some lights to your dress to really stand out which will be great when the lights go down and you enjoy your first dance!

The Decorations
Your Wedding venue may give a spectacular view and you have a natural wow factor to give to your guests, you might want to theme your day to give it that X-factor.
There are so many ideas of the type of decorations that will give you that extravagant feel on your day there are flower walls, balloon arches, flowers and wood slices but what about lots of twinkling lights, Ice sculptures or a Margherita Fountain instead of the normal chocolate fountain to make your day stand out.
Entertainment
Entertainment at a Wedding is how you keep your guests happy during the celebrations and there are many points for the duration of the day when entertainment can be laid on so go wild with your ideas on how to impress your guests.
The standard Wedding entertainment includes a DJ and disco for the evening function but there are other times throughout the day where entertainment can be included.
Music doesn’t need to be just from a disco or with a DJ, hiring a band is a particular favourite and there are a wide range of bands around that can provide amazing sets but what about considering something a bit different like a Strong Quartet, Brass Band, a Harpist, Saxophonist or a Trombonist to entertain your guests after your ceremony.
There are lots of unusual ideas around for party entertainment like tattooist, caricaturist, artists, belly dancers, mechanical bulls, belly dancers, stilt walkers, led light suit dancers and cigar bars to name just a few!
Food and Drink
The food and drink you choose is an important part of the Wedding and it will be remembered by your guests long after if its bad or if it is spectacular! Being one of the items that cost a great deal in your budget there are many chances to get the wow factor in here.
You could offer a free bar which will always be welcomed but have you thought about special drinks that could be served like laying on a cocktail or sundae bar.
Grazing Tables and Food Stations are popular choices these can be filled with lots of colourful foods that everyone can enjoy including some personal favourites of the happy couple.

Engaging your guests during the reception is key to transforming ordinary moments into extraordinary experiences. When everyone feels connected and entertained, the joy of your special day multiplies, creating vibrant energy that lingers long after the last dance.
The world of ice cream is undergoing a delicious revolution. Gone are the days when options were limited to vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry. Today, adventurous palates seek out bold and unconventional flavors that push the boundaries of this beloved treat. From lavender-infused scoops to sweet-savory surprises like olive oil ice cream, these innovative creations promise a flavor journey that tantalizes the senses.
In today's fast-paced world, our backyards often play second fiddle to our busy lives. Yet, they hold immense potential for peace and rejuvenation. Imagine stepping outside to a tranquil oasis, where the worries of the day fade into the melody of chirping birds and rustling leaves. A serene outdoor space isn't just an escape; it's a refuge that nurtures your mind and body.
Wedding planning can often feel like navigating a maze. With countless decisions to make and details to organize, couples today face the challenge of creating their dream day while juggling busy lives. Luckily, technology has stepped in as a reliable ally for engaging couples and wedding planners alike. The rise of innovative tools has transformed what was once a daunting task into an exciting adventure filled with endless possibilities.
In an era where food trends come and go faster than you can say "bon appétit," one delightful classic is making a triumphant comeback: the humble fish and chip van. These mobile kitchens are popping up at festivals, weddings, and parties, drawing crowds with the enticing aroma of crispy batter and fresh fish. Beyond their traditional appeal, they represent a unique fusion of nostalgia and modern culinary innovation that captivates food lovers of all ages.
In today's fast-paced work environment, the heart of any thriving organization lies in its team spirit. A united workforce fosters collaboration, sparks creativity, and drives success. When employees feel connected, they are more likely to engage deeply with their work and each other. Whether tackling projects or brainstorming new ideas, a strong sense of camaraderie can elevate performance to remarkable heights.
As you plan your dream wedding, every detail holds a special meaning. From the flowers to the venue, each choice reflects who you are and tells your love story. One of the most personal aspects of this celebration can be found right at your feet: heirloom shoes. These treasured pieces carry not just style, but also family history and memories that span generations. Wearing them transforms a simple accessory into a powerful symbol of connection—linking you to those who came before you on a day that is uniquely yours.
When you think of fish and chips, what comes to mind? For many, this classic dish evokes memories of cozy seaside towns or bustling city streets. But the journey from ocean depths to your favorite food truck is a story worth telling. It’s not just about satisfying our cravings; it’s about culture, community, and the connections we share through food.
Ice cream has a magical way of transporting us back in time. Who can resist the creamy nostalgia of childhood summers? The joy of a dripping cone on a hot day, or the comforting scoop from your favorite local shop holds a special place in our hearts. Classic flavors like vanilla and strawberry are more than just treats; they’re delicious reminders of carefree moments shared with friends and family.
Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming, especially with rising costs and endless options. But there’s good news for couples dreaming of a stunning celebration without the hefty price tag. The trend of budget-conscious weddings is on the rise, and it proves that you don’t need to break the bank to create an unforgettable experience. More couples are embracing the idea that luxury isn’t defined by how much you spend, but by the thoughtfulness behind each choice.
