Every bride wants to plan an unforgettable wedding day that everyone will love. First things first, when planning your wedding think about you as a couple, your personality, what you love…the day should be a reflection of YOU!
Want to be different and have a unique wedding reception that guests will talk about for months to come? We have put together our favourite unique wedding reception ideas that you might not have thought of. Whether you love laid back weddings, stylish, rich cultural or ‘WOW’ weddings we are sure there will be an idea you love.
Picnic wedding receptions are a totally unique idea and a fun way to celebrate your marriage in a laid-back manner. Picnic weddings can be as simple or formal as you want. You could have a DIY buffet style set up of food and a barrel full of drinks, or a formal seating with waitresses serving canapes and bubbles in crystal champagne glasses. This picnic-style of wedding reception is also perfect for the kids. What we love about picnic wedding receptions is the creativity you can have in planning and design.
