Weddings are all about traditions! Many have been beloved by brides for generations, but there are some new trends that are quickly becoming popular with modern brides. Here are a few ideas for adding new twists to the traditional elements of your wedding.
Tradition — Tossing rice over the newlyweds as they exit the ceremony
New Take — Creative ideas guests will enjoy AND that will add beauty to the moment, like: blowing bubbles from pretty little bottles that coordinate with your wedding; waving pretty ribbon wands for a romantic send-off; waving sparklers to light up the event; tossing biodegradable rice puffs over the couple for a new take on tradition that keeps the environment in mind
Tradition — Lighting a unity candle to symbolize two becoming one
Tradition — Serving a multi-tiered wedding cake for dessert
New Take — Hosting a dessert bar with assorted sweets for guests to choose from; serving an ice cream buffet so guests can build their own sundaes; offering a bar for after-dinner gourmet coffees and signature drinks
Tradition — Guests clinking glasses to prompt the newlyweds to kiss at dinner
New Take — Spread the romance by drawing guests’ names from a bowl; when you kiss, the couples’ names you draw kiss, too!
