Your wedding is one of the most memorable days of your life, so it’s natural to want every detail to be perfect. However, with so many decisions can be made it’s easy to become overwhelmed! Every couple is unique, but if you’re looking for some starting points to kick off your planning, read on our top five ideas for an amazing Wolverhampton wedding.
A unique venue helps to set the tone for your special day and ensures that guests enjoy a celebration to remember! There are many classic wedding venues in the Wolverhampton area, but if you’re looking for something a bit more unusual why not consider an art gallery, stadium or converted factory.
If you’re looking for a larger Wolverhampton wedding venue, the Molineux Stadium has space for up to 500 guests and a range of elegant suites that can be customised to your tastes. The largest, the WV1 club, also includes stunning floor to ceiling views across the pitch and plenty of space for guests to dance.
It’s natural to want a wedding that reflects your uniqueness as a couple, so think about those personal touches that will set your special day apart. Options are endless, from personalised wedding favours to creating a unique monogram of your initials for place settings and signs. A bespoke signature drink is a nice way to personalise the wedding toast, or name reception tables after words or places that mean something to you as a couple.
Food is an integral part of your big day, whether you opt for a formal sit-down meal or more relaxed sharing plates. To create a menu to remember, focus on the details that are unique to you as a couple, whether that’s an amazing dish you’ve enjoyed on holiday or an elevated version of your favourite meal to cook at home.
Always ask any potential Wolverhampton wedding venues about their catering policy; some will have a dedicated in-house catering team whereas others will allow you to choose your own external caterers. However, most venues with an in-house team will be more than happy to work with you to craft a bespoke menu and cater to any dietary requirements.
Music and dancing are essentials for any wedding reception, but what about adding something more unusual? A wedding band is a popular tradition for a reason, but how about adding some games, a karaoke station or even a magician.
Circus themed entertainment has also risen in popularity in recent years, with couples hiring acrobats, stilt walkers and even fire breathers to entertain guests at their reception. Retro fairground games have also soared in popularity, and you could even make some yourself to make the budget go further.
Your wedding day is all about celebrating you as a couple, but it’s important to take care of guests’ comfort too. Once you’ve made the big decisions like the venue, guest list and food, it’s time to take care of those small details. A seemingly minor detail like ensuring there’s enough chilled water can go a long way to ensuring everyone has a magical evening.
Additional comfort details like spare flip flops (to save dancing feet in heels!) or blankets if people get cold can help make your wedding an event to remember.
