8 Ways To Make Sure Guests Remember Your Decor - Stonegate Manor

1. Consider a Theme

Themes are like play books. Once you pick your overall aura for your wedding everything else falls into place. Choose a theme that reflects you and your partners one of a kind style and personality. Deciding on a theme will also help you clearly communicate your ideas with your florist, bakers, caterer, DJ and other vendors.

2. Table Setting

Think about adding a unique touch to your dinner table. A narrative tables cape is just the thing your guests talk about long after your wedding. Incorporate unexpected centerpieces, characteristic menus, or distinctive dish ware. Your table setting reflects your personality and infuses your wedding theme to a whole new level.

3. Lounge Vibe

Offer your guests a comfortable and inviting lounge area to relax and converse during your party. Setting up a few couches and chairs often encourages guests to get to know each other and take a break from the dining, drinking and dancing. A settee area is also a great way to customize your space and tie-in your thematic decor.

4. Something to Sip

Having something set out for your guests to drink during your ceremony keeps them comfortable. It’s a nice gesture and can be a saving grace if there are toddlers or kids watching your ceremony. Consider lemonade, iced tea, cider, there are endless options!

5. Games

If you have the space set out some yard games for your guests! This is a creative way to keep your guest occupied during cocktail hour! Giving you and your partner some extra time to take photos or just to have a minute alone and catch your breath.

6. Dessert Display

Ditch the traditional wedding cake stand and design a fabulous dessert area! The confection table is a focal point of your reception. It is also one of the sweetest ways to impress your guests! Feature a fun and delicious display for guests to enjoy both with their eyes and appetites.

7. Fabulous Florals

Floral arrangements tie together subtle details in a big way that your guests will surely notice! Simply “make it yours - do what you like” encourages Stella Event Design, a local florist in Southwest Michigan. No matter your floral choice, their impact will surely be a highlight of your day.
