I think it is really important to have personal touches on your wedding day. Things that really make the day yours. There are SO many ways to do this, but these are a couple of my favorites.
 |
| A thank you note to all of your guests. Such a sweet, heartfelt leave behind. |
 |
| You know your friends are going to have aching feet and goosebumps at an outdoor September wedding, so why not make them more comfortable!? |
 |
| Choose a bridesmaid dress that the girls ACTUALLY love. |
 |
| Have fun! Make cocktail hour something a little different |
 |
| Add a monogram to anything and everything! |
What are your favorite wedding details that you’ve seen?
I’m in the middle of wedding planning and I am totally with you on the bridesmaid dresses. That said, it is not an easy feat! Thanks for the great ideas. xoxo
I love that little note to friends and family. Very sweet!
That’s so very true! I let my bridesmaids choose their own dresses. Same color, different styles. And I also provided flip flops for each and every guest. It was a huge hit!
I couldn’t agree more! My girls were in Anthro dresses and they loved them (plus they were less than $130 and some girls got them on sale for 50% off!)
I’m doing a “Wedding Week” series on my blog right now where I am recapping the details of our wedding ceremony and reception if you want to take a peek
Yes I definitely love this idea! I love the monograms and crafty note to family and friends, so sweet!
Loving this post! Great inspirations.
I am totally with you on the dresses they actually love! I am in a wedding next month and our dresses look like a horrible mistake from a 9th grade prom. Lets home they never find there way to facebook!
Great ideas!
Our wedding is outdoors so we’re handing out handmade woven fans for everyone. We’re also making super cute welcome bags filled with goodies from Baltimore (groom’s fam is from there) and Puerto Rico (I’m from there). That way everyone can get a taste of both our backgrounds

Oooh! I’m taking notes – these are some VERY cute ideas! I especially love the note to friends & family. xo
We went to a wedding where they had tons of games like this during the cocktail hour.. of course you need the right setting (there’s was at a barn) but it was such a relaxing and fun way to spend cocktail hour. Also love the shawls and flip flops. I think we will be doing something similar for our guests.
Love the design and message of that thank you card!
I love all of these! Special touches definitely make the day/night one to remember for everyone else, and not just the two of you. Great seeing you last night. Let’s get together soon!
Love the personal touches…it’s fun to do things that guests wouldn’t expect…change it up! I love the personalized thank you cards and how fun is the game during the reception! Great ideas!
I love the game… and those perfect cookies!
Love the monogram cookies and the idea of choosing a dress that the girls actually like ! Love the dresses in the picture.

Yeah, the bridesmaids dresses are crazy good. Every bride thinks the dresses she chooses can be worn again, but the bridesmaid is always like, yeah right in her head. But these, these I’d wear for sure.
Love those monogrammed cookies. I love personal touches. I think my favorite weddings were the one’s that had the special little details here and there.
Great ideas! For my wedding last year, we took old family wedding photos, labeled them and displayed them in the reception foyer so that guests could take a look on the way in. It was also a nice way to honor those we love that are no longer with us.
I will be stealing ALL of your monogrammed cookies
Love all of these – such gorgeous and fun ideas!
So cute! I added scented sparkles to my wedding invites, sparkly gems to my bouquet and to the flowers on the centerpieces. It’s all about the personal touches!
I think my favorite was a chocolate bar at the end…they had these *towers* of the most beautiful gourmet chocolates and little boxes for you to fill, beautiful and *super* fun for the chocolate loving guest (ahem, ME)!
That thank you note is amazing!
love that bridesmaid dress!
and im with you – the best weddings have lots of personality!
I know the personal touches you add to your special day will be the loveliest of all…adore that bridesmaid shot- the dresses are perfect with the flowers.
I love that thank you note — so sweet! I went to a wedding this summer that had croquet, ladder ball and horseshoes during the cocktail hour. Everyone actually thought that was one of the most fun parts!
I agree, personal touches mean everything at weddings! And that first note is the best. Love it. xo Lisa
That Bikini looks HOT!
