Top 10 Greatest Wedding Ideas from Pinterest
Organizing a wedding is a lot of work. For many, it feels like a marathon of
planning, where a years worth of activity is crammed into a couple of months.
From makeup, hair, decoration, cake, seating arrangements, RSVP cards, and
more, it can quickly become overwhelming.
However, if at any time during this chaotic process you find yourself with a bit of
free time, then feel free to check out 10 of the greatest wedding ideas currently
on Pinterest. With any luck, you will find something inspiring that you can use on
the upcoming day.
1. Unique Seating Charts
Pinterest is full of examples of weddings where people have revolutionized the
seating chart display. No longer simply index cards on a table, some have taken
the simple seating chart to an entirely new level. Some of the more popular
themes include having people’s name on etched glass, having each person and
seat be a tag on a string, having each seating tag also have its own gift (like a
tiny bottle of whisky!), or even having the seating chart made into a sculptured
work of art. Regardless of how you decide to do your seating chart, some of
these are just to amazing to pass up taking a look at.
2. Painted Leafs for Fall
For wedding happening during the fall, many people getting married tie into their
wedding the changing season. This can be done in a number of ways. One
popular way is to collect and paint leafs. With examples done in both gold and
silver colored paint, the end result is the perfect pad for writing an individualized
note to your guests. From simply being used as a fill in for a seating chart to
being customized to the point of having individualized messages of thanks, the
painted fall leaf is the perfect way to make your wedding memorable.
3. Guest Book Poster Made From Thumbprints
There is any number of ways that a guest book can be done, ranging from the
traditional to the unconventional. One idea from Pinterest includes a little of both
by having a guest book where either the names or a central image are made
from both the bride and the groom’s thumb prints. When using wet paint, the
thumb prints eventually dry to form a textured surface. This little addition helps
personalize the guest book poster, making it an excellent piece of artwork to later
have in your house.
4. The Cooler
When it comes to cooling beverages, many weddings hide the cooler. However,
there are those on Pinterest who do the reverse, turning their cooler into a central
work of art. One example in particular is a couple who turned a large, wooden
canoe into the cooler for their drinks. Being so long, it was the perfect container,
offering plenty of space for people to grab the beverages they want.
5. The Crossword on the Menu
Never a dull moment, some couples have included a crossword puzzle relating to
their life and wedding as a substitute for the menu provided at the table. The
crossword can be full of personal jokes, and things that both teach those
attending something more about both members of the wedding, as well as offer a
distraction.
6. The Rustic Touch
The farmer’s market wedding doesn’t have to happen in a farmer’s market or
barn to still bring about the rustic touch that comes with it. One of the best
wedding ideas on Pinterest includes rustic inspired decorations. From table
markers to utensils and guest books, there are many ways to make your wedding
feel less full of pomp and more an exciting family get together.
7. Embroidered Wedding Date For Something Blue
When it comes to having something blue, those on Pinterest offer a unique
suggestion. Embroider your name into the hem of your wedding dress! By
adding this little touch, you can personalize your wedding dress and use blue
yarn to fulfill the need for something blue.
8. The Parchment Wedding Sign
A classy touch, the parchment wedding sign helps to make the wedding feel
more relaxed. Hung outside the venue on a near by tree, it decrees that there is
a wedding taking place. The end result is a nice little touch.
9. Cake Chandelier
There are a million ways to decorate and present a wedding cake. One unique
way brought to you by Pinterest is to have the Cake Chandelier. The Cake
Chandelier includes a traditional white wedding cake held in the air on a clear
pedestal, with a chandelier hanging below it!
10. Wheat Bouquet
A simple replacement for the traditional flower bouquet, the wheat bouquet has
significance of its own, making it a visually attractive and symbolic replacement
to the traditional flowers.
