Weddings are always wonderful, but with so many happy events taking place each year, when it comes to your own nuptials what can you do to ensure they stand out from the crowd? Take a look at these five tacks you can try to give your big day the edge.

1. Make magic!

Hiring a performer like a magician or juggler to entertain guests at your wedding is a great idea. There's usually a bit of waiting around as the wedding party get photos taken and a performer will keep everyone happy and help to break the ice too! Or you could try hiring entertainers that will also make great photo ops for your guests such as stilt walkers or even Las Vegas style dancing girls.

2. Warm Reception

Getting married overseas is more popular than ever and there are hundreds of different wedding destinations to choose from. Any guest attending a wedding on a beach in Mauritius or a medieval castle in Bavaria is bound to remember it, but bear in mind that this option will not work if you want lots of guests. If you are planning a wedding abroad make sure you budget carefully and give guests plenty of notice if you expect them to pay for their own trip.

3. Go Retro

Summer will see the release of the hotly anticipated 'The Great Gatsby' and the elegance of 1930's style lends itself perfectly to weddings so use the art deco era as your inspiration. You could even go the whole hog and encourage your guests to dress up too. If the idea of ​​a fancy dress wedding features then point people in the right direction to hire costumes on your invitation, that way you'll have much more chance of all your guests taking part.

4. Hire a Photobooth

Photobooths are currently the hottest wedding trend out there, especially since pop royalty Marvin from JLS and Rochelle from the Saturdays hired one for their big day. Photobooth hire is a fab addition to any wedding reception and will give guests a wonderful memento of your special event. You can find photobooth hire online easily and can also purchase disposable cameras for each table at your reception so your guests can create their own photos.

5. Easy Eating

If you need a fabulous feast for your guests that they will not forget in a hurry, but you do not want to blow half of your budget on food then you could opt for a spit roast. You can hire everything you need online including chefs and serving staff and choose from lots of different types of food, including vegetarian options.

Conclusion

Try one of these tips to give your wedding a unique edge and ensure that your big day is one to remember.
