With the customized, DIY spirit alive and well in the wedding industry, I thought I’d take a moment to highlight some particularly fun and creative things that I’ve come across around the web. Scroll on to get inspired!
This couple used their thumbprints to create a heart shape, enlarged it, then used it as a canvas for their guests to write them little messages. They’re then left with a personalized wall hanging that will forever remind them of their special day!

This couple included a temporary tattoo station in their reception! You can even get custom ones made to commemorate the occasion.

A handy cheat sheet to include in your invitation–a contact list! That way the (likely very busy) bride won’t be flooded with a barrage of questions on the big day.

Now this is one seriously festive wedding arch! A mix of balloons and fresh flowers stays cohesive when kept to a “shades of pink” color palette.

An outdoor event can sometimes mean trouble for those clad in high heels, especially for your bridal party who will have to stand through the ceremony. This couple planned ahead and cut plywood hearts for their bridesmaids to stand on, and even painted them to match the decor!

How adorable are these save the dates?! Including some cute childhood photos of the soon-to-be bride and groom adds a perfect personal touch.

Weddings tend to be tearful events, especially for the parents of the couple. This bride went the extra mile for her dad, including a message for him on a (likely necessary) handkerchief.

Boutonnieres are a great way to personalize the groom’s attire–brides shouldn’t get to have all the fun with their accessories! If he’s a great cook, maybe include some fresh herbs or a tiny carrot in his boutonniere. If he’s into sailing, perhaps a bit of rope tied into a nautical knot. The options are seemingly endless!

This couple spent the months leading up to their wedding folding tiny paper cranes out of meaningful scraps of paper, which then became their altar! You can go one step further by enlisting the help of family and close friends in the crafting of these cranes.

This couple asked their guests to “pencil in” their wedding day, and then gave them the writing tool to do so! Too cute.
