Question: How do we personalize or customize our wedding?
Response: Personal vows (personal vows are different from love letters, read the love letters to each other on your honeymoon). The best personal vows are humorous.
Photos of you as a couple (avoid childhood photos or high school yearbook photos).
A short history of how and when you met on your wedding website page or newsletter or on the back of your ceremony program.
Bring in items that reflect your heritage or background.
If possible, create a menu that includes some of your favorite foods. At the wedding of William and Kate last April, Prince William requested that his favorite childhood cookies and cakes be served at of one of their receptions.
One of my personal favorite examples of personalizing a wedding occurred several years ago at a Victorian Bed and Breakfast. The Bride brought wedding photos of his and her parents and grandparents and placed them throughout the Grand Parlor (where the ceremony took place). She placed a small nosegay of cream-colored roses next to each photograph. And not to be outdone, the Groom, who is a professional musician, surprised his Bride by singing an original song written just for her at the end of the ceremony. And even though this wedding was planned and organized in less than thirty days, it was one of the most personal and memorable.
