Often,
it is the small touches and unique details that
make one wedding stand out from the rest.
We share with you some of these inspiring ideas.

The
wedding ceremony, whether religious or cultural
in nature, presents many opportunities for special
touches. The creative use of flowers at church
and the incorporation of traditional elements
such as the tea pouring ceremony that the Chinese
observe are good photo opportunities.
An adherence to tradition is reflected
in these Chinese teacups, a necessity for the traditional
ceremony where the newly weds serve tea to their elders

Table
settings reflect the type of menu served during
the banquet. Other than the crockery and cutlery,
details such as colour combinations in terms of
table linen, unique centrepieces and place settings
are often a topic of conversation among guests
seated at the table.

a 'dummy'
ceremonial wedding cake hands down

Guests
with a discerning eye can often pick out small
details. In this sense, the amount of work necessary
to include these special touches is worth every
effort.

Tip
: A handwritten place card, similar in design
to the invitation perhaps, is a unique way of
guiding guests to their seats at each table. A
'thank you' message could also be incorporated.
