Are you a modern bride that is looking for eccentric ideas for your wedding? During the past decade, many couples have stepped outside of the traditional scheme of having a wedding and have come up with a number of outrageous ideas. While a few common wedding traditions may never fade away, modern brides and grooms are paving the way for new practices in the wedding industry. From exchanging vows while skydiving to outrageous bridesmaids gifts, contemporary weddings are taking a huge turn in history. Let's explore a few of these not so average wedding ideas.
Surprise! Have you ever attended a surprise wedding? Your answer would probably depend on who is being surprised. A recent celebrity hosted a "party" at his home in Los Angeles, but to his guests' surprise it was actually a wedding for he and his fiancé. This is the perfect idea for a couple that is not expecting wedding gifts.
Bridesmaids Gifts For the most part bridesmaids expect to shell out at least $300 for their wedding attire, makeup, and hair. Most girlfriends agree that the wedding expenses are worth the tradeoff for the opportunity to support the bride, look beautiful on the wedding day, and to plan a bridal shower on the bride's behalf. They even get a special bridesmaids gift out of the deal! If you are in a financial position to do so, you may consider paying for your bridesmaid's attire, makeup, and hair. Another unique idea to express gratitude to your bridesmaids is for the groom to present your girlfriends with a small token of appreciation. It would be his way of saying, "Thank you for supporting my bride".
Same Day Wedding When a couple decides to get married, there is no law that states that they must wait to get married. You and your significant other might consider getting engaged and married all on the same day. This will cut out the hassle of planning an elaborate wedding. Yes, it is true that you will miss out on involving your girlfriends, but look at this way...you won't have to worry about buying bridesmaids gifts!
There are hundreds of ways to make your wedding not only unique, but outrageous as well. For more nontraditional wedding ideas, you might consider surfing the Internet and reading bridal magazines. Word of mouth is also a great way to solicit great wedding tips. Most couples are dying for an opportunity to tell their story.
