Creating a Special Day
January 5, 2016 2:37 pmA wedding day is all about openly sharing your love and commitment to another person. It is a celebration where the couples splash out on the important details to create a truly memorable special occasion.
Back in October the Chinese actress and singer Angelababy had an excessively elaborate wedding celebration which is reported to have cost in the region of £20million. Although she and her now husband Huang Xiaoming had officially married in a small private ceremony several months earlier, the couple threw an ostentatious wedding party for 2,000 guests in the city of Shanghai. No expense was spared for this special occasion, with the bride dressed in a hand sewn Dior dress and wearing a £1million wedding ring at the end of the ceremony.
Few people could ever consider a multi-million pound wedding, but whether you are planning a large wedding party or prefer the idea of a small gathering of your nearest and dearest, a few distinctive details can help to make the day feel truly special.
Wedding Outfits
The couple want to look their best on their big day and this typically means an elegant wedding dress for the bride and a suited and booted groom. Whilst you may have ideas about your dream outfit, it is worth trying on a number of options to find a style that really suits your figure and your personality.
It is also important to consider that you will be in this outfit all day, so as well as looking great, it needs to be comfortable. A minor alteration could make all the difference between you feeling fantastic or feeling like you’re being squeezed to the point of bursting. Even a very simple style can be personalised with a few added details, so you get the look you are after.
Relaxing Ride
The journey to the wedding venue is typically a mixture of excitement and nerves. You are conscious of being there on time, you are preparing to be the focus of attention for the day and you are hoping that all of your plans come off. As with the wedding outfit, finding a wedding car that provides both style and luxurious comfort is the key to making a grand entrance.
A classic sports car might look fantastic, but does it offer sufficient space and comfort for you and your wedding dress? It might not be a traditional choice, but a spacious and prestigious 4×4 Range Rover could be just what you need for a relaxing ride. It also offers plenty of room for transporting bride, groom and champagne to another destination following the ceremony.

Professional Photography
The role of a photographer is to help you collect long lasting memories of your big day. For this reason the photographer needs to understand and capture the personality of the couple and the event. An eye for interesting angles, capturing small details and making the most of natural light are some of the qualities of a great wedding photographer.
Most couples are looking for a good mix of formal and informal photographs for their wedding album, but they don’t want to feel that the photographer is permanently buzzing around and getting in the way of proceedings, so a subtle approach is often welcomed. From the early morning preparations to the late night dancing, a photographer can create treasured memories that reflect a wonderful day.
Fabulous Food
For the wedding guests, the food is a key part of their enjoyment of the day. Whether you are opting for a buffet, tea party or sit down meal, a few special touches can go a long way when it comes to the food. Seasonal menus, elegant presentation or a delightfully rich sauce can all help to transform the dining experience.
The Rings
If nothing else, the rings deserve to be a detail where thought and finances are invested. Whilst the ring plays a small part in the big day, it is the one thing that will be with you for the rest of your married life. It is the symbol of your commitment and will remain a constant reminder of your union long after the favours, table plans and bottles of champagne have been forgotten.
No matter what your wedding budget and preferences, an exclusive detail can make all the difference to your celebration, so what’s your priority?
