Some ideas for the most beautiful day of your life

For your out-of-town guests…

Many friends and relatives will travel far to be with you in this joyous occasion. Think how much it would please them to find a present from the bride and groom waiting for them in their hotel room. Such welcoming ideas could be some chocolates in rice paper and a fragrant candle that will immediately make the room more cosy and warm. You could also add a hand-written note, signed from the bride and groom.

Wedding cake – Decorative detail...

The cake’s decoration is the detail that will make this cake stand out and colour it with a note of your personality. Ribbons, flowers, glazed or caramel fruit, feathers, shells or a combination of any of these will create a personalised result. The wedding cake is usually decorated with flowers in the same colours as the reception decorations. Flowers will add a fragrance to the cake, as well as colour to make it rich and majestic.

Many brides shun the traditional white-frosted cakes and choose chocolate or caramel frosting. You can use your imagination and the confectioner’s advice to choose a different colour, like salmon pink, lilly purple or sky blue. Don’t hesitate to ask your confectioner to use his skilled hand to decorate the wedding cake.

Intrigue your guests…

During the reception you can be sure that those present are experiencing the events in a totally different way than you. Give them the chance to show you their impression of the reception, by putting an easy-to-use camera and some instructions on each table. Ask them to take photographs and ask a friend to collect the films after the evening is over. The couple always wants to be with every single guest at the same time, throughout the reception, and not miss a thing – which is impossible, of course. Let your guests take photographs of all happenings and events for you. This will allow them to participate more actively in the reception, while giving you photograph for an exciting album.
