SECTION 1

Invites and Save the Date Ideas

1. Photo Booth Save the Dates 
Super affordable and super cute – go to a photo booth and take a bunch of shots of you both holding save the date signs and simply send them out! It’s a good way of still sending a save the date but saving the expense for the invitations.

2. Wedding Pencil
This is a really lovely idea and it gives your guests a keepsake for the wedding already. It also gives them no excuses to forget the day! You can buy these lovely invites here.

3. Themed
It’s a little geeky but we love it! Why not make your wedding invites something that you both love like Monopoly, Comics or maybe even the Marauder’s Map in Harry Potter!

4. Invite to the Best Man
For the members of your bridal party, you may want to do something a little extra. Give your best man a cigar, hip flask or some other manly gift asking him to be there for you on the day! Buy this cigar box here.

Seating Plan Ideas

8. UKbride’s Table Planner 
Before the big day, you need to actually plan the tables out. The easiest way to do that is with this table planner (it’s free!). You can change the amount of tables, size of tables, number of seats, number of guests and even the names of tables and guests! Super easy and you can just download and print when you’re done.

9. Pockets
Keep things really need with colourful pockets! It also makes it a surprise for guests to pull out a card with their table number/name on so adding a touch of fun! DIY this seating plan using these instructions.

11. Rustic Place Cards
Looking at creating unique place cards for guests? This is a really easy, clever and super affordable idea. In fact, it’s pretty much free minus the paper! You need a thick branch of a tree, a small saw (careful), paper and a pen.

12. Picture Frame Seating Plan
Another affordable DIY seating plan idea is to frame the tables and the names at those tables. Use really different frames to create a really beautiful seating plan like this one! You can get fairly affordable frames from places like Ikea or even borrow your own.

13. A Sweet Treat
If you’re not going crazy on your wedding favours, combine your favour with your place cards! Ferrero Rochers make a lovely little sweet present and a good base for a place card.

14. Polaroid Places
This idea may take a bit of preparation beforehand but can look fantastic! You need to check you have photos of each and every one of your guests, and if you don’t, ask for selfies and don’t tell them what it’s for…it’s a bit of a DIY job but you could get a wedding planner to sort all of it out for you. Elise Events created this one.

15. Place Cards with Personality
You might want to do something a little quirky to represent all of your guests’ personalities. The above works quite well and it’s fun to include childhood photos, but to give a little favour as well as your place card, we love this Lego idea!

16. Table Names by Rock Band
Are you both really into your bands or perhaps there are a selection of films that mean something to you? Why not name your tables after them! We love this Rock n Roll idea!

17. Woodland Theme
If you’re having a woodland-themed rustic wedding or perhaps a wedding in autumn or winter, this idea is super simple, really easy and looks fantastic! Name the table names different trees and create a lovely setup like this.

Wedding Decoration Ideas

18. Budget Friendly Seating
Instead of spending a fortune on outdoor seating for your wedding, this really simple DIY idea solves the issue and looks rustic and fun. This is an especially good idea if you live on a farm or have family who do. You can buy the hessian covers pictured below here.

Hay Bale Seating Area.

19. DIY Confetti
Another budget-friendly decorating idea is to make your own confetti. All you need is a hole punch and some dried leaves! Do this in the lead up to the wedding and get your maid of honour or best man to hand little cups of them after the ceremony.

Or get your dream confetti here!

20. Let Love Glow
A way to add fairy lights around your wedding, hanging from ceilings or trees or in little display areas, is to buy battery-operated fairy lights here and little mason jars here. It will only cost you about £3 – £6 per jar and they look super cute!

21. Fairy Light Frenzy
Whilst we’re on the subject of fairy lights, we recommend you going a little crazy with them. They make anything, including weddings, look incredible and they’re affordable ways of decorating a space simply.

22. A Helping Hand
In our experience after speaking to hundreds of brides, friends and family love to help you out or contribute in some way. Instead of having a conventional aisle, get friends and family to bring their favourite chairs and sofas or if you’ve got a big budget, hire a selection for the wedding day! This display was designed by Love & Splendor and the photographer was Ryan Ray.

Guest Activity Ideas

23. Wedding Guestbook Video
As a bit more of a modern and more practical way for your guests to leave you messages, why not get them to video a short clip! It’s easier for them, easier for you and it adds so much more personality when looking back. You get a special wedding video too aside from your videographer.

24. Wedding Bucket List
This is a really fun idea and will get your guests to be creative. Get a bucket and ask your guests to write an idea or an adventure or something crazy on a slip of paper and drop it into the bucket. You can do all the things they’ve suggested over your lifetime together!

25. The Honeymoon Fund
Instead of bringing lavish gifts, get your guests to bring money for the honeymoon fund! It’s often more needed and practical, and you can have a jar like this for your guests to contribute to.

Honeymoon Fund Jar.

26. Disposable Camera Snapshots
Simple silly pics of your guests throughout the day will be cherished when you get these images back! Just make sure they’re not in the reach of children or you may have a reel of ceiling and floor shots…

“Without you our puzzle wouldn’t be complete.” This is a really unique and fun way for your guests to leave a little message. You can buy this one on Etsy.

29. Blankets for Colder Days
If you’re not in a particularly sunny spot or time of year and your wedding is going to be predominantly outside, it might be a nice idea to offer blankets to guests. You can display this in a really sweet way like this below! Get affordable blankets from Ikea and the baskets online or from another home store.

30. Dancing Shoes

33. Fingerprint Guestbook
The problem with guestbooks is that you read them once and then they go in a drawer and never get opened again. With a fingerprint guestbook, you can have a beautiful piece of artwork on display in your house that will remind you of your wedding everyday.

34. A Date Jar

Wedding Gift Ideas

67. The Maid of Honour Gift Box

68. A Gift for the Main Gal

Food and Drink Ideas

76. Pizza Bar
Instead of formal, sit-down catering, why not have something fun like a pizza bar? Everyone loves pizza, you can easily get vegan/vegetarian versions and it avoids the stuffiness people with weddings! Suggested sign phrase: “he has a pizza my heart.”

Get amazing wedding caterers here!

77. His & Hers Cocktails
This is a lovely idea, expressing your personality as a couple and giving your guests awesome drink ideas. Your bartenders may appreciate this too instead of lots of people choosing lots of different drinks!

Paige Jones Photography.

78. Frozen Flowers
Another really lovely way to jazz up a drink is putting edible flowers in the ice cubes! It makes your drinks look really pretty, and when the ice melts, you’ll have a pretty flower sitting on top of your drink. It’s just to make your drinks more ‘wedding-y.’

79. Meringues for Marriage
Instead of a wedding cake, why not have a tiered meringue cake? It’s something everyone can help themselves to and it looks amazing! This one is from the Meringue Girls.

80. Rosé-dipped Strawberries
This may be something you can get younger kids involved with to help out before the big day! Cover strawberries in melted chocolate of all different colours and add a sprinkling of glitter. This was made by Tara Milk Tea.

81. A Cheese Cake
This is a really popular trend in weddings at the moment; a savoury cake made out of cheese! It’s a great option if you and your guests don’t have sweet teeth and you love cheese! You can get heart-shaped wheels too #justsaying.

82. Melted Marshmallows
Instead of a dessert table or a cake, why not have a marshmallow bar? This is an especially good idea if part of your wedding will be outside or perhaps in a marquee for that ‘around the fireplace’ feel to it.

S'more Station.
S’more Station.

 

83. Build Your Own Burger Bar
If you want to be really relaxed and informal, why not just have a build your own burger bar? It’s loads more affordable than other options and puts a light-hearted spin on catering.

84. Split the Cake
Cut your cake in half – bear with us – and fill the opening with flowers, chocolates or anything you wish! It may even save you some money if you decide to have a sixth of your cake cut out to fill with something different. It just makes your cake look really unique.

Get a dream cake maker here!

 

85. Midnight Snacking
For later on in the evening, hours after the wedding breakfast and after plenty of drinks, your guests – and you – may feel a little peckish. Organise midnight snacks like little pack-ups for when people start to crave food. You could even give them as wedding favours!

Elyse Hall Photography.

86. Homemade Contributions
If you are really trying to save a bit of cash and the wedding is ever so slightly breaking your budget, get friends and family to help! Odds are they would love to, especially any bakers in the family. Get them to bring along their very best bake for the day and display as a cake table. The selection displayed are freshly made pies!

87. Personalise Your Drinks Bar
This is a really popular trend at the moment! Allow guess to ‘pimp’ their Prosecco by adding different flavours and items to a bar. It’s just a nice and simple way to add a bit of pizzazz to the day!

M&J Photography.

88. Sweetie Bar
Instead of a cake or desserts, just fill a table full of your favourite sweets! Express your personality as a couple and save a tonne of money just by going to your local supermarket and stock piling on sweets for the big day! Try to colour-coordinate too to make it look extra special!

 

89. The Booze Bath
1. Buy a tonne of you and your partners’ favourite beers. 2. Get a massive bath/receptacle of any kind. 3. Fill with ice. 4. Stick beers in. That is literally all you need to do for this amazing idea that will certainly put a smile on your guests’ faces!

90. Champagne & Candy Floss Cocktails
Make your wedding unique and memorable. It’s easy to do that with a couple of small upgrades from the norm, so instead of just Prosecco or Champagne as a welcome drink, add a handful of candy floss that will dissolve when the fizz is poured and tasty without!

Candy Floss Champers.

91. Wedding Cake Pops
Instead of a cake that looks pretty for a moment then needs cutting and distributing among guests before they leave, why not just have cake pops? They’re small enough to hand out like canapés, they’re small blasts of delicious cake and more affordable! For the recipe, click here.

Lecker & Co.

92. A Wall of Champagne
Instead of employing someone to hand out glasses of Champagne, simply create a wall to hold hundreds of glasses. You could even turn this into your table plan too with guests finding their named and numbered glass before finding their seat.

93. Cupcake Corner
Why not try cupcakes instead? Another more affordable and practical wedding cake idea (although one that definitely divides opinions). You can have lots of different flavours this way too and they can be homemade!

94. Drink Stations
If you’re wedding is going to be a long day in warm weather, it’s important to add refreshing drinking stations here and there for guests to quench their thirst.

95. A Donut Wall
Do we really need to go into detail about this one? It’s a wall of donuts! Who wouldn’t want this at their wedding? It’s so easy to DIY – just get a board, pegs/nails and a tonne of donuts. Create a beautiful feature wall like this one and of course entertain your guests all evening.

Just a Bit of Fun!

96. Ring Security

97. Wheel of Kisses!
Add a fun game to the day with a huge wheel of fortune and different kiss for each section of the wheel. Mix this up a little and put little dares for the guests to do on the wheel too..! It’s a bit of a big DIY job though.

98. Caricatures

99. Cardboard Cutouts
We’re unaware of the official names of these things…let us know if you have one! But the big cardboard cutouts with faces cut out for you to take funny photos in that you usually see at the seaside can also feature at your wedding! We recommend DIYing this and getting someone good at painting or you may be a dab hand yourself! Get them to get the dress and suit right!

100. Age Pictures Based on Table Numbers
If you can’t think of what to call your tables and settle on numbers, you can still make this element of your wedding fun! On the signs for each table, add a photo of you and your partner at that age. This is a really sweet idea and will give guests something to talk about. DIY it following these simple instructions.
