Vanessa of The Wedding and Event Creators is back with an inspiring blog for our Words Issue, sharing her tips for out of the box ways to incorporate words into wedding decor.
Planning a wedding allows you to add unique, personal touches to a celebration, and one innovative way to do this is through the creative use of words and typography in the decor. This can include custom neon signs with meaningful quotes or dates, specialty table numbers named after favourite books or travel destinations, and elegantly handwritten calligraphy on invitations and menus. You can also use linen fabric signage to display poems or song lyrics, playful cocktail signs, and a love letter guest book for heartfelt messages from guests. These elements not only enhance the visual appeal of the wedding but also infuse it with your personality and love story, leaving a lasting impression on everyone present.
We hope you enjoy these tips from Vanessa!
