Unconventional Ideas
Unconventional Stationery
Invitations and stationery don't have to follow classic caligraphy rules. Instead, opt for a fun motif or a personalized flow chart documenting the story of how you met.

Unconventional Color Schemes
Just because it's a wedding doesn't mean it has to have a pastel color scheme. Take inspiration from your venue and your favorite color combinations to create your ideal environment.

Unconventional Dinner
Who says you even need seats? Blankets or plush floor pillows make great seating for a relaxed picnic wedding, particularly if you have a great view, or a lot of children in attendance.

Unconventional Dessert
Cake doesn't have to be a part of the picture. Why not try individual servings of milk and cookies? Or even create an elaborate cheese board like this if you don't have a sweet tooth?
