Top 10 Greatest Wedding Ideas from Pinterest

Organizing a wedding is a lot of work. For many, it feels like a marathon of

planning, where a years worth of activity is crammed into a couple of months.

From makeup, hair, decoration, cake, seating arrangements, RSVP cards, and

more, it can quickly become overwhelming.

However, if at any time during this chaotic process you find yourself with a bit of

free time, then feel free to check out 10 of the greatest wedding ideas currently

on Pinterest. With any luck, you will find something inspiring that you can use on

the upcoming day.

1. Unique Seating Charts

Pinterest is full of examples of weddings where people have revolutionized the

seating chart display. No longer simply index cards on a table, some have taken

the simple seating chart to an entirely new level. Some of the more popular

themes include having people’s name on etched glass, having each person and

seat be a tag on a string, having each seating tag also have its own gift (like a

tiny bottle of whisky!), or even having the seating chart made into a sculptured

work of art. Regardless of how you decide to do your seating chart, some of

these are just to amazing to pass up taking a look at.

2. Painted Leafs for Fall

For wedding happening during the fall, many people getting married tie into their

wedding the changing season. This can be done in a number of ways. One

popular way is to collect and paint leafs. With examples done in both gold and

silver colored paint, the end result is the perfect pad for writing an individualized

note to your guests. From simply being used as a fill in for a seating chart to

being customized to the point of having individualized messages of thanks, the

painted fall leaf is the perfect way to make your wedding memorable.

3. Guest Book Poster Made From Thumbprints

There is any number of ways that a guest book can be done, ranging from the

traditional to the unconventional. One idea from Pinterest includes a little of both

by having a guest book where either the names or a central image are made

from both the bride and the groom’s thumb prints. When using wet paint, the

thumb prints eventually dry to form a textured surface. This little addition helps

personalize the guest book poster, making it an excellent piece of artwork to later

have in your house.

4. The Cooler

When it comes to cooling beverages, many weddings hide the cooler. However,

there are those on Pinterest who do the reverse, turning their cooler into a central

work of art. One example in particular is a couple who turned a large, wooden

canoe into the cooler for their drinks. Being so long, it was the perfect container,

offering plenty of space for people to grab the beverages they want.

5. The Crossword on the Menu

Never a dull moment, some couples have included a crossword puzzle relating to

their life and wedding as a substitute for the menu provided at the table. The

crossword can be full of personal jokes, and things that both teach those

attending something more about both members of the wedding, as well as offer a

distraction.

6. The Rustic Touch

The farmer’s market wedding doesn’t have to happen in a farmer’s market or

barn to still bring about the rustic touch that comes with it. One of the best

wedding ideas on Pinterest includes rustic inspired decorations. From table

markers to utensils and guest books, there are many ways to make your wedding

feel less full of pomp and more an exciting family get together.

7. Embroidered Wedding Date For Something Blue

When it comes to having something blue, those on Pinterest offer a unique

suggestion. Embroider your name into the hem of your wedding dress! By

adding this little touch, you can personalize your wedding dress and use blue

yarn to fulfill the need for something blue.

8. The Parchment Wedding Sign

A classy touch, the parchment wedding sign helps to make the wedding feel

more relaxed. Hung outside the venue on a near by tree, it decrees that there is

a wedding taking place. The end result is a nice little touch.

9. Cake Chandelier

There are a million ways to decorate and present a wedding cake. One unique

way brought to you by Pinterest is to have the Cake Chandelier. The Cake

Chandelier includes a traditional white wedding cake held in the air on a clear

pedestal, with a chandelier hanging below it!

10. Wheat Bouquet

A simple replacement for the traditional flower bouquet, the wheat bouquet has

significance of its own, making it a visually attractive and symbolic replacement

to the traditional flowers.
