Everyone wants their wedding to be the best, with unique, interesting and unusual features which help it stand out from the rest and make it really memorable for their guests.

Fortunately, there a plenty of ways to do exactly that, with innovative ideas which are budget-friendly to boot. Here are our 10 “wow” factor wedding ideas which are sure to create lots of laughter, intrigue and appreciation.

1). Polaroid guest book

This novel idea is similar to ‘for hire’ photo booths which have popped up in many weddings. However, instead, you supply a Polaroid instant-photograph camera and a book where guests can take a snap, stick it in the book and then write an accompanying note. It’s a fantastic album to keep which you can look back on time and time again.

2). “Here comes the bride” giant balloon

All eyes will naturally be fixed on you when you walk down the aisle, but a charming addition to the proceedings can be this “Here comes the bride” giant balloon for someone to carry along with you! If you don’t feel like taking it down the aisle, then it’s still a great feature which can be enjoyed in any setting.

3). “Please don’t take my drink” coaster

This drinks coaster displays “Please don’t take my drink, I’m dancing”. It’s a cute addition to any table and may even warn off overly-eager glass collectors!

4). “Ring security” page boy t-shirt

This adorable page boy t-shirt is printed with the text “Ring Security” and will certainly raise a few smiles amongst guests.

5). Dancing shoes or flip flops

Making cheap and comfortable shoes or flip flops available for guests to put on when dancing is sure to go down well, especially for those wearing unruly high heels.

6). Hen night guest book

This hen night guest book will allow your hen party guests to sign it and write their own personal messages to you which you can cherish in the years ahead. Flick through it any time to bring back fond memories and a lot of laughs!

7). A signature cocktail

How about creating your own custom cocktail related to the theme of your wedding with a name of your choice? It’s an elegant touch which adds a bit of personalisation to the drinks menu.

8). Sparkler send-off

A send-off with your guests waving sparklers looks truly beautiful and adds a touch of magic to any wedding. It’s also a superb photograph opportunity which will take pride of place in any wedding album.

9). Personalised CD playlist for guests to take home

A great keepsake for your wedding guests is a personalised CD playlist containing the songs you’ve all enjoyed together during your special day. Guaranteed to evoke happy memories.

10). Beer barrow

What’s better than a beer? A wheelbarrow of beer! Load it up with the most popular beers and cover with a few bags of ice. It will go down a treat. This is a particularly good idea if your after-party is wholly or partly located outdoors, such as a sunny garden.
