How to Personalize Your Virtual Wedding
Virtual weddings aren’t necessarily new, but their popularity sure is. Whether you are planning the whole shebang virtually (you know, the getting ready, the walking down the aisle, the first dance and the big toasts) or opting to stream the vows and party at a later date, virtual has become the way to play it. As we are the experts here at LoveStream with all things virtual weddings, we thought we’d let you in on a few fun ways to personalize your big day and make it truly unique. Let’s share, shall we.
Create a Backdrop
Regardless of location — whether your ceremony is at your place of worship, in your living room or in your parents’ backyard, you still have an opportunity to jazz it up. Personalize your backdrop for your virtual wedding ceremony by incorporating twinkle lights, a flower wall, a custom calligraphed banner or an arbor with cascading greenery. There are so many options here and a backdrop will look oh-so-nice during your wedding live stream. It creates a great focal point, too, so that guests will never lose sight of you and your boo.
Cheers in Style
Prep your first “clink, clink” as newlyweds with custom toasting flutes or glasses. Perhaps you get your wedding date etched into the glass or add some funky fresh straws to your drink. Another option? Instead of champagne, sip on your favorite signature cocktail.
Treat Your Guests
This is not a necessity by any means but if you can swing it and have a little extra room in your purse (which you may, since LoveStream makes it a point to offer affordable wedding live stream packages to couples), surprise your guests with a little something extra. Maybe it’s that welcome bag that you can no longer deliver to their hotel (mail it instead), a recipe kit for your would-be reception’s signature cocktail, or a monogrammed koozie to keep that drink cold. The sky is the limit.
Find Your Sign
Customize your day with adorable signage, even if it is just seen by the two of you. We know virtual weddings are not the norm, so you might as well try and make them as normal as possible.
Plan a Virtual Activity
Cocktail hour definitely feels a little different virtually. Keep your virtual guests entertained with a fun virtual activity, like hiring a bartender to lead a cocktail class or a chef to demonstrate making that evening’s meal. Our Plus and Premium wedding live stream packages offer multiple camera streams, so bringing in a remote special guest is no biggie!
