Blankets and sparklers provide a lovely touch to an al fresco seating area.” – Sara, To Have and To Hire Events “Neon signs are such a popular option adding a modern touch to any wedding. Don’t forget to utilise yours for those all-important photo moments throughout the day as a couple and with your guests.” – Sara, To Have and to Hire Events “Fireworks are a fabulous way to end the night if the venue allows. Alternatively, any style of human tunnel creates a sense of togetherness, where your guests can wave sparklers or hold jars containing fairylights.” – Merie, Orange Rose Ceremonies “Hiring a live painter to document your day is a lovely idea. A fingerprint guest book is a more budget-friendly alternative and will also produce a work of art to treasure.” – Merie, Orange Rose Ceremonies www.capt uremybigday.com Balloonatics No longer restricted to children’s birthday parties, today’s balloon décor is chic and sophisticated. Check out our experts’ suggestions. “Floating balloon ceilings are a fun styling option, as they gently float above your guests’ heads. Colours can be tailored to match any palette and a fun option is to have it installed above a dancefloor or bar area to add to the party feel.” – Sara, To Have and To Hire Events “I do love a balloon drop at the end of the night, with messages attached or inside for guests when they land. Sometimes guests have to collect the words and put them together to make a message, which is a super-fun end to the night.” – Merie, Orange Rose Ceremonies “Balloons have seen a huge increase in popularity over the past year with many beautiful and stylish options available. We just love a personalised balloon as an alternative ‘thank you’ gift to flowers.” – Sara, To Have and To Hire Events “Add a modern twist to the night with a food truck outside providing guests with hot chocolates as they see you off and wish you well.” – Merie, Orange Rose Ceremonies
