Want a wedding that means more to you? Then, you need to personalize it. That doesn’t mean inscribing everything with monograms or <\/span>making sure that<\/span> all your accessories are the same color. Instead, you can do much more to customize your wedding and make it truly personal. Read on to find out how.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Design and make your <\/span>own<\/span> invites<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Is there anything more personal than designing or decorating your own wedding invites? There are plenty of options to consider here as well. For example, if you know your way around Photoshop, you can create composite images and put together a professional-looking design.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Alternatively, you can get crafty and make your invites from high-quality cards and add embellishments that match your theme. No matter what way you choose, you’ll need to make some extra so you can keep and frame one after the big day is over.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another option is<\/span>, instead of sending physical invites, to do email ones<\/span> and have a wedding website. Fortunately, you don’t have to be a seasoned designer to create a <\/span>great-looking site <\/span><\/a>with all the info for your wedding as there are plenty of drag-and-drop site options.<\/span> With some of these specially made for weddings, you can personalize your site with lots of <\/span>wonderful<\/span> options and assets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dye your dress with your favorite color<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Some people get nervous when I talk about <\/span>dying wedding dresses<\/span><\/a>, but the truth <\/span>of the matter<\/span> is that if you truly want something that no one else will have<\/span>, <\/span>and that means something to you, dying your dress is a great option. There are many ways <\/span>in which you can<\/span> do this <\/span>as well<\/span> including getting a professional to do it for you or applying a dip dye effect at the bottom of your skirt.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If completing your wedding dress, an item that is often one of the most expensive we <\/span>ever<\/span> buy in our lifetimes is just too much, then you can consider some other options as well. One is to choose a dress that is already made in your favorite color<\/span>, and the<\/span> good news is that plenty of wedding dress designers are embracing color now with pink, lilac, pale blue and sage green dresses <\/span>being<\/span> available.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Making changes and adding embellishments can also give you a one-of-a-kind look for your wedding dress. One example <\/span>of this<\/span> is when brides take a vintage gown, perhaps worn by their mother or grandmother, and have it altered to fit them and give <\/span>it<\/span> a more modern look. Often, the skirts <\/span>are kept<\/span> intact while the bodice <\/span>is reworked<\/span> to make it unique. Appliquees are also <\/span>a wonderful<\/span> way of making a more generic dress unique, as is adding a handmade belt or bow to the back of your gown.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Add an embroidered leather, denim, or sequin jacket<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

A suggestion for brides with a rebel soul is to add a biker-style jacket made from leather, pleather, denim, or sequins, which can be a great way to make your wedding outfit fun and unique. Such jackets usually come with embroidery on the back with ‘Mrs’ or their new surname and can be worn after the ceremony instead of a wrap. They also look super awesome in photos, and you can have them made in any color you like!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
