So, we’ve compiled a list of minor touches you can use to make your guests feel at ease to enjoy all of the unforgettable experiences you spent so much time on throughout the process.
Now you might wonder what you should add to your wedding to make it unique and unforgettable. After going through plenty of overused, traditional, Pinterest/Instagram, and classical trends, we have curated a list of some special small touches that can make your wedding stand out, leaving behind awe-struck reactions.
Confetti Cannons
To add an unexpected element of surprise and whimsy, introduce confetti cannons to your wedding. These fun and exciting confetti explosions can be used in many different ways throughout your ceremony and reception. For example, you can walk down the aisle with confetti falling from the skies, kick off the reception with a fairytale first dance showered in confetti, use it at your photo booth, and the epic wedding exit.

Customized Stickers
Couples rarely think about the small things that make a big impression at weddings, but trust us…sometimes they make a bigger splash than your grand flower arrangements. And customized stickers at weddings are a perfect example of this. They are trendy, affordable, and fully customizable. And you can use them throughout the wedding. Add them into your wedding decor, especially in picture booths; include them in your wedding stationery and wedding fans when it’s hot. And that’s not all! Customized wedding stickers are the perfect addition to wedding favors and can even be added to the cake topper.
Getting a custom sticker designed to match your wedding theme and decor is inexpensive. There are many talented designers on Fivver (and other similar marketplaces). They create your graphic design, and when it’s ready to print, companies like CustomSticker have your back! So print them, stick them and watch your guest’s face light up with excitement.

Common activities include lawn games such as ring toss and cornhole. For more cerebral guests, giant chess boards are definitely an option. If the wedding happens to be held at a golf course, a few rounds at the driving range will be sure to please golf lovers!
