A friend recently lamented that she wont be holding her wedding in her
hometown due to travel restrictions for many of her fiancé’s family members. We
wanted to find a way to help her honor her roots during her celebration and
here are a few of our ideas that anyone can incorporate into their own wedding:
Your state flower or tree can be used to make a wreath for the sanctuary
doors or for aisle decorations. Are there local artisans who make pottery,
baskets or candles that can be utilized during the ceremony? How about a pillow
embroidered with key locations and famous spots in your state to carry your
rings?
Spray yourself with a perfume that features the scent of your state
flower—and use it on future anniversaries to bring back the memories of your big
day!
During your reception, there are more opportunities to showcase the work
of local craftsmen via baskets for bread or favors, state themed glassware and
dishware. Locally made jams or specialty foods are perfect for favors or to eat
during the reception, as are cookies and other baked goods from your favorite
hometown bakery. Is your state known for being the birthplace of a food or
drink related company? How about displaying those items with tags explaining
the origins of the company?
Need more ideas? How about using the seeds of your state flower during
your farewell walk out of the reception or as a favor for your guests. Your
state bird can make for a lovely cake topper or as a part of your centerpieces.
Your state flag (or even your college logo) can be attached to drink stirrers
and maps of your hometown can be cut into darling confetti. There’s no reason
to leave your hometown out of the equation if it’s important to you. The
options are endless!
