Every couple has their own story, which is why every wedding is unique. Aside from the obviously differences such as theme, setting or colour scheme, there are so many ways you can personalise your wedding and make it your own.
But if you’re thinking a bit outside the box for your big day it can be difficult to figure out who exactly can help, and where you’re able to find them.
So here are our suggestions on how to find unique wedding suppliers who offer something a little big different.

A celebrant who won’t officiate your ceremony
Some couples want their wedding officiated by someone who has known them forever, whether it’s a family member or close friend. However, it’s simply not feasible or cost effective for your favourite person to learn how to become, and then be officiated as a licensed marriage celebrant.
The good news is that there are many celebrants who offer services a little bit outside the norm. Folks like My Celebrant Buddy will manage all the legal parts of your wedding day beforehand so that you can have a friend manage the rest to pronounce you husband and wife. Other celebrants will attend your ceremony simply to pop in for the legal requirements and signing of the marriage license.
Research celebrants in your area to see who offers what and how they can help personalise your day.
A way to store your wedding dress
When the wedding is said and done many brides find themselves in a situation thinking “what are I going to do with the dress?” If you’re not looking to sell your dress on a pre-loved site, there are plenty of suppliers who offer ways to properly store or repurpose your wedding dress.
From properly storing your dress in official wrapping or a gorgeous box, to repurposing it into a sentimental outfit for a future child, what you do with your dress is up to you. Take a look at wedding services in your area to take a look at how you can store your dress down the track.
How to preserve your wedding flowers
Often we want to keep an element of our bouquet or even a gorgeous centrepiece for the wedding day. If this is the case, make sure you act quick to preserve your flowers in the best possible condition.
You could opt to have someone dry press your flowers for your photo album, dry them out and preserve that bouquet shape, or even have them crafted into a gorgeous tabletop feature or pair of earrings.
Whatever the case, wedding services or wedding flower suppliers in your local region should be able to help.
A high tea wedding setting
Not everyone wants to hire the traditional tables and chairs for a sit down dinner or cocktail style wedding. Boho weddings are becoming increasingly popular and with it are boho style weddings with a casual cushioned setting. And while catering or wedding hire services are often useful, there are other places to pick up on this trend as well.
If this is the sort of wedding you’re after but you can’t quite find the right person to go with, take a look at wedding styists or even branch out to those offering hens services to get those really boho cushioned seating arrangements.
You can even check out different wedding services if you’re looking for that tepee hire vibe.
Unique entertainment
Not everyone wants a band or DJ for their wedding. Live painted wedding portraits, caricatures, singing waiters, magicians, and even Cirque Du Solei style gymnasts are all available to make your wedding a day or night to remember.
If you can’t quite find what you’re looking for in wedding music check out other wedding services that are available in your area.
Wedding insurance
The average couple spends more than $30,000 on their wedding day, so it makes sense that you want to insure yourself for your big day. An illness or sudden family emergency could potentially disrupt plans, as could wild weather. If you want to make sure that you’re securing yourself against the risk look at wedding services to find services to insure your wedding day.
Someone to offer additional facilities
Longer festival style weddings are becoming more popular, although they are still a niche market. However, we are seeing more couples opting for country style venues or properties that are within the family. Particularly if you’re hosting someone on your own property with a large number of guests it’s important to make sure that all of the amenities and facilities are not only up-to-date, but accessible to everyone.
Hiring additional chairs and tables might already be on your radar, but you can also hire facilities such as portaloos for your big day! After all, no one wants to spend half your wedding lining up for the bathroom. Find out where to find additional facilities in wedding hire or wedding services.
