I know that we are all in the midst of still planninig and getting ideas for our weddings....
i thought we would all share any Unique, different or cultural things that we wanted at our weddings....
what makes YOUR wedding stand out? what are YOU doing different?
this can range from STDs to RDs and even Bachlorette parties! if you dont have anything different....you can always post things you have seen in prior brides or even online...I know we all could use some differnt ideas!

Since FH and both met at college, we're getting married at the church on our college's campus.
We're also having bagpipers outside of Church and Irish Step Dancers at the reception.

We are doing a donation as the favor. FH father died of Parkinsons. I started a foundation for FH which supports Parkinsons research.
The Nader Rock-n-Rollover Parkinsons Foundation, Inc.
Some background on the name: Well Nader is his last name and Parkinsons for the purpose. The rock n roll stuff comes from his father's career. FH's father was a producer of Doo Woop concerts. FH basically grew up backstage of Madison Square Garden which is kind of cool.
Wow Mara, I misread this when I first saw it. You started your own foundation for it? Thats amazing, how else is it supported besides the donations you guys are doing.

I'm dead set on doing a photobooth... I know it seems really popular on this board but it'll be all new for my friends and all the OOT'ers... also the OOT'ers are not used to a reception hall like here, I really think they'll be blown away.
We're doing a wine theme so I'm trying to figure out what else we can do to tie it in, I'm looking for a big use wine cask or barrel and thats what I want the cake to be set on rather then the normal table.
Since we're doing a day wedding I don't want to do a rehersal dinner, I want to do like a rehersal lunch and do a mini-wine tour with the families since it'll eb the first time everyone meets.
The day after the wedding will be my 27th birthday and mothers day, so I want to bring my family, and his family out to a day after brunch so they can all celebrate since I will be the only non-mother woman there, haha.
OMG exactly this with no birthday! (Although my FH's gram will turn 95 two days after our wedding) Can't wait to see what you do with the theme!
