Choosing custom coasters for your wedding is an original idea that'll make you stand out from the crowd.
Customising accessories gives a unique touch to the event. You can choose any item and turn it into a nice idea to decorate the location with.
Coasters are one option. They're always useful and necessary on a well-dressed table. Let's find out how to make them unique and original with a few, but important tricks.
Wooden coasters: why customise them?
Planning a wedding is never easy. You have to think about catering, the location, the photographer, the entertainment, the set-up. Everything needs to be planned carefully and it's essential to pay close attention to detail.
Coasters are too often ignored. Yet, they're useful accessories to protect the tablecloth from stains. Moreover, they can give a touch of style to the mise en place. If personalized, they contribute significantly to the success of the party.
Turning a simple item into an accessory that conveys joy and integrates seamlessly with the other decorations is one of the reasons that pushes a couple to create personalized coasters.
For instance, making heart-shaped coasters will make the refreshment original and the event unforgettable. A marriage different from the others will remain impressed in the memory of the guests more easily.
Personalized coasters aren't just accessories which you can use during the party. Engraving the name of the guests on them will give everyone a unique and peculiar souvenir of your wedding. It'll be a special memory that everyone can keep with them once the celebrations are over.
These are just some of the benefits that custom coasters can bring to your wedding. Below we'll give you tips and advice to make the most of these simple but unique items.
Where to start to customise your coasters
To craft the perfect personalized coasters for your party, you first need to define the wedding style.
Each element must be in line with the others to create a harmonious and welcoming environment. It's then essential to match the accessories with the rest of the decorations. For this reason, you'll have to base your choice of the style of the coasters on the type of celebration you want to get.
For instance, if you prefer classic weddings, it'll be better to focus on tradition than originality. So, classic cups will be the perfect glasses, while the coasters will have to be white or not too bright in colour.
The same goes for the form, which must be simple, without too many extravagant details and, at best, round.
If, on the other hand, the wedding has a particular theme, you should give the coasters a style that recalls that of the event. Only in this way will you be able to turn such a simple item into an original accessory. With it, you’ll make your wedding unique and unforgettable.
In conclusion, all you need to do is to choose a theme for your wedding and stick to this style. In this way, you’ll design an article that's in harmony with the rest of the setting.
Coasters created with care and attention to detail will be a perfect souvenir, too. Guests can take them at their houses and keep an accessory that remembers your party.
The style of custom coasters
Personalized coasters are exceptional wedding accessories. To give their best, however, they shouldn't only be unique, but nice and pleasant to look at, too.
There are several ways to make these little accessories special. One of the most common one is to add the name of the guests. With this move, you'll be able to use coasters as placeholders as well.
In this case it's necessary to think about how to apply the writing. You should aim for a well readable and original result.
You'll mainly have two printing techniques to reproduce the name of your guests on the surface, depending on the models: engraving and digital printing. They both produce excellent details, but the former can't replicate colours and can only be applied to certain materials, such as cork and wood. The coaster will look elegant and rustic at the same time. It'll be ideal for a country-style wedding.
So, the choice of the material is very important as well. It'll affect the final result and the way in which your custom accessory will be received. The same applies to the shape, which can be round or square.
Analysing every aspect of your custom coasters, you'll create an item that'll be easily appreciated and that'll decorate your party in an original way. Besides, being useful objects, your guests can take them home not only as a souvenir of the event, but as an accessory to add to their kitchen, too.
The importance of coherence
In a wedding, every detail makes a difference and contributes to the success of the event. We've already mentioned how important it is to create a harmonious environment with objects that recall the theme or colours of the party. Each item must be made keeping the style of the wedding and that of the other accessories in mind.
Considering articles separately is a very common mistake. This means that, for instance, you focus on the tablecloth and placeholders at a time, on coasters at a second and on the furniture of the room at another.
This attitude creates inconsistencies in the style of the accessories.
On the contrary, analysing them as a group allows you to have a general overview of the style of all the elements you'll include in the wedding. You can choose a colour or a detail and reproduce it on each of them. So, you’ll create consistency between the accessories and decorations of the party.
This applies to all personalised wedding accessories, including coasters.
Regardless of the theme chosen for your wedding, the environment should be harmonious. A style that's too varied would in any case be unpleasant to see. On the contrary, finding a common thread among all the elements of the wedding won't only create a beautiful atmosphere, but will surprise your guests as well. What better way to show your care and give your guests a unique experience to remember?
Just think out the style of the event and how to transmit it to every item, decoration and accessory. In this way, even your personalized coasters will help make your party unforgettable. They'll be a small detail that makes a difference.
