How to Add Personal Touches to Your Wedding Theme
How to Add Personal Touches to Your Wedding Theme
Your wedding day should be a reflection of you and your partner—your love story, your passions, and the life you’re building together. It’s the personal touches we’ve seen over the past 20 years in our Denver wedding venue that transform celebrations into unforgettable experiences that feel authentically “you.” Here are some personal touches we’ve seen at our weddings or online that can infuse your personality into your wedding theme.
Start With Your Love Story
The most meaningful wedding themes often emerge from the couple’s shared journey. Consider:
- Incorporating elements from your first date—perhaps the restaurant’s signature cocktail or music that was playing
- Highlighting places meaningful to your relationship through table names or photo displays
- Or a map guest book poster like our couple Ebonie & Lenny had custom made for them. They have big time travel goals, so this went perfect with their travel theme wedding.
Neon Wedding Sign Ideas
Neon signs have become increasingly popular as couples look for distinctive touches that make their wedding feel more personal and Instagram-worthy. Here are just a few photos from our wedding couples at our all-inclusive Denver wedding venue. Neon signs can add a special touch to weddings, as they create a personalized focal point, displaying the couple’s names, wedding date, or meaningful quotes that reflect their relationship. Custom neon signs can become a keepsake for your home after the wedding, serving as a lasting memento of your special day.

Guest favorites over the years have always been some sort of yummy dessert or treat that they can enjoy while they wait for the couple to finish photos. These life saver mints were a really cute idea.

Reimagine Family Traditions
Honor your heritage while making it your own:
- Update a traditional family recipe for your menu
- Wear jewelry or accessories passed down through generations
- Blend cultural ceremonies in ways that feel authentic to you both
Personalize Your Ceremony
The ceremony offers intimate opportunities for personalization:
- Write vows that speak to your unique relationship
- Include readings from non-traditional sources meaningful to you
- Incorporate symbolic rituals that represent your values or beliefs
Create Thoughtful Guest Experiences
Help guests feel connected to your story by offering welcome bags with locally sourced items or products that tell your story. We also love the “Anniversary Dance”, as it honors all of the married couples at your wedding, and highlights and celebrates the longest married couple.

The Power of Personalized Design
Extend your personal touch to visual elements:
- Develop a custom monogram or illustration that represents your relationship
- Choose colors with personal significance rather than trending palettes
Remember that authenticity is key—incorporate elements that genuinely resonate with you both rather than adding personal touches simply because they’re expected. Your wedding is a celebration of your unique love story, and thoughtfully chosen details will create an experience that feels wonderfully, unmistakably yours.
