We turn to Howards Events for advice on making your wedding appeal to all ages

We ask Yorkshire venue stylists Howards Events your busning question...

Q From children and Insta-obsessed teenagers to more traditional older relatives, how do we make sure our wedding appeals to all our loved ones?

To get everyone’s attention, try something a bit different. Traditional but with a twist will stand out from other weddings. An alternative Insta-worthy backdrop would be amazing for your guests to take photos in front of. Make your table decor interesting and exciting by thinking outside the box. Why not try bold colours like in this photo? We teamed bright shades, light-up letters, beautiful table decor and personalised stationery in a rustic setting to really give the wow factor.

Give a personal touch to elements of your day by working with your suppliers to find things that reflect you and your partner. The work you put into the finer details will create something unique to you, which will leave a lasting impression of your magical day for your guests.
