Would you like to do traditions but with a twist?

Have you always wanted to keep to the traditional values of wedding but add your own twist?  We at weddingxtras.co.uk would like to give you a few suggestions to help you make your wedding day unique but keep within traditions.

TRADITION: HEN NIGHT WITH L PLATES
TWIST: Every thought about recording an album with your girlies? Search on google and have a look for recording studios near you. 
TWIST: Would you like an artistic twist to your hen do and the possibility of seeing a naked man?  Why not try a life drawing class?
TWIST: Are you a tomboy? Like getting dirty?? Why not put yourself and your girlies through a muddy assault course?

TRADITION: CREAM INVITATIONS WITH CALLIGRAPHY WRITING
TWIST: Why not try an oriental twist to your invites and use Japanese style paper and matching envelopes.
TWIST: On a budget? Save money by sending your invites by YouTube videos or e-cards?
TWIST: why not get artistic and send homemade pochettes filled with individually crafted invites.

TRADITION: FORMAL THREE COURSE SIVER SERVICE WEDDING BREAKFAST
TWIST: Fancy going all American? Forget seating plans do cocktail hours followed by canapés.
TWIST: Family style service; big bowls of your favourite dishes placed on tables and help yourself.
TWIST: Go for two courses and do a buffet of your favourite desserts, this could include a candy store and ice cream parlour.

TRADITION: TIERED FRUIT CAKE COVERED IN ICING
TWIST: Fancy going back to the 1940s trend; round and hexagon shaped cakes?
TWIST: Having a novelty cake – ie. Tennis court, designer handbag, etc
TWIST: Adventurous? Why not try a chocolate fudge cake with a rose petal jelly centre. Or a Victoria sponge with strawberry champagne jam?
