Not Following The Routine

Show yourself different by having a wedding plan that makes you stand out from the crowd. But it is important to avoid some of the South Indian wedding cliches that have been repeated again and again. Right from printing your wedding card or designing your e-invite, you have shown yourself creative. You may not like to follow the same monotonous, boring ideas in your wedding plan. But your parents may think it to be safe to follow a regular/routine idea to save time and money. New ideas are always experimental, and you may not be able to tell if they will be successful until you know they are feasible to happen.

Showing Difference in Everything

Following your heart in planning your wedding involves the participation of others also. You may have to convince your loved ones that what you are planning will not make them feel embarrassed before guests at the wedding venue if something goes wrong. From printing your wedding invitation that is set using fonts that catches the attention of the guest, you have taken much care to share that important happening in your life.

At the wedding venue, you must feel great about moving around with your comfortable bridal shoes. Avoid wearing heels, for there is no need to worry that you failed to show that you are trendy or fashionable on that special occasion. Hiring a professional photographer who rarely smiles at the wedding venue is also one of the outdated South Indian wedding cliches. Instead of hiring a professional photographer to shoot photos at the wedding, allow some of your friends who are amateur photographers to shoot photos or videos. Your friends will not disappoint you for they resemble you and have similar tastes and likings and will be able to produce something different from the routine shots. Think about a venue that is different from the routine place to have your wedding reception. A different place with a different set up will bring in unique moments and fun with your loved ones.

Bringing In New Trends

Your parents may frown at you when you tell them about your wedding plan. Instead of inviting a DJ to run your music choices, give an opportunity to someone who can bring fun and more laughter at your wedding reception. Keeping religious rituals short may not sound right. To save time and keep your guests entertained you wedding plan must make everyone happy, and feel different from usual South Indian wedding cliches.
