Image When you sit down to start planning the details of your wedding day, it’s only natural, at first, to feel a little overwhelmed by the number of choices you’ll have to make. From the cake, to the seating plan, from the music to the dress itself, everything has to be chosen, sourced, ordered and paid for. One of the things bound to be at the forefront of your mind will be making an effort to go for something a little bit different to give your special day a unique feel. An easy answer to this is to use bird’s feathers, and particularly white feathers, as a motif running throughout every aspect of the day.

Feathers may not be the first thing which you think of when it comes to putting together the look and feel of your wedding. It may be more natural to opt for glitter, confetti and flowers, but the fact that these spring to mind easily is something which, in fact, counts against them. After all, everyone attending your wedding will have gone along to a great many others, and seen the same decorative styles occurring over and over again. Using birds feathers in the UK is a way of doing something which looks at once stylish, classic and tasteful whilst also being innovative and startlingly original.

If you want to imagine the impact which the use of feathers will have, then think of the feather boas which used to be a common sight, but which are now all too rare. They created an air of exoticism and originality, whilst looking excellent with a wide variety of other clothes. The same effect will be achieved if you opt to go for wedding feathers when designing your big day. The key point when using feathers is that they can be adapted and utilised in a wide variety of styles and circumstances. Invitations, order of service and letters of thanks, for example, could be decorated with a tastefully reproduced feather motif, and the fact that this is then taken up in every other part of the days design will give it a unified appearance which is usually the mark of a professional stylist or planner.

Having featured them on the stationery, you can then use them as a decorative motif on the dress itself, or the flowers used as a centre piece on the dining tables. If you want to be truly chic and a little bit edgy, then why not buy a feather for your wedding design?  This may, at first glance, seem a little shocking, but it will add a touch of alternative style a world away from the run of the mill motifs used time and again in weddings the length and breadth of the country. Nobody who attends the wedding will forget the way things looked, and the photographs and videos will capture something genuinely stylish and a little bit playful. If things go to plan, then you’re only going to have the one wedding day, after all, so you may as well go out of the way to ensure that yours is different  from everyone else’s. It’s a celebration of you, after all, of you as a couple and the way you see the world and your relationship, so why not imprint it with your own special something.   Creating a unique look for your wedding needn’t involve employing the services of an expensive designer, or using materials which cost a great deal of money  - if you make the right choices, the simplest and most natural of objects can make all the difference.

Bird’s feathers combine style, class and a touch of the natural world with individuality and an attempt to push the envelope. Finding and choosing feathers in UK has never been easier, and locating ones which are perfect for your special day should be simplicity itself.
