WEDDING PLANNING
HOW TO ADD SCENT TO YOUR WEDDING
Wedding scents have traditionally focused on the bride and groom’s fragrance, but you can extend the aromatic experience and create a lasting memory for everyone by adding a scent to your wedding.
Scents have a powerful link to memory, so choosing a fragrance carefully will evoke the special moments of your special day. Setting the right scent with a personal approach will create a unique experience tailored to your wedding theme, style and overall ambience to ensure your wedding is truly unforgettable.
We have teamed up with the scent experts at Lords Fragrance House to show you how to add scent to your wedding.
How to add scent to your wedding...
The location, venue and even season can play crucial roles in determining the scent to enhance your wedding day perfectly.
Couples should look at how they can encapsulate the essence of each space with their choice of fragrance, so it resonates emotionally and evokes the special significance of that chosen place. This will ensure they capture long-lasting memories of the happy feelings associated with their wedding.
Creating scent touch points with carefully curated fragrances in the form of candles, diffusers, essential oils and even scent sachets will enrich the whole experience of your wedding for you and your guests.
These will connect you to specific moods and emotions and much like visual elements, such as floral arrangements, colour scheme and table settings, scent adds to the overall atmosphere.
Candles are lit when guests arrive to create a welcoming ambience, they add romance and an intimate glow throughout the whole venue, filling the air with their gentle aromas.
Table scaping with subtly scented tapered candles adds a beautiful touch to the wedding meal and a few drops of essential oil on each napkin will provide wafts of scent to compliment the food.
Diffusers are a great way to fragrance the day if burning candles is not an option. Placing hand washes in your chosen scent around the wash basins in the toilets will boost the aroma where it’s needed! For a finishing touch, spritz with room spray.
But fragrance doesn’t have to only be a part of the actual wedding day. Extending the sensorial experience across other shared moments and right through to the honeymoon will ensure the whole occasion is lasting and memorable.
Every time you catch a waft of that scent in the future, you’ll be immediately transported back to your special day.
So if you’ve ever dreamed of creating your own wedding scent, LORDS Fragrance House can help bring it to life!
