An unusual wedding greeting - interesting for guests and newlyweds!
Good afternoon dear friends!
Few people prepare unusual congratulations for a wedding, agree! Therefore, I propose to continue the wedding theme. We have already discussed gifts for a bachelorette party, we can move on to choosing gifts for the main holiday of the newlyweds.
Do you think that if you are invited to a wedding celebration, do you need to prepare for it in advance? I think it’s a must! Now I’m not talking about gifts for the newlyweds, but about how you will present your prepared gifts to them.
After all, a new married couple who has decided to combine their lives into one certainly deserves to receive unusual congratulations on their wedding?
Why am I talking about non-standard congratulations?
It's just that, in my opinion, most wedding events have one recurring theme.
When the time comes to present gifts to the newlyweds, the invited guests begin to congratulate the newlyweds one by one, reading standard poems from postcards, stuttering and stammering. And the rest of the guests at this time are talking to each other, not listening to the words of the next speech. And sometimes young people can hardly understand the confused congratulations of friends and relatives.
And only when a guest who has prepared for the event begins to congratulate the bride and groom, reads by heart or shows a pre-prepared and rehearsed congratulation, the whole wedding freezes and begins to watch what is happening with interest. And, of course, such an action stands out from the crowd and is remembered by the bride and groom.
Have you encountered a similar fact? I personally have done it many times.
Therefore, our task is to prepare an unusual wedding greeting in order to surprise the newlyweds and create a bright moment in the congratulatory part of the wedding event.
Preparing congratulations
If you want to write a really good congratulations message for the newlyweds, then you should follow certain instructions. When choosing material for a touching wedding congratulations, you can look at several examples and study them well. The next step is a little more complicated, since it is undesirable to even partially copy the examples. They are a kind of indicator of what you should not do.
Congratulations from the mother of the groom
Congratulations in prose should not just be rich in allegories and beautiful words. They should really show your joy for the newlyweds. To add some variety to your congratulations, you can include memories, wishes, joy and other emotions you experience. This is not easy to achieve, but it is possible. By combining everything together, you will create a unique verbal cocktail that will show your joy and originality. The newlyweds will also be interested in listening to something new, rather than outdated words of congratulations.
Unusual wedding greetings: creativity and imagination
Of course, I won’t be able to present you with all the options; I will list only the simplest ones that are available to everyone and do not require any monetary investment:
- Compose congratulations, all the words of which will begin with one letter of the alphabet (which one is up to you, but perhaps you shouldn’t start with “x” :-)). Naturally, the longer the congratulation is, the more interesting it will sound. Next, ask your guests to come up with wishes for the newlyweds using the same letter. Thus, you will not only attract attention to your congratulations, but also enliven the gift-giving procedure.
- Make a congratulations in the form of an interview - come up with cool questions for the bride and groom. The need to answer you will invigorate the newlyweds and add an interesting note to the celebration.
- If you are together, you can make a congratulations in the form of a TV show. Make frames out of cardboard - “TV screens” and read out your congratulations (it should be appropriate), as announcers read the news on television. It could get quite interesting.
- If you are invited to a wedding by a group of several friends, you can make a small performance - remake one of the famous children's fairy tales as a “love story” of the newlyweds and depict it “in person” in the form of a skit.
When your original congratulations for the newlyweds are voiced, you can present them with your main gift with peace of mind.
By the way, if you are going to give money, then you should also do this in a non-standard way. Read how to prepare an original gift of money with your own hands in this article, and here see how you can give your money gift in an original way. May your gift be the most unexpected and memorable!
Well, if you are going to a wedding with a large group of friends, then I advise you to prepare a cool surprise for the newlyweds! Read about it here.
I think I’ve given you some direction for your thoughts, and you yourself can be smart and come up with something interesting for the bride and groom.

So, I suggest, dear friends, to approach the preparation of your gifts responsibly and prepare unusual wedding congratulations for the newlyweds. It will be pleasant for both them and yourself. Trust me :-)!

Congratulatory scene
Thanks to this option for congratulations, such as a sketch , you can not only please the heroes of the occasion, but also defuse the entire situation. Usually, during congratulations, there are situations when many guests are distracted by something, go out somewhere to do their own business, or make a call, and so on. And this method makes it possible to attract everyone with your performance.
- ATM
To pull off this event, you need to find a box from under the refrigerator. Color it to match a real ATM. A man with a microphone sits inside. You can come up with riddles to guess the PIN code.
- Humorous performance
Here you can take out a closet or something similar. Improvise a domestic quarrel between husband and wife. The final stage is reconciliation in the form of kisses and hugs.

The main feature is the selection of costumes, as well as the artistry of each of the participants in the congratulations. You can choose the story of Shrek and Fiona, Rapunzel and so on. You can proceed from the preferences and interests of the newlyweds.
