There are a number of different elements considered ‘fairytale’ that can be incorporated into \u00a0your seemingly ‘normal’ wedding. This doesn’t necessarily mean your entire wedding is fairytale themed, but skews that way slightly, depending on how many of these fairytale elements you include.<\/p>\n

Incorporate the following elements into your wedding for that extra magical edge fairytale weddings often possess.<\/p>\n

The dress<\/h2>\n

The dress is probably the most obvious element of the quintessential fairytale wedding. What’s a fairytale wedding without a princess dress<\/a>? Cinderella wore one when she met her Prince Charming – so why can’t you wear one when you marry yours?<\/p>\n

The horse and carriage<\/h2>\n

Princesses (that’s what you are) deserve to arrive to the ball (your wedding) in style! This means a two-horse drawn carriage <\/a>for extra magic. Just remember – you must return before midnight or the carriage and its horses will return to their\u00a0original form: a pumpkin and a pair of mice!<\/p>\n

Horses (in general)<\/h2>\n

Literally any inclusion of an animal other than the usual domestic pet, can turn a ‘normal wedding’ into a glittering ball of fairytale goodness.<\/p>\n

The loyal\u00a0followers<\/h2>\n

I don’t know what it is, but fairytale weddings always seem to have a large amount of bridesmaids<\/a>. Some may assume\u00a0this is because the bride\u00a0needs<\/em> that many attendants to make sure she’s always looking on point – but we just think it’s because it looks good, and she has a lot of followers – ahem… friends.<\/p>\n

The castle<\/h2>\n

I’m not entirely sure it’s possible to simply acquire a castle, but quintessential fairytale weddings always include one. If you can’t quite get your hands on a castle, a great venue<\/a> will do – I suppose.<\/p>\n

The dove release<\/h2>\n

What’s more ‘extra’ than a dove release? Show you’re really something special by granting freedom (temporary freedom – doves usually fly back to where they were hired from) to a white bird!<\/p>\n

All jokes aside, dove releases<\/a> are a tradition that symbolises true love. What’s not to love about that?<\/p>\n

The tiara or crown<\/h2>\n

This is probably the most important element of a fairytale wedding. Something bedazzled\u00a0must\u00a0<\/em>be placed in your hair, whether it’s a tiara, a crown<\/a>, or simply a cathedral-length veil that trails for metres behind you.<\/p>\n
