Planning a wedding isn’t just about creating a magical day for you and your partner – it’s also about ensuring your guests feel appreciated and cared for. A welcoming atmosphere sets the tone for an unforgettable celebration and shows your loved ones how much their presence means to you. If you’re planning a wedding in Marbella or the Costa del Sol, here are 10 thoughtful ways to make your guests feel special, with insights on how Fiestasol’s wedding planning, catering, and styling services can help you every step of the way.
- Personalised Welcome Bags or Gift Boxes
Welcome bags are a fantastic way to greet your guests, especially for destination weddings in Marbella. Include thoughtful items like bottled water, suncream, snacks, and a personalised note. To add a Spanish twist, consider treats like local olive oil or traditional sweets. At Fiestasol, we can help design and coordinate these bags to match your wedding theme and add a personal touch that your guests will love.
- Handwritten Notes for a Personal Touch
There’s something timeless and heartfelt about a handwritten note. Placing a short message at each guest’s seat or including it in their welcome bag is a simple yet powerful way to make them feel appreciated.
- Comfort Stations for Every Season
Marbella’s dreamy weather is fantastic for weddings, but it’s important to keep your guests comfortable. Provide flip-flops for dancing, fans for hot summer days, or blankets for cooler evenings. Fiestasol’s styling team can create thoughtful comfort stations that offer a little respite for your guests, whatever the weather.
- A Clear Itinerary for a Stress-Free Day
Lots of people who opt for destination weddings often choose to host multiple events, so providing a clear itinerary ensures your guests know what to expect. Whether it’s a printed program or an online wedding website, a detailed schedule helps everything run smoothly. With Fiestasol’s planning expertise, we’ll ensure every part of your day is perfectly organised so your guests can relax and enjoy.
- Signature Drinks with a Personal Story
Signature cocktails are a fun way to add a personal touch to your wedding. Choose a drink that reflects you and your partner’s personality, or the story of your relationship. Fiestasol’s catering team are the experts at serving and creating bespoke cocktails, ensuring your guests enjoy a delicious drink with a memorable backstory.
- Interactive Guest Experiences
Keep your guests entertained with interactive elements like a photo booth, lawn games, or even a live artist capturing the event. These activities not only add fun but also create unique keepsakes for you and your guests.
- Thoughtful Wedding Favors
Give your guests a meaningful memento to take home. From mini potted plants to personalised candles or jars of local honey, there are endless options for wedding favours that feel both practical and sentimental. Fiestasol can source and style favours that align with your theme, leaving a lasting impression on your guests.
- Late-Night Snacks to Keep the Party Going
After a night of dancing, nothing delights guests more than a surprise snack. Popular choices for our weddings include mini burgers, churros with chocolate, or a Mediterranean-inspired antipasti station. We’ll provide lots of delicious late-night treats that your guests will rave about.
- Custom Signage with a Warm Welcome
Personalised signs not only help guide your guests around your venue, but they also add a touch of charm and personality to your wedding decor. Whether it’s a heartfelt ‘Welcome to Our Wedding’ sign or fun directions to the bar, Fiestasol’s styling team can create custom signage that complements your venue and theme.
- Make the Most of Marbella’s Sunsets
