Well, nothing says it's a fun wedding like a heart-shaped something does.  Nothing like personalising your wedding with a dash of louuuuu, right?  So, if you’re a fan of the good ol’ expression of love, here go 20 excellent ideas in which you can incorporate some hints of gooeyness and mushiness in your wedding. 1. Stylish “Love” bulbs hanging from the ceiling

Its an Affair★ 2.8

Tres chic! This very glamorous lighting style makes for an elegant addition to your décor, without looking, well, cheesy! Switch the white for neons if you plan on having an out-and-out Bolly-wedding. Notice the heart-shape embedded sweetly in all of this. 2. A cute heart board featuring the Wedding Date

Heart-ception? Create cute heart boards featuring your wedding date and other details from the wedding, which could easily be your Save the Date invitation! 3. A heart-shaped entry

Sutra Weddings★ 4.9

Let your guests feel the vibe of a wedding full of “feelz” right from the moment they enter! The red comes alive even more with some classic lighting and the contrasting foliage surrounding it. 4. Initials displayed at the wedding

That, is how you personalise your wedding! We love the artsy showcase of the bride and groom’s initials paired with a heart. Station them at various spots at the wedding décor and feel the love! 5. Sparklers + Fooljhadi Heart

The Love Struck Weddings★ 5

Perfect idea for a pre-wedding shoot or even a reception / cocktail photo op! Light painting is extremely easy to carry out, provided you organise your shoot in the dark. Ask your photographer to help you create some stylish graphics through this bright idea. 6. Heart-shaped candies/ cookies for wedding favours

Whether in the form of sweets or a giveaway, these candies are not going to last very long. This, we’re sure of! Look at how cute they are! We simply wouldn’t be able to resist them if they came in front of us. 7. Paper heart garlands

A super-frugal idea for the budget bride, this one’s an easy way to add some quirk to your wedding décor. Simply grab a few sheets of colourful paper, cut them into the shape of tiny hearts, and string them all together with the help of a sturdy thread. 8. Heart fingerprints on paper bags

How cool is this idea? Grace your giveaway bags with a heart-shaped fingerprint on the front, along with both of your names below it. A minimalistic yet classy idea to incorporate the heart! 9. Heart-shaped food

Easily one of the best ideas we’ve come across - heart-shaped idlis, or anything that's cut into the shape for that matter! The idli batter is beaten with beetroot, cooked in the shape of a heart, and served with coconut chutney. This one’s going to be an absolute hit for your wedding’s starter menu! Try sandwiches or pancakes or even cute cookies! 10. Heart Props at Photo Booth
