With so much wedding preparation to do, it’s important to keep track of miscellaneous items you’ll need for the ceremony itself—especially those you may not necessarily think of right off the bat. Whether you’re participating in a religious tradition, like a unity candle, or imagining a ceremony exit through lots of confetti, it’s the little extras that make your “I dos” unique.
