In today’s connected world, celebrating your wedding with loved ones around the globe—even if they can’t attend in person—is easier and more magical than ever. With innovative technology, thoughtful planning, and a little creativity, you can ensure everyone special in your life feels part of your day. At Rixey Manor, we specialize in helping couples create bespoke celebrations, and this includes making your wedding a worldwide event.


Here’s how to craft a truly global celebration filled with meaningful touches and unforgettable moments.


1. A Taste of the Celebration: Delivered Meals

Share the flavors of your wedding day by sending meals to loved ones who can’t attend in person. Collaborate with caterers in their area or use luxury meal delivery services to deliver dishes inspired by your reception menu. Add thoughtful extras like printed menus, wine pairings, or sweet treats that match your wedding theme. This ensures they experience the culinary magic of your day, even from afar.


2. The Wedding Experience, Virtually Everywhere

Bring your wedding to life for remote guests with live streaming or immersive virtual reality setups. Provide VR headsets so they can feel like they’re right there with you, from witnessing your vows to exploring the venue virtually. For an even more personal experience, include a dedicated virtual host who can guide remote attendees through the day’s highlights.


3. Opera Singers at the Door

For a truly show-stopping gesture, arrange for live performers—such as opera singers, string quartets, or even jazz bands—to visit your remote guests during key moments of your wedding day. These surprise performances can align with your first dance, the ceremony, or a special toast, creating a deeply emotional connection between your in-person and remote celebrations.


4. Virtual Reality Photo Experiences

Incorporate remote guests into your wedding photos using augmented reality and advanced photo editing. From posing alongside you at the altar to dancing at the reception, these lifelike images make distant loved ones feel like they were truly part of your day. These custom photos can be sent as keepsakes or included in a digital wedding album.


5. Wedding Favors That Cross Borders

Sending wedding favors to remote guests is a thoughtful way to share your celebration with them. From personalized mementos to themed gift boxes featuring items like candles, chocolates, or custom keepsakes, these favors can be tailored to your wedding’s aesthetic. Include a QR code linking to a highlight reel or a personalized video message to add an extra layer of connection.


6. Storytelling Through Video and Live Interaction

Hire a videography team to create real-time and recorded highlights of your wedding day, with special moments designed for remote attendees. Allow them to join in live at key points, such as the toasts or speeches, via video calls. These interactions make remote guests feel present and create lasting memories for everyone involved.


7. Coordinated Global Toasts

Plan a synchronized toast to bridge the distance between you and your remote guests. Deliver miniature champagne bottles or their favorite beverages ahead of time, and schedule a specific moment in your reception for everyone to raise their glasses together. This collective toast creates a unifying, heartwarming experience that spans borders.


A Wedding Without Borders

Making all of this possible is where Rixey Manor’s bespoke planning services truly shine.
