Wedding Theme

This is the fun part of your special day, the wedding theme.

You need to get this in place very early on in your wedding plan.

What theme?

There is so much to choose from. Maybe you have had a dream wedding in your mind for so long, then this is easy, follow that but if you haven’t and want something other than the traditional then you can start with the time of the year, be it spring, summer, autumn or winter.

Spring could be pretty, pastel, floaty, spring flowers, very soft delicate.

Summer is hot and vibrant, maybe the beach style wedding, need not be on the beach, the decorations in the beach theme with tropical flowers and those wonderful summer colors.

Autumn is the wonderful autumn tones, golds, rusts, greens, warm browns, leafy and warm.

Winter, go all out with the snow scene, doesn’t matter if it doesn’t snow near you, the effects could be draping white fabrics, crystals, lots of silver, whites, clear pale blues.

Then there are other themes like country/cottage, renaissance, mediaeval, your favorite movie/musical, your favorite flower, Hawaiian, German, Chinese, Indian, Irish, Scottish. This list is almost endless.

The most important thing with theming your wedding is, it is what you and your fiancé want.

Once you have this theme in place you can start organizing the wedding ceremony because without the ceremony there won’t be a reception or anything else related to a wedding for that matter just a big party.

Where you have the wedding ceremony will be decorated with your chosen theme and then the theme is carried through to everything else.

The wedding theme will determine so much, your color scheme, your outfit styles, where you have your photos taken, your cake, cars, flowers etc.

It all has to fit into your wedding theme so once again the wedding plan comes into play, that all important wedding plan.
