Themed Weddings?

While it is useful to get ideas from themes which have been used before, it is important that the bride and groom have a wedding which is true to their taste and vision.  The theme that is selected should have some personal relevance and meaning to them as a couple.  Themes provide a sense of continuity for all the wedding elements - from the gowns to the flowers to the decor and the menu.

Decisions are much easier once the theme has been established.  Whether it is a color or a location or a time period or event, there is the focus to ensure that this  life changing celebration is memorable for participants and guests alike.

Here are some examples:-

·        History lovers can choose a “Roaring Twenties” theme.  Art Deco can be the design focus.  Jazz was king at the time and short gowns were worn.  Bling was everywhere. Most of the candy popular today, hit the markets in the 1920’s.   This can be a perfect reason to set up a sweets table for the likes of Milk Duds and Baby Ruth bars.

·        World travelers – or dreamers – will find a wonderful theme in exotic locations.  Tropical isles, far Eastern spots or The Scottish highlands all provide a structure for food, décor, dress and paper products.

·        Bright colors against neutral backgrounds can be very effective.  Instead of carrying out a color theme in the bridesmaid dresses, have the maids in a basic shade like platinum and carry out the color theme in the flowers and reception décor.

·        The ceremony and/or reception location can provide the theme for a wedding.  If a museum is chosen as the venue, art and sculpture become the theme.  If a garden or beach or ranch is chosen as the site, the theme becomes clear.

·        Medieval accents combined with fairy tale touches work well in historic buildings or even modern renovations which retain the original stone walls and structures.
