Wedding Theme
Ideas
Selecting a wedding theme is a very personal
decision for a couple. A wedding theme is typically a
reflection of something about the couple and can be over the
top or just simple, creative details. Whether a couple would
like to have a unique theme or a traditional feel, there are
many different options for wedding themes that can fit the
personality of any couple.
Beach
Themes
Beach
themes are some of the most traditional themes but it is not
all about beach balls and sand. Classy ocean blues and greens
for your colors, along with white candles sitting in hurricane
glass with sand and tiny shells and attire that matches this
relaxed theme is often a favorite. Using unique décor
appropriate to your venue is important. If your wedding is in a
traditional church, your beach theme is best carried out in
your reception. If you have selected a seaside outdoor venue,
then sandals, simple, breezy bridesmaids dresses and tropical
flowers wrapped with tulle ribbons is a great place to start
your theme.
Alma
Mater
Many
couples who meet in college often wish to have their alma mater
play a strong part in their wedding day. Doing this tactfully
when your mascot is a possum and your colors may be brown and
gold can be tough, but there are lots of options for adding a
little piece of your history as a couple in to your special
day. Consider not destroying the color pallet you’ve had in
mind since day one of wedding planning by using alma mater
colors at a minimum, such as an insignia of the schools name
written in white on your cake or using the school song as your
entry song to your reception.
Environmentally
Friendly
Going
green is a trend growing in popularity. It is incredibly
versatile and customizable to any bride and groom. From
selecting environmentally friendly bird seed to throw on the
happy couple as they exit the church to only using locally
grown flowers and food, the options for going green can make a
statement or be an underlying intent by the couple. An
additional benefit to going green is that at times there can be
a cost benefit to the products you select by choosing
environmentally conscious, local
resources.
Color
Themes
Using
a favorite color sprinkled on each and everything including
drinks, napkins, dessert and tableware, can be a unique way to
express something that is a signature to you. If you’re known
to friends and family as being the queen of pink, it might not
be your husband-to-be’s favorite way to celebrate his wedding
day so be conscious of this. If you are set on tinting the
frosting of your cake pink, then a chocolate frosted grooms
cake may be a great compromise.
Selecting a wedding theme idea should be one
of the more exciting parts of your wedding planning process
that should definitely involve both the bride and the groom.
Much of the remaining planning hinges from this single
decision. Whether you are planning to go traditional with your
wedding theme or you wish to show off your personality, there
are many creative wedding theme ideas to choose
from.
