Wedding Themes

What are wedding themes? One might wonder about those when hearing how important they seem in the wedding planning process. Well one thing is sure wedding themes are important because many things depend on the theme. The easiest things that come to mind are decorations and floral arrangements. But in some cases the wedding theme can also narrow down the choices of venues, of clothing of music.

For instance one couple might have a nature wedding theme. That will cut down on options for ceremony and reception venues as they would most likely want to hold both in the outdoors. Decorations and floral arrangements would be adjusted to the theme. The decorations and floral arrangements would be adjusted to the outdoor condition, by being made more sturdy and natural and refreshing colors would be chosen.

On the other hand, an entirely different couple might want to have an elegant wedding and that can be a theme in itself. The wedding reception location would have to be elegant, decorations and music might be chosen accordingly. Suitable color might be the classic elegant red or a combination of red and blue that has a touch of royalty in it. Some couples simply choose color themes and adapt floral arrangements and decorations to the themes. In recent days color can be added even to the wedding dresses. The wedding cake can also be adapted to the color theme of choice.

Other couples may take their wedding theme further than a color, a value or a symbol. Some may choose Vegas weddings because they reject conformity, because they can be spur of the moment or because they like an Elvis copycat to officiate their wedding. Some couples may choose wilder themes such as fairy tale themes, movie themes or time themes. How about a Cinderella wedding or a 1920s gangster wedding?

There are several ways in which people can enjoy their wedding day and several ways of reflecting their personality in what they are planning. No matter of the choice sharing their hobbies or passions with all of their guests may prove annoying to some, but should be appreciated by many. It is not only a way of reflecting themselves, but also a way of sharing their preferences with the loved ones, friends and family.

Some themes are chosen with the sole purpose of having an extravagant wedding or with the purpose of having a wedding that breaks patterns. No matter what the reasons behind a choice we live in times when creativity is appreciated, when people do like to be different and when most things have been already done before. So why not enjoy the unique occasion of being part of a unique wedding party?

One Response to Wedding Themes

From all themes you proposed here I think I might go for the color one. I’m a more traditional type of bride and I’d like to respect all customs possible. But I also like something original, something unique. I guess a colored wedding could comprise both of them. You can be traditional and choose a traditional gown and at the same time add some color to it, figuratively and literally speaking. Now, because for some of my guests color could be shocking, I think I’d choose something natural and subtle. Maybe a very light pink or a very light blue. I can just imagine the table cloths, the balloons and the cake in one of these colors. And of course, the flowers. I think it’s more affordable to go for pink, as I can find pink roses easier than blue ones.
