Wedding Decorating Ideas Start With Choosing A Theme For Your Wedding
Planning a wedding is exciting, frightening,
nerve-wracking, enervating and one of the most stressful
AND fun things you'll do in your entire life. You may
have been planning the special day since you were a
little girl. You wouldn't be the only little girl who
had definite ideas for her wedding decorations and
setting. It's no accident that Barbie's best selling
outfits were always wedding dresses, after all.
Now that it's finally here, though, you're face to face
with all the options and ideas for wonderful, magical,
whimsical and elegant wedding themes. Should you choose
a Hawaiian theme wedding, decorating with plumeria leis
and tropical colors? A wedding on the beach at sunset
with the bridesmaids all in white and the groom in a
Hawaiian shirt? Texas country wedding,
winter wonderland
wedding, Disney theme wedding - eeny meeny miney mo!
Well, that's one way to decide on a theme for your
wedding. Maybe you're wondering why choose a
wedding
theme at all. Choosing a theme for your wedding is a
great way to help you coordinate your plans, colors and
ideas for wedding decorations. Whether you base your
theme on something as simple as a color combination that
you love (black and white weddings are SO elegant!), or
as elaborate as an all-out, full-scale destination
Orlando Disney themed wedding complete with a Mickey
Mouse breakfast, it's a thousand percent easier to come
up with decorating ideas for your wedding when you've
narrowed the field with a wedding theme.
Theme weddings are a relatively recent phenomenon. As
little as 25 years ago, the major choices a bride had to
make about wedding decorations was 'what colors are good
for a fall wedding?" and "What kind of flowers should I
have in my centerpieces?" Over the last twenty years or
so, though, brides and grooms have increasingly turned
to planning a wedding reception like any other party,
complete with decorations that fit a particular favorite
theme.
Some couples may opt for a particular style of wedding
out of respect for cultural or ethnic traditions. For
many modern couples, their wedding day is the perfect
time to reaffirm the the traditions that link them to
their roots. Asian and African wedding themes have
become very popular for exactly that reason. Other ideas
for wedding themes drawn from ethnic and cultural roots
are Hawaiian wedding themes, Greek wedding themes,
regional Italian weddings like
Tuscan wedding themes and
Native American wedding themes.
A lot of couples choose a wedding theme because it's
meaningful to them, or just because it's fun. Beach
wedding themes that include nautical and out-to-sea ship
weddings, island luaus and elegant harbor side yacht club
weddings are especially popular, and there are dozens of
ideas for beach wedding decorations that you can draw
on. Country buffs might choose to decorate the hall for
their wedding reception with ten-gallon Texas hats and
lucky horseshoes.
You'd love to take your whole wedding to Tahiti but
can't afford the price tag? An island theme wedding lets
you bring Tahiti to the wedding party. Disney theme
weddings and Cinderella weddings are a variation - while
you CAN make the trek to Orlando for a real Disney
wedding, if all you want is the glass slipper and Prince
Charming, there are lots of great decorating ideas for
Disney theme weddings.
Still other couples don't really think of their chosen
decorations as a 'theme' - they just want a nice garden
wedding. Spring wedding themes and
summer wedding themes include
decorated gazebos, garden tents, roses and lilacs and
gladiolus in bloom. You can decorate for a simple
country garden wedding, or a more formal afternoon tea
garden wedding. Night weddings in the garden can sparkle
with fairy lights playing in the branches of trees or
end with a display of fireworks that sends the bride and
groom off on their new life together with a beautiful
bang.
