Mystical Celestial Theme Weddings
Couples looking for an interesting way to decorate their wedding
ceremony and reception should consider a beautiful celestial theme
wedding. From stargazers to astronomy fanatics, everyone is sure to
enjoy the theme. A celestial theme wedding sets a romantic mood and
promises to fulfill any wedding wish.
Imagine getting married underneath a bed of stars. Celestial theme
weddings can take place in several locations. Daring couples can
choose to have an outdoor night wedding, getting married under the
moon. Other couples can choose to rent a Planetarium. Most couples
however, can simply decorate any wedding location to fit their
celestial theme. Using inspiration from the Moon, the Sun, and
stars, the couple can create a mystical theme in any location.
Brides can choose to use a variety of things to decorate a celestial
theme wedding. Most decorations should be in the colors of silver or
navy, with a splash of gold or yellow mixed in. Brides can create a
celestial sky by covering the ceilings with drapery in the color of
navy. After draping the ceiling, white twinkling lights can be hung
on the fabric to create a starry night scene.
In addition to the drapery and lighting, brides can choose to use
crystals or cut outs of sparkling stars and moons to hang from the
ceiling. It is best for the lighting to be low during the ceremony
so the guests can enjoy the scenery. The ceiling decorations of a
celestial theme wedding are very important because they highlight
the focus of the theme.
A unique way to add creative flair to pew bows for this theme is to
tuck a small toy telescope in behind each bow. Pew bows are sure to
get more attention when you add this theme-oriented item. Flower
arrangements can also be spiced up with small star ornaments.
Instead of flower cones being attached to pews, brides should use
“stardust packs”. These can be made using sheer silver fabric and
star shaped confetti. To make these, simply cut small squares of
fabric and place confetti in the middle of each one. Bring the edges
of the material up and together and tie the fabric with a ribbon to
make a pouch shaped bag full of the confetti. Guests can throw this
at the couple as they are exiting the ceremony.
Star shaped confetti is also great to add to the wedding
invitations. Sprinkle some in each invitation envelope for added
decor. Don’t forget to also sprinkle some on each reception table.
This versatile decoration is also very budget friendly, so stock up
on quite a bit.
A fun way to tie in the celestial theme to your reception is to use
star shaped place cards. Each table can also be decorated with a
celestial sky map. These are great fun to study, as they outline
constellations. Guests will love their entertainment value. Serving
foods in the shapes of stars, moons, or planets is also a fun idea
for the reception. Anything that cannot be served in these shapes
should be served on plates of these shapes.
A great idea for wedding favors is the star naming certificate.
There is a company where you can actually pay to get a star named
after someone. Gift certificates are available so guests could take
them home and name the star after whomever they wish. After all, who
wouldn’t want a star named after them?
As you can see, a celestial theme wedding is a fun and magical
event. Using elaborate ceiling decor, brides can create a star
filled wedding in any location. Guests will love feeling as if they
are sitting under the stars during the ceremony. With the addition
of fun shaped food and interesting favors, the reception is sure to
be a hit as well. So, for all the romantics at heart, start planning
your beautiful celestial theme wedding today.
