How To Plan A Theme Wedding

Creating a theme wedding is one of the hottest trends around right now. Incorporating a design or monogram throughout your wedding day can add special flair and personality to an event. A theme is such a unique way for the bride and groom to express their creative sides to everyone attending their wedding. The most important thing is that you choose something that meaningful to you and your fiance'.

Choosing A Theme

Thinking about the exact feel for your wedding day can be a great place to start when deciding on a theme. What feeling do you want your guests to experience? Is your event formal or informal? What interests you? These are some of the questions you can ask yourself when trying to determine your theme.

A monogram, which usually intertwines the bride and grooms initials, can be fun and easily incorporated to the wedding. Monograms are adaptable to everything because depending on which font you use, it can give the feel you are going for, from formal to casual.

If a monogram may not be what you are looking for, think about your hobbies, interests, favorite cities, sports teams or symbols. A vine of grapes can be a beautiful accent to certain wedding items. For a French flair, a fleur-de-lis can be used for a symbolic theme. Love the RedSox? Then use that as the accent of your day. You can also look on the internet to get ideas from other brides.

Using Your Theme

The thing that truely sets the tone of the wedding usually begins with the wedding invitation. This is where you can begin using your theme. A watermark of your design can be used as a background for your inviation or you can have the theme running along the top or side of your invite. Get creative because this is a great place to start.

Other areas to use your theme are the ceremony and reception. From the aisle runner, to the unity candle, to your bouquet, this can be added in a suble way. At the reception, the cake table, bridesmaids attire, and decorations are other ideas to utilize the theme you have chosen.

You can also incorporate more than one theme. A monogram can be used in conjunction with a design or symbol. This leaves room for diversity and not tying yourself down to just one thing.

Have fun when choosing and using your theme. It's the one and only day where you truly get to show off your creativity.
