Whilst im in the blogging spirit and 2012 wedding season is just around the corner I thought i'd write another blog about themes for weddings. there are just SO many to chose from I couldn't possibly leave it at 4. Plus i'm a bit giddy being a bride to be myself (i'm getting married in July but im keeping my lips sealed about our theme as I want it to be a big suprise for all my guests. All i will say is that we are going all out - but then i kind of have to because my reputation as a venue dresser is on the line....)
So, here's some more theme's for you Bride to be's to consider.... and please feel free to contact me pinktink1983@hotmail.co.uk or 01744 630759 and i'll supply and set up anything you want. AND i do mean anything!!
Classic English Country theme:
If you’re thinking about pastel shades like lemon, baby
pink, soft blue, lilac, light green & peach for your bridesmaid dresses,
then an English country theme could be the one for you, it’s demure, elegant and
classy.
Decor could include pastel seat sashes, swags and table
runnerss matching your bridesmaid’s dresses, beautiful vintage style birdcages
filled with candles or artificial flowers for your centrepieces, a butterfly
theme running throughout on invitations / place cards / menu / order of
service. Silk petals instead of table
confetti, beautiful organza favour bags matching your colour scheme, tea lights
scattered on tables and of course beautiful balloons in arches and clusters. As for music a harpist would fit perfectly.
Fairytale:
Most women dream of a fairytale princess wedding, so if
you’ve got your heart set on the big ballerina style fairytale dress, the horse
and carriage and the castle cake then you could compliment it with a fairytale
theme in your decor on your big day. You don’t have to go all pink either, because
silver, gold and lilac, lemon, baby blue and mint green can all work well with this
theme too! For centrepieces I would recommend balloon clusters with organza
swags, because they create the dreamy fantasy atmosphere. They’re soft, sweet
and pretty. Place cards could feature
crowns for the men and tiaras for the ladies, rose petals scattered on the
tables, fairytale castle tea lights, favour boxes with tiaras and crowns, then add some butterflies to balloon ribbons
and near the guest book.... you really could go on forever with this theme. I
think white, baby pink and baby blue with a touch of silver look stunning for
this theme, so much so that I had that colour scheme for my own engagement
party.
Classic Ivory:
If you like to keep things elegant, clean and simple, you might opt for classic ivory as your theme. It doesn’t have to be just all boring white, you can incorporate gold, brown, beige, champagne and nude tones to add depth and elegance. Even a touch of black can add that "coco chanel" influence. A classic ivory theme can be just as effective as all out glamour if done correctly. For minimal fuss but maximum impact ivory and gold go perfectly together, so that would be the perfect colour for seat sashes and table runners. An elegant cream candelabra as a centrepiece looks perfect, or how about lanterns or floating candles in bubble bowls? We can supply you with simple, classic balloons, swags and favour boxes that look pretty and elegant.
Winter Wonderland:
This theme is perfect if your wedding is between October and
March. You can create your own beautiful
winter wonderland to rival any fairytale.
The colours I would recommend are Ice blue, silver and white, and opt
for a snowflake theme running through.
For centrepieces I would opt for candles and mirrors, the
nights are dark very early at this time of year and you can create a lovely
warm romantic atmosphere. If you’re not into candles then I would suggest glass
centre pieces filled with crystals to create the ice like look. Your favours
should be seasonal, so instead of sugared almonds how about warming winter nip mints
or miniature whiskies for the gents and gins or brandies for the ladies? As for balloons go for impressive arches,
foils and pearlised colours. Invitations, order of service and place cards can
feature snowflake embellishments, as could your cake. Your table confetti can
be a mixture of gems and snowflakes. How about an ice sculpture to really set the scene?
I'll blog again with more themes, idea's and inspiration soon if you want any help or advice please call me on 01744 630759 or my business partner (and mum) Joan 01744 808482.
