If you’re someone that is wondering “What the heck is a wedding theme?!”
It’s okay, you are not alone! Let me explain below.
A wedding theme is an overall vision of what you want your event to look like.
So, when you picture your wedding you might picture big trees in the middle of the woods, a beach or maybe with a mountain view, all of these are related to your theme.
Whether you are picturing a horse-drawn carriage or a fancy limousine it is all related to the vision you have for your big day.
Below I’m going to give you the top 5 things to consider when you are choosing your wedding theme.
Though none of this is unchangeable, it will help you with your budget and decipher what is truly most important to you.
Venue is number one.
Once you chose your venue or venue style it will help you SO MUCH with your budget.
The venue is going to be one of the most expensive things in your whole budget.
Determining your venue style is a must.
Whether you what to have a summer or winter wedding, choosing this will be extremely helpful when you are trying to come up with your overall vision.
Once you choose your season (Not necessarily your date) it will help you with your colors and floral choices.
(NOTE: It’s important to keep in mind that not all flowers are available all year around. If you have specific flowers, you already know you what, it would be worth you looking into the floral seasons a little more.)
As mentioned above, the colors will depend a lot on the season you choose.
Just like every year has its color theme, every season is the same. I’m sure just by doing your research you’ve already noticed a pattern in colors and styles.
Though it is not unheard of to choose a color that is not in the season, keep in mind that seasonal colors rely greatly on floral availability.
This is what makes your wedding more you.
Whether you put your favorite sports team on the groom’s cake, pictures of your pets on the cocktail napkins or simply have pictures of the two of you on the tables, this is what makes your event you.
When deciding what you want to do, consider things you both love.
Maybe you both like to watch the office or met at a roller rink, these are all important things to think about when coming up with cute/ fun ways to make your event special to you.
At the end of the day, it always comes back to your budget.
We all know that staying within your budget is important, if you have your heart set on something that is not within your budget it’s okay, we’ve all been there.
Consider doing something else DIY style instead of paying for it.
There is always a way.
