The key to any successful wedding is the adoption of a theme that runs throughout. From ambitious costumed weddings to colour themes, the choice is yours, but you have to be consistent. The theme is what ties every element of your wedding together and provides continuity. Here is how you can make the theme a central part of your wedding to make sure it gels:
Choosing a Theme That Fits
A theme can be as ambitious as you would like it to be and there really are no limits. Including movie themes like Twilight, weddings of late have witnessed a number of weird and wonderful transformations. Of course, your theme doesn’t have to be wacky, and you can opt for a simple colour and floral theme that will be both cheaper and easier to pull off. Whatever you choose, pick something that suits you and makes you comfortable. After all, it’s your wedding.
Incorporating it in the Dress Code
Your dress code is the most obvious place for you to incorporate your theme. If you’ve selected an Alice in Wonderland theme, for example, a dress that mimics Alice’s really is the only way to go. Likewise, if your theme is a colour, here is the place that it will be best suited. If you want to stay in white, make sure that your husband to be wears a tailored shirt from somewhere like New and Lingwood. This way, you can make the shirt bespoke so that it matches the theme perfectly. With your husband to be at the centre of the theme, you can also add touches to the bridesmaid dresses to accentuate it.
Adding the Final Touches
Once you’ve established the theme, you simply have to make sure that it runs through the entirety of the day. Everything from floral arrangements to place cards can be used to highlight your theme. All of these little touches may seem insignificant when you’re planning, but on the actual day they can make a huge difference to your wedding and, when you look back at your pictures, you’ll see exactly why you took the time and effort to do it.
To conclude, a good theme is central to a good wedding, so plan yours in detail and incorporate it wherever possible. From a simple colour to a full blown film remake, there’s an option for everyone to make a day you’ll truly remember forever.
