What Does Wedding Theme Concept Mean?

First, listen to this playlist to get an idea of great prelude music - while your guests are being seated.  

The full blown concept you choose for your celebration will no doubt influence the rest of your wedding day options. Whole concepts can be as simple as a unique color combination or as complex as a historic theme which includes guests and attendants dressing up in costumes and make-up.

A concept gives you the chance to make your event a night to remember for all of your guests, as well as create something unique to you and your partner as a couple.

Will the event be formal or casual?
This sets the tone for the attire that will be worn by the guests and the bridal party, as well as possible catering and decoration options.

Outdoor or Indoor?
When you choose to have a celebration outdoors, there are many things you need to plan for. Things such as location, shelter in case of bad weather and finding out about permits are all plans that would need to be arranged far before the wedding date.  Indoor events also have unique planning considerations. Time and noise restrictions and in-house catering rules all have to be thought about.

Color Combinations?
Choosing colors that carry on throughout the event is a simple way to create a ‘flow’ for your ceremony and reception. Coordinating decorations, floral arrangements, invitations, and the bridal party’s attire with complimenting colors, is a great and easy way to harmonize your celebration.

Seasonal Celebrations?
Choosing what season you get married also presents you with wedding theme possibilities.

Finding Inspiration for Your Theme

Sometimes deciding on a concept for your wedding can become especially difficult. Maybe the colors you like don’t go over so well with your fiancé’s taste or you just don’t know where to start. The best way to come to an agreement is to choose items that will personalize your event and reflect your tastes as a couple.

Be sure and look at what you have in common. Maybe you both like a certain activity or hobby. Activities you enjoy doing together are great start-off points. For example, if you both like skiing, maybe you can hold your reception at a chalet or lodge. Choose to have the wedding in December or January and use cool colors like blue and silver. From there you can base your wedding day around a theme of ‘Winter Wonderland’.

Once you have a place to start from, choosing the theme for your big day won’t seem as daunting.
