Now that you have determined the budget, prioritized your plans and have an idea of what you are looking for in a wedding, you will need to determine the "theme," or "story" that you want to share with your guests.
Why do you need a "theme?" Having a consistency throughout your wedding day will let your guests know what to expect. It immediately relaxes the mind and relaxed guests are happy guests. Happy guests stay longer and are more thankful for your attention to their needs; in short a great event.
How do you arrive at the theme? Decide what is near and dear to your heart:
where you met, where you became engaged, a special song or saying? How about a particular color or food or object? One bride loved shoes so that became her theme. We had invitations printed in the shape of a high-heeled shoe, shoe favors, songs with shoes, and even a shoe cake. Guests found it fun and the entire evening was filled with a light-hearted party atmosphere. It was a perfect wedding!
Find the things that are important to you as a couple and share your story with your guests. They will love you for it, because it allows them to share a piece of your life together.
