Wedding Theme...

Original post by FutureMrsSweeney

Is anyone having a theme to their wedding?

How are you tying everything in together? From your invites, favors, decor, etc...

While I am currently working on the big stuff (vendors), I really want to get to the good DIY stuff! I feel like I need a theme to be able to do so.

our theme is fall! There will be leaves incorporated in to the whole wedding. Our centerpieces (if we decide to not do flowers) are going to be tall vases filed with leaves,and maybe pumpkins cut out in the middle with tea light candles in the center. Our colors are red and orange. so the BMs are going to be in a cranberry color along with the GM. I'm also thinking of having the flower girl sprinkles fake leaves instead of petals... there are many ideas floating around! lol

I looove purple! Lavender is really my favorite color and flower, but we'll see how the dresses look in various shades. I even thought about going gray-ish if I don't like the dark purple.
I don't know where to look for BM dresses though! I don't want the girls to spend too much



I dont want my girls to spend a lot either. I really want to keep it at $150 or less. I know my 1st stop will be Davids Bridal for them. Hopefully the only stop lol



Dessy and Bill Levkoff dresses are around that price. Those are the only two I researched since they both have a similiar purple color that I love.

I orginally wasn't planning on a theme but recently I decided to have a peacock theme. Im not going crazy with it but there will be touches here and there. My BM will be wearing a peacock pin on their dresses and I plan to have a pin on my shoes. Will have some feathers in my bouquet and in CPs. I also want to tie it in with the paper items... invitations, place cards, menus.

You dont need to have a theme unless u want 1 of course. Everything can come together with the colors u choose for your wedding.


I was in Micheals buying my invites for my BM g2g, and I saw the cutest peacock feather themes. You should try it!

Re: Wedding Theme...

I'm not doing a theme - is that weird? I figure it'll just all be pulled together because our guests will just see our individual styles in all the different elements.

Re: Wedding Theme...

I'm not really doing a specific theme.... I've been trying to think of one that would go with our colors. I mean Crest Hollow has the pool and the little beach areas, but its not really a beach so I cant do that as a theme I dont think. Our colors are turquoise, either purple or blueberry, and either white or ivory (depending on my dress color) - I just thought that goes really well with the whole South Beach feel that Crest Hollow has. Any help is appreciated!!

Of course you can do a beach theme if that is what you want! You don't have to have your wedding at the beach to have one.

Re: Wedding Theme...

I am doing a Celtic/Renaissance theme with a few bits and pieces here and there of other interests of ours. I am asking everyone to dress up in period garb, we will have a 'best wishes scroll', tri-folded parchment paper invites sealed with wax, Candles all over, some period music, but not all. Tables will be pictures instead of numbers. The guys will be wearing kilts and the girls a wenches outfit with the skirt matching the kilts.

We will be adding some video game music, anime characters, etc in random places I haven't figured out yet. Hopefully get some of my Dr. Who in there.

He isn't a fan of Dr. Who sadly!


I am thinking I may probably do his grooms cake as a hockey puck with the Islanders logo or something. haven't fully figured it out tho.
