Ideas for Wedding Themes and How to Use Them


Many people now opt for a color scheme or a theme to their wedding. Color schemes offer something subtle and can also create a formal look, which may be something that you are looking for, while wedding themes offer fun and romance. There are plenty of options to choose from when it comes to incorporating themes or color schemes are here are some popular options.

Using a Butterfly Theme

The butterfly theme is one of the most popular wedding themes and is extremely simple to do. The benefit of this option is that it does not go too over the top and you can just add subtle hints of the theme – including subtle hints on your wedding invitations or save the date cards. Another benefit is the fact that butterflies can be used within a budget wedding.

Flowers are another popular option and like butterflies are extremely easy to use. A flower wedding theme is something that my partner and I are using since I am from Yorkshire – White Rose County (for those who do not understand this, check out any history about the War of the Roses and the battles between the Houses of York and Lancaster in the 15th century). My partner is from Scotland, so we are using a white rose and thistle idea.

Using Your Color Scheme or Theme

Whichever idea you choose, it is like that you are looking for ways to incorporate in your wedding. One of the easiest ways, depending on the theme, is through the wedding invitations. You can create a multidimensional look by using craft butterflies or dried flowers on your invites to send to guests. Another option is to use it for your table decorations.

A wedding color scheme is extremely easy to use. It is possible to opt for bridesmaid dresses in the color scheme and also look for chair covers and sashes. This is arguably one of the easiest options for any wedding, especially for a budget wedding.

Dealing with the Cost of Guests for Destination Weddings

Image
Enjoy your destination wedding. Image by Grand Velas Riviera Maya One of the downsides of a destination wedding is that all your guests may not be able to attend. It commonly leads to the idea of paying for your guests but this could blow your budget. There is also the possibility that your guests expect you to pay for their travel since you want them to be a part of your big day. So, how should you deal with this cost of destination weddings? Pay for Immediate Family and Friends One option is to pay for those close to you – the people in your bridal party and the closer relatives, like grandparents and siblings. This means that the people you really want to be there will be able to attend, without having to worry about the cost. The rest of your friends and family will have to spend their own money to attend; just don’t complain if they can make it for their own budget problems. Pay for Part of the Costs If you want to make sure all your guests can make it, o...

Avoid the Risks of a Cheap Wedding Photographer

Wedding photography is something that most – if not all – couples want at the wedding? I know it’s definitely something that I want. Photographs hold all the memories that fade over time so you can look back on the day and remember with a smile. The problem with wedding photographers is that they can be expensive. While I was looking around for wedding photographers, I found that they were coming up to between £2000 and £3000 for a full day and that didn’t even include the albums or copies of the photos! I would have to pay extra for that! However, I’ve managed to find someone to do the whole day of photography for between £300 and £500, depending on the type of album my partner and I end up choosing, perfect for my budget wedding. How did I do it? As you know from my previous post, I went to a friend who is taking a photography degree at university. She is getting into the wedding photography side and I asked her how much she was charging. Since she is still learning, she quoted...

How Much Should You Spend on Your Wedding?

Image
I recently saw a thread on a forum about people spending tens of thousands of pounds on their wedding. There does seem to be a big move into spending a large amount on one day. To some that’s stupid but to others it’s their dream. How much should you spend on your wedding? Honestly, I believe it should be as cheap or as expensive as you’d like. Okay, so you can’t do it for free, but you don’t need to spends thousands if you don’t want. There are low-cost venue options and you can keep the guest list to the bare minimum. If you don’t want Great-Aunt Dot at your wedding day then there’s no need to invite her (unless of course Great-Aunt Dot is like your mother and is paying for the wedding). We didn’t want to spend a fortune. We had a small budget, with most of it going on the venue and food. We found a cheaper wedding photographer, I got my wedding dress off eBay, and some of the additions were gifts from some of the guests. That being said…if you want to spend...
