When planning your wedding, the wedding venue is often something that you need to decide on first. The problem is that you need to find somewhere that has your preferred date available. At the same time, you need somewhere that you are happy with and a wedding reception venue that will do everything – or as little – as you need doing. Finding a Venue to Suit Your Needs Do you just want a wedding venue for your evening reception or do you need somewhere for the whole event – ceremony included? This is the first question that you need to ask since you cannot get married just anywhere (in the UK). You can only marry in registered buildings, such as churches, register offices and some hotels, castles and stately homes. If you just want somewhere to hold the reception, you will then need to ask yourselves about whether you need someone to supply the catering. You may choose to provide a buffet yourself, which can help to keep down the cost but will mean more hard work for y...

A wedding theme is not a necessity but it can be something fun to add to your day. Many weddings will actually have a theme without realising it. There are many different wedding theme ideas that work well with all types of weddings and other ideas that are for those held at a specific time of the year. Why Have a Wedding Theme? One of the main benefits to a theme is that your wedding will be more memorable. This is especially the case if people enjoy your theme.

Themes for Everyone There are some wedding theme ideas that are suitable for all weddings and all couples. Love hearts, butterflies and roses are great additions if you just want to add a small theme. You do not need to go overboard with them and can just include them on the wedding stationary and in small sections around the ceremony and reception. These simple themes are also a...

Involving a colour scheme for a wedding is often more popular then involving a theme. Wedding colour schemes are often much easier to do and more traditional then using wedding themes. The question that many have is the colour that they should use. Ideas for a Wedding Colour Scheme Wedding colours are decided in a variety of ways. The first is by using the favourite colour of the bride and groom – as long as the two colours do not clash. This means that both of you enjoy the colours for the day and it is not all one-sided. Opting for traditional colours when it comes to the wedding colour schemes is an option. However, it is very easy to go overboard with this. Reds and pinks are extremely common due to the link to being romantic colours. Another option is to link the wedding colours to nationality. This offers a more personal touch to the big day, especially for those who are proud and passionate about their heritage. This is extremely easy to do and could be turne...
