Creating Unique Weddings
More and more couples are choosing to make their wedding into a fun, unique or unusual event with a variety of different themes, costumes, decorations, cake toppers, and accessories. This might mean having a holiday themed wedding, outdoor wedding, costume wedding, destination wedding, or any type of theme wedding that appeals to the tastes and interests of the couple. These unique wedding themes can be a lot of fun to plan and a lot more fun to participate in. Consider some of these great and unusual wedding themes when planning your own wedding.
Getting married on a specific holiday is a great theme to choose for any wedding because it automatically comes with its own theme. The colors themselves are often representative of the holiday itself, so that makes it easy to decide on the overall color scheme. Consider getting married on Christmas, New Years Eve, Halloween, Valentine’s Day, Fat Tuesday, St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Thanksgiving, or the Fourth of July.
Historical weddings are great for those who like getting dressed up in period costumes and recreate the feeling of a bygone era. Oftentimes the wedding venue will lend itself to a historical wedding theme and inspire you to don costumes rather than the traditional wedding wear. For instance, if you want to get married in a castle, you can dress up as a princess and knight in shining armor. A wedding in a barn can just as easily be turned into a full blown Old West gold rush or saloon bar wedding. No matter what you choose, make sure you let your guests know that they are expected to come dressed in the costumes of the period so that everyone can be transported to another time and place.
Many couples met and fell in love while enjoying a certain sports activity or being fans of a particular sports team. Choosing a sports wedding theme is a great way to show your love for both your spouse and your team. The colors are generally predetermined and you can have a lot of fun with unique sports related centerpieces, table decorations, cake toppers, and accessories. Also, instead of playing the traditional wedding song as you walk down the aisle, you might want to play your team’s fight song in honor of your love for each other and your favorite sport.
