If you've chosen to have your own themed wedding, you can select great wedding decorations, colors, invitations, and wedding favors to accommodate your Valentines Day wedding theme. Set your budget and prepare to make a list of all the items you will need.
Flowers Think white, pink, and of course-red. White flowers represent purity. Pink flowers represent passion. Red for everlasting love. Put the three colors together and you have a powerful combination that expresses your sweetest sentiments to your spouse and all of your guests. Different flowers to consider are roses and carnations, perhaps even white lilies.
Decorations You don't want your wedding to look commercialized like the window display at a card store. Avoid large cupid cut-outs and gigantic teddy bears. Of course it's a themed wedding, but you still want to capture intimacy and elegance. For theming your centerpieces, you can consider large frosted bowls filled with water, lit floating votives, and red rose petals. The table can be accented with red silky fabric tablecloths, which can be cut from a fabric store. A small table can hold everyone's place-setting. In the center of all the cards, a large fishbowl can hold two beta fish. The fish are meant to add a relaxing element. Although fish aren't exactly considered romantic-it represents the idea of a "two" in harmony.
Favors It's quite easy to accommodate a Valentine's Day themed wedding with favors. You can give your guests Hershey kisses in a sachet, personalized sweetheart candies that say "thank you (last name) family," Jordan almonds in the shape of a heart, sugar cookies, chocolate covered pretzels, or a CD of memorable love songs that played during the night.
Cutting Corners The Head table should be decorated with exceptional taste. Nevertheless, this doesn't mean that you should go out of your budget. If you can not afford fresh-cut flowers for the Head table, make a large arrangement of silk flowers (which can look quite realistic). If you can not arrange your own flowers, have silk arrangements ordered from your local florist.
If you're not satisfied with the presentation of your chairs/table, get creative and make them work with your theme. Arts and craft stores can become your best friend if you let your imagination run wild. Fabrics, Ribbons, and Pillows can add a tough of love and comfort to anything. It also shows that you put a lot of effort into customizing your wedding.
In order to have all the details follow your theme, you have to consider every item in your wedding. The decoration, invitation, wedding favors etc. are all under the framework of your wedding theme. When planning for all this items, you will also need to set your budget to see how far you can go.
When you are searching for the floral decoration of your reception hall, white and pink colors are certainly some of the choices. Red is also very popular for a Valentine's Day wedding theme. You may also choose rose as the flower for your decorations. You will try to arrange different colors together to see how it goes. You need to do it by trial and error and find a combination you will love most. You will then apply the combinations to different part of your decorations.
When we talk about Valentine's Day, you may probably think of a large cupid. You may also have an image in your mind, with extra large teddy bears. However, it will make your decorations look like a commercial shopping window. As a result, you should try to avoid these elements if you can. Again, you may think about the decorations with the flowers in your mind. How about put the rose petals on the floor to make it become a sea of rose petals. If you are going to use cupid, you may also consider using projectors to project images of cupid on the walls and ceiling of the reception venue.
When it comes to your invitation, you may still want to use rose and cupid. However, you may also think of other ideas. For example, you can die-cutting some heart shapes on the card to make it more romantic.
You should also consider how you can make your wedding favors go with your theme. Chocolates will be one of the best choices to this end. However, you do not just buy some chocolates from the supermarket. You may need to find someone to make it for you. Heart shape is certainly a very popular choice. You may also think of using the initials of you and your spouse to make the shape of the chocolate.
