Find Your Wedding Style in 4 Easy Steps
Modern, elegant, rustic, or vintage are just some of the possible choices that will define your wedding style. Deciding on a particular one, or even opting for a combination of several different styles in order to create your unique vibe is an essential part of wedding planning. With the plethora of choices, it can sometimes be difficult to opt for the one that you’ll enjoy the most. However, with a few easy steps, you’ll be able to make the best choice.
Look around your home
Your home is the reflection of your personality. Therefore, look around it and get a closer look at your wardrobe to see what the characteristics of your personal style are. Do you like wearing comfortable clothes, easy-going boots and fedora hats? Is your kitchen filled with vintage items and bronze and brown tones? If so, your number one wedding style choice could be rustic. On the other hand, you are maybe more of a girly type that enjoys wearing miniskirts, cute blouses and silver headbands and have a house décor in which white, ivory and rosy tones are predominant. In this case, you might be looking for an elegant and sophisticated wedding.
Find inspiration through various sources
Even if you’ve fantasized about your dream wedding since your childhood, you could never get enough fabulous ideas. Therefore, it’s time you started flipping through the bridal magazines, search the Internet and consult your friends. Bridal magazines are filled with fabulous gowns, accessories and venues that could potentially define your wedding style. Pinterest is one of the best online sources of wedding ideas. You can find inspiration for everything you need there ‒ from a dreamlike venue, through delicious food to the enchanting wedding gowns and bridesmaid dresses. Sometimes thinking about weddings that you’ve been to can also help you decide what you want – or don’t want – yours to be like.
The type of venue
One of the first things you should do, when planning a wedding, is decide on the type of the venue you’d want the ceremony to take place at. Think whether an elegant ballroom is the ideal place, or you’d rather go for a shabby chic barn. On the other hand, maybe the outdoors is a more attractive location, so a beach or a forest wedding would be just the perfect option. Additionally, you could go for a unique venue such as an ice hotel in Sweden, or even a mesmerizing waterfall in Iceland. Going to a remote destination will automatically require an intimate wedding with a small number of guests. Furthermore, don’t forget to consider the service that the venue provides. Be sure to know whether the catering services are included or if you need to think about that as well. An on-site catering will make the wedding styling unique, since the guests will be able to see how the food is prepared on the premises.
Think About the Colours
The one element that amalgamates the entire happening is the choice of colours. A specific colour should unite all the wedding elements including the stationeries, the wedding dress, bridesmaids’ dresses, and finally the venue décor. The colour wheel could be of great help if you haven’t had any particular colour palette in mind. Subtle light shades of green, pink, peach and yellow are about the most loving tones you could include into the wedding décor. Match them with white, to fashion the gorgeous fairy tale wedding.
Choosing the wedding style is challenging but essential at the same time. You can’t have the perfect wedding unless you know what kind of an ambience you want to create. Therefore, follow the previously mentioned tips and you’ll easily figure out whether you want a rustic, modern, elegant or vintage wedding.
