Is your big day looming on the horizon? Too exciting! You will have a million and one things that you need to organise and decide on. For starters there is the dress, then there is the venue, and then there is the entertainment, and of course the food… and don’t forget the decorations! Yes the decorations are the finishing touch to your wedding, they are the flourish that brings the whole thing together, so while you have a million other things to decide on and organise you cannot let them slip, this one is important. This guide will help you work out what decorations you want, be it garden or beach wedding decorations.
You need to know where you are having the wedding first. That is obviously a huge factor in the type of decorations that you are going to use. If you are going to have a traditional wedding that goes from a church to a marquee or venue then this will mean you need different decorations than if you are going to have it on the beach. Make sure you have locked in a venue before you work out what decorations you want.
Next, you need to work out what the theme of the wedding is before you get decorations. There are a few issues around this. For starters, while most of you will be having what could be termed a €traditional’ theme, others may be going all out. They may want a 1930s look, or they may even want a Star Trek theme. This will have a major influence on your decoration choice so make sure you have the theme locked in first as well.
The next thing you need to have worked out is what colours you are going to use for your wedding. These will be the colours you use for your invites and for the flowers and for the decorations and even the bridesmaids dresses. Knowing what the colours are will help with decorations as well.
Now you can start thing about the decorations. You need to work out what bridal table decorations you are going to have. Do you want to go for elegant or quirky? Do you want to go for minimal or over the top? Do a Google search to see what others have done, make a folder for your ideas.
Then you need to find a company that can supply, beach, traditional and garden wedding decorations.
