By giving your wedding a theme, you will make your wedding day personal and unique to you. To help you plan your own big-day<\/a> theme, we\u2019ve created a handy tips that should help you along the way.<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t just follow a fashion. If you both love music then why not choose that as your wedding theme inspiration? You can have invitations that reflect the type of music you love, you can have a live band playing at your reception and you could even take a turn at the microphone yourselves.<\/p>\n

Or if you\u2019re both city people and are planning a metropolitan big day then use that as part of your theme. Maybe have a city landscape on your invitations and hold your reception in a funky loft-style venue. You just need to really think about what expresses the two of you as a couple and take it from there.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re having a music-themed wedding then you could burn a CD of your favourite music and put a copy at every place setting. Try not to give favours that are completely random and have nothing to do with your wedding theme<\/a>, think about what will fit in. They don\u2019t need to cost much money, but they should be relevant.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re having a country garden wedding theme, then maybe have your wedding in a marquee or a barn. A function room in a hotel won\u2019t have quite the effect you\u2019re looking for, so shop around for something that fits.<\/p>\n

Try not to do these things: Brides often fall into the trap of thinking they need a theme AND a colour scheme. One or the other will be fine, but both can make the reception a bit of a shambles, with lots of extra work for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re having a vintage theme, then don\u2019t insist that everybody dresses in vintage-style clothes. The fact that they have made the effort and have almost certainly spent money to attend your wedding should be enough to ask of your guests. If they want to dress up and follow the theme then that\u2019s fine \u2013 but don\u2019t insist upon it.<\/p>\n

Finally, you don\u2019t have to have a theme if you don\u2019t want to, it\u2019s all up to you! It\u2019s your day and you should do it your way.<\/span><\/p>\n
