For example, we\u2019ll start to see the entire wedding based upon a particular reading, like the Owl and the Pussycat, which is becoming more popular as couples shy away from traditional love-based or religious musings, or perhaps a more nautical theme, like Titanic, that turns the usual into the more unusual. Suited to all seasons, you can easily incorporate this styling into every aspect of your wedding, whether you opt for an indoor or outdoor ceremony.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Fantastical wedding<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">What could be more outlandish and fun than stepping into the world of Alice in Wonderland, or maybe Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? Whether you want to bring the Mad Hatter to your party, or would rather sample the sweet delights of Willy Wonka, the fantastical theme will help your wedding and the after party start and end with a bang. Bright colours, wonky decor and brash props make this a standout theme for 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Get colourful!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Top tips for colour trends and theming for 2016 is all about being bold and brave with colour. It\u2019s time to lose the pastel pinks and make your wedding pop. It\u2019s all about making a big impact and sophisticated fun. This works really well with a Mexican themed wedding \u2013 think Mexican fiesta bunting, jars of colourful punch, colourful flower wreaths in your hair \u2013 or alternative wedding gowns that don\u2019t necessarily fit to the white or ivory stereotypes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Party decor<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">It\u2019s goodbye to bunting and hello 2016 is the year of balloons, streamers and real plants as the centrepiece on tables. We\u2019ve long been a fan of getting creative at weddings with colours and objects and we\u2019re super-happy to see colour-coded props and peg boards making an appearance. It won\u2019t lose that handmade feel though, so crafty-types, don\u2019t fear. Feel free to add your personal touches to the entire experience and let your creativity run wild!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Retro<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Feeling as though the vintage theme may be a bit too old-fashioned, but still looking to inject a bit of nostalgic fun into your big day? How about opting for a retro theme instead? Take a trip back to the 1950s and give your wedding a Grease-like feel, complete with diner-style food, multi-coloured straws and maybe even hire a vending machine or bar to finish the venue off properly.
