Defining your Style
The most unique weddings are a combination of the bride's and groom's tastes and cultural, and religious backgrounds.
Plan a date for you and your fiancé so that you can relax and be creative and talk about the most romantic wedding you two can imagine. Perhaps you have a dream of having your wedding in an ancient Scottish castle or on a secluded beach, maybe in an old church with rolling hills for an outdoor reception in tents. In the process of dreaming big, you will start to identify the thematic framework that shapes every creative decision along the way.
You'll start to identify a unifying theme - as simple as a color or a flower, or as complex as a period in time, a
particular culture, or even a favorite place. Think about the big picture, an overall vision for your celebration. You'll be able to weave a thread of style throughout your wedding; from the designs of the invitations, flowers and the decoration on the cake, to the type of music that the band or DJ plays during the ceremony and the celebration that follows. Talk about what you both like and dislike about the weddings you've attended. Eventually you will begin to paint a detailed verbal picture for all of the wedding event vendors you will meet down the road.
To help both of you define your sense of style and really dream big, have fun with the following list of questions. Your answers will offer helpful clues to the kind of celebration that is right for the two of you.
- Here is a picture of a cake my son made for a party. It is pulled sugar that makes wave sculpture.
- Personal touches are always important.
