So, You're planning your perfect wedding but can't decide what your theme should be?...we've got you sorted!
Think of your wedding theme as the overall story you want to tell. It’s not just about matching napkins (though, let’s be honest, that is important). It’s about creating an atmosphere. And no, it doesn’t have to be some super specific, Pinterest-perfect, pre-packaged “rustic chic” or “fairytale romance” nonsense. It can be as unique and quirky as you are!
Here’s the lowdown on finding your theme:
- Think about your loves: What are you and your partner obsessed with? Is it vintage vinyl? Indie films? Hiking in the mountains? Pizza? (Pizza is a valid theme, FYI). Don’t be afraid to get personal! Your wedding should reflect your passions.
- Consider the setting: Are you getting married in a swanky London bar, a bohemian beach hut, or your grandma’s garden? The venue can heavily influence the vibe. A rustic barn might lend itself to a more folksy theme, while a modern art gallery could inspire something sleek and contemporary.
- Don’t be afraid to mix and match: Who says you can’t blend a little bit of vintage glamour with a touch of industrial chic? The most interesting themes are often the unexpected ones. Think “Rock ‘n’ Roll Garden Party” or “Urban Jungle Love Fest.” Get creative!
- Mood Board Magic: Pinterest is your best friend (and sometimes your worst enemy… we’ve all been there). Create a mood board with images, colours, textures, and anything else that inspires you. This will help you visualize your theme and keep things cohesive.

Colour Me Crazy (in a good way!)
Once you’ve got a general idea of your theme, it’s time to tackle the colour scheme. This is where things can get a little… overwhelming. But don’t panic! Here are some tips to keep you on track:
- Start with a hero colour: Pick one colour that you absolutely love. This will be the dominant colour in your scheme.
- Add some supporting players: Choose 2-3 other colours that complement your hero colour. Think about the colour wheel – analogous colours (those next to each other) create a harmonious look, while complementary colours (those opposite each other) add a pop of contrast.
- Consider the season: Spring weddings often feature pastel hues, while autumn calls for richer, warmer tones. But hey, rules are made to be broken! If you want a deep plum in the middle of summer, go for it!
- Don’t be afraid of neutrals: Neutrals like white, grey, and beige can be your secret weapon. They provide a backdrop for your bolder colours to shine and prevent things from getting too chaotic.
- Test it out: Before you commit to a colour scheme, order some paint swatches or fabric samples. See how the colours look in different lighting and make sure they work well together.
