Wedding themes and ideas.

[fireheart]

You could always do a kilt blowing wedding...

[Mytical]

Lol.. no..no scarring the guests for the rest of their lives thanks.

Oh and make sure you wedding favors match your theme. I can't think of suggestions, but I'm sure you both have amazing ideas.

Ah, for wedding favours, the plan is to have little bags made to match whatever colours we use, and they will contain M&M's (for Mytical and Marmalady)

You can get M&M's printed with photos or words on them, they even do a wedding service.

So you guys could easily get a mix of ones that say "Mytical & Marmalady" "Wedding Date" and your photos?

[Marmalady]

I didn't know that! *grins* But I do now...

He doesn't want to wear a monkey suit and a tie, I don't want a strapless dress and a spray tan. What we want, above all, is a joyful occasion, a celebration, with everyone relaxed and comfortable and enjoying themselves.

I will just say this, though....These plans are very exciting to make, but as I have told Myt, if all we can afford is to go to the local registrar in whatever we have that's clean and pressed, followed by a cup of tea and a bun in a cafe, that would be just fine with me

I wholeheartedly agree, one hundred percent.

One of my good friends (for whom I will be maid of honor) is doing a Queen of Hearts theme from Alice in Wonderland. I'm pretty excited for that.

I think both autumn and winter weddings sound lovely. As someone said before, with autumn, you can play around with the natural colors outside. It's such a pretty season. With winter, everything is white and pure and just beautiful, but I also think that winter kind of sucks with driving situations and weather hazards. Had to miss a cousin's wedding before because the roads were icy as hell and we spun out a few times attempting the drive.

[Marmalady]

That would be the thing that would put me off.... possible hazards on the roads, I wouldn't want to think of anyone being in danger trying to get to the wedding.

Questionfrom a newb....where is wedding going to be?

[Mytical]

We have seen a couple of places we like (Marm has the links) and are still deciding on that. I am hoping for something like a Ren Faire or similar type place. Most likely in England.

[Marmalady]

I would dearly love something along the lines of these places....

Or there's a 16th century barn not very far away from me.....all fully restored

When my cousin got married she didn't have bridesmaid's and groomsmen. She had a Bride's Crew and a Groom's Crew. So both sides of the wedding party were a mix of genders based on who was most important to the Bride or Groom. For example her brothers and sisters were in her crew along with one of her female best friends, and he had his sister, one of his male best friends, and a few female best friends.

It was nice because each person got to have the people they care most for on their side.

...that is a seriously cute idea. o.o Borrowing that for if/when I get married.

Same here. Especially because I have quite a few male friends who I'm sure would look great in my crew, while my boyfriend has some female friends he'd want to use in his crew =p

@Marmalady: Those are absolutely beautiful venues and they'd work so well for a wedding on a nice, clear Autumn day. I love them!
