October 2013 Weddings

Can't focus on a theme!

So, this is my second wedding and the first time I did the whole color thing and thats about it. I did a lot of DIY and various shades of blue but didn't really even KNOW that there were such things as 'themes' until almost the wedding. I figured I would do a theme for an anniversary party or something.

Now, I KNOW I don't want to do the typical color thing. It was soooooo cool and pretty the first time but I obviously want the second to be different. I like so many themes though, I just can't nail one down! LOL! Opinions on the following, ladies?

Fall colors throughout - kind of a given but can't let it rest at that, like I did the first time
Celtic/Scottish(him)/Irish(me) - he is wearing his family kilt, although we are both changing our name, which is - out of ALL the colors in the world - yellow! ugh! and reddish brownish, which feed into the fall colors theme

So, now I need a crazy theme - okay, I don't NEED one but I really want one, like a full one (like LOTR, WOW, DnD, farmers, theatre, etc). We are both dorks/nerds but in different ways, he works for the USPS, I am in school, he has a kid and I don't so:

*Pets (both very into dogs and cats and his daughter is CRAZY into them)
*Electronics (TV, phone, laptop, music) - both always on them and we love singing together in the car (both very bad at it, though, lol)
*Gothic Medieval - daughter very into this but him not as much, me sorta
*Fairies/renaissance kinda thing - we're all 'sorta' into this

Grrrr!!!! LOL This is gonna be a fun two years, I'm really enjoying this (as much as I may sound stressed, I'm not!)!

Re: Can't focus on a theme!

  • My theme is that this is my wedding... our love for each other & the things we enjoy sharing together in life will shine through with little personal touches of "us." Don't need a movie or anything to focus on for a theme. Our style is rustic elegance with purples and grays, but as for "theme," it's us :) Focus on the two of you, and it will fall into place with the details you choose throughout the process. Enjoy!
