Astrology Theme?

My FH and I decided to do an astrology themed wedding. Broader theme being the significance of all things. We are having our ceremony at the planetarium (the astronomer can have our zodiac constellations above us) and we are also trying to incorporate some numerology.

We are trying to find a way to tie everything in together. I wanted to make little booklets for take home favors that have all the meanings for everything: meaning of the color choices of the wedding and what the colors represent, the meaning of the jewelry and what that means, and all the zodiac signs and what they represent.

We are also doing numerology as to what the number 11 means (our date is 11/11/11) and what having it three times in a row means etc... I am also debating about having that "life path number" in the book where you add up the numbers of your birthday to get one number and what that number says about you.

I just dont know how to tie in decorations at the reception!! I cant find astrology stuff anywhere!!! I have the invites and cake being custom made to have the zodiac stuff in there (not overbearing and cheesy but still there) and I have no idea what to do to decorate the hall. My FH and I are both water signs so our venue is right on the beach, and centerpieces are done, but we dont know about anything else. I thought stars, but that makes it look too "prom-ey" I think.

Help!!

Re: Astrology Theme?

  • Maybe the table numbers could be different signs or constellations?  Like instead of table one it could be "Scorpio."  Do you have a color palette you're working in?  Finding decorations specific to astrology might be difficult, but decorating with a color scheme would be MUCH easier.
  • I think having your guests involved is a great idea. If you help them to identify their own numbers and then explain those numbers they would probably feel more 'in the loop.' I agree with involving signs as table numbers or something.
