Flowers, Themes, Descriptions, AHHH!

So, I am having a hard time describing our wedding theme. Or if we even have one. The thing that brought this whole thing up was our photographer sent us home with paperwork to fill out describing our wedding.

My colors are David's Bridal Malibu Blue, yellow, pink, and purple.

I began assuming in the beginning that I would love doing this flowers and choosing all of that. Now, I feel overwhelmed and despise it. I am trying to stay away from roses because neither the FI nor I want them. Maybe thinking daisies and mums.

We're getting married and having the reception at the Everal Barn in Westerville. I just feel like I am running around in circles with my head cut off.

We're also only having like a 3 hour reception. No dancing. No garter. It's oof fairly conservative.

Just found out that it's National Chocolate Pudding Day, too.. hahah

We're having a salad and potato bar (it's a relatively small wedding, about 80 total...)

It's also a Tuesday, June 26 at 1:00pm. I can't see having an overly formal wedding, but we both want people to at least come in their "Sunday Best."

If you have ideas, please let me know. Or any suggestions... etc.

Thanks.

I don't think you really need a theme. We wanted a romantic feel to our wedding, but other than that the theme was wedding. Your colors seem very summery. I think colorful daisies would be beautiful with the colors you listed. I would suggest sticking to 1-2 main colors and then accenting with the other colors if you want so that everything goes together. It sounds like you are on the right track. On a side note, are you doing save the dates? They are usually not necessary, but since you are getting married on a Tuesday afternoon it might be nice to give people a heads up so they can plan way ahead for work and everything. Just a thought:-)

Thankfully, our wedding is all family and a few friends that live locally. So, save the dates aren't necessary. And, out of budget for us.

The Malibu Bue and purple are the main colors, the yellows and pinks are accenting shades.

Good to know that I am not the only one without a theme.

The only thing I kept thinking was like "southern" theme. I am originally from GA, and he was raised "southern-ly" if you will.

Henceforth, the daisies and simplicity of the wedding.

I don't have a theme either and if i do I did not decide that. So themes are not a big deal, unless you are going for that of course.

I agree I would stick to 2 main colors and accent the others, like adding a little in a ribbon or the flowers. You don't want it to look like a circus.

No theme for me! We just went for the "romantic feel" since the reception is in a romantic place. Your colors sound gorgeous!

Oh good. We are getting married in a barn. It's not like a nasty barn. It's got a really rustic feel to it and it fits us well. So, I guess our theme would be "rustic."

Thanks for brainstorming with me.
