Start with the essentials.īy now, you hopefully have your venue and a good idea of what it needs to become the wedding space of your dreams. And don't forget to ask your venue coordinator if they have any decor items they can supply-even if they don't, they can recommend decor ideas based on what has been done by other couples in the past. If you’re working with a wedding planner or event stylist, they should be able to create mockups of the space with various decor to give you a good idea of the end result. Use pictures of previous weddings that took place at your venue to help you envision exactly what you want to use, and where. In those cases, going overboard with decor could detract from your venue’s scenery, which we’re guessing is one of the reasons you chose it in the first place. For example, if you’re getting married at an outdoor venue, such as a beach, lakefront, or anywhere else with a view, you may not need much decor to begin with. Depending on the venue, you might be able to skip decor in some areas, thanks to the existing elements. Consider how you can design your wedding decor to highlight those details, and how you can benefit from using them. It might already have a lot of existing charm or otherwise decorative features, such as built-in accent walls, landscaped gardens, fountains, stained glass windows, lighting fixtures, or ceiling beams.

Check out these wedding color trends to see if anything matches your style or sparks your interest.
This approach gives you the opportunity to have a few “focus” colors while also adding similar hues to round out your decor, ultimately creating a more authentic look. Instead of “gray and white” for example, think of a “neutrals” color palette consisting of ivory, beige, and colors with gray undertones, like charcoal, olive green, and khaki. While it’s important to know the general wedding colors you want, try to be open-minded and use the color palette as a guideline for your wedding decor rather than feeling obligated to have everything match perfectly. Be flexible with your wedding color palette. Tell your vendors something like, “I want a relaxed atmosphere with rustic and bohemian undertones” to leave room for creativity and flexibility when choosing your wedding decor. Focus more on the feeling you want your wedding to evoke (relaxed, romantic, modern, edgy) instead of limiting yourself to a specific theme (rustic, beachy), which sometimes feel overdone or clichéd. Your original wedding vision is likely to change throughout the early stages of your wedding planning process, especially once you begin to factor in budget, guest count, season, etc., so it's better hold off on ordering those ultra-trendy table numbers-for now at least.įeeling stuck when it comes to describing your wedding aesthetic? We know that it can be hard to put your dream wedding vision into words, or to choose just one wedding style and stick with it, so if you’re struggling, don’t think of your wedding style as the be-all and end-all.
