Wedding planning has been thrown into chaos in the last year. Now that lockdown easing is allowing slightly larger gatherings for weddings, how do you make your big day stand out from the crowd?
As wedding invitations criss-cross their way around the UK in anticipation of summer weddings, many couples will now be looking forward to planning their big day once more
Happily ever after stories
What could be more wedding that celebrating happily ever after. Fairy tales have long been the driving force behind our wedding dreams. So why not celebrate with a fairy tale themed wedding?
You could go dark and gothic with a Brothers Grimm inspired wedding. Alternatively, go super cute and girly with a Disney© princess themed wedding that celebrates the tales that set your dreams of happily ever after in motion.
Old Hollywood glamour
A tried and tested theme but nevertheless a glitzy one, old Hollywood glamour exudes the opulence of cinema’s most audacious era. You could focus on theming your wedding around your favourite old Hollywood couple (think Liz Taylor and Richard Burton).
Alternatively, choose your favourite classic file and build your wedding into that world. Trés chic!
Countryside festival and glamping
Even as we are allowed to socialise again, staying in the great outdoors is a good way to get people together and help them feel safe. A festival style wedding in a wide open field allows for a rip-roaring wedding while giving the option to socially distance.
Yurt style marquees, festoon lighting, outdoor bars and street-food vendors are a great way to get that festival feel. You could even set up glamping areas for guest who want to celebrate your union until the early hours.
Ultra-chic white party
While most brides would bauk at the idea of any of their guests wearing white, an ultra-chic white party could give your wedding the glam affect you are looking for. Take inspiration from the wedding of Solange Knowles, or Diddy’s annual white party.
Best reserved for exceptionally sunny weddings, the white party theme works well if you are getting married some hot. Think beach cabana or yacht for ultimate glam points.
The Great Gatsby blowout
Use your big day as a launch pad for the roaring 2020s by taking inspiration from the original raucous decade of decadence. The Great Gatsby has inspired themed parties the world over and offers an opulent option full of Art Deco glamour.
You could go all out and require guests to arrive in traditional 1920s clothing. Or just hint at a roaring 20s theme with modern updates that draw inspiration from the colour palette and aesthetic of the era.
