Renaissance
Large
chunky candles are a very important part of this theme, as well as
choosing a location with plenty of stonework. Decorate with elegant
tapestries, ivy leaves, wheat, and small wildflowers. Feed your guests
their own individual meat pies, cheese, breads, and wine. Have your
bridesmaids and groomsmen wear dark colors, such as green or purple.
Bride can have long flowing hair with small braids, and a wreath of
flowers. Give your guests a cd with the songs from your wedding.
Victorian
A
large white gown complete with ruffles and lace is required for this
theme. Wear your hair pinned up and curled at the ends along with a
pearl necklace and earrings. Send your groom, groomsmen, bridesmaids,
and yourself off to dance lessons to learn some of the dances that
were performed. Many of them were group dances, and would add a lovely
performance to your reception. Decorate with vibrant flowers, such as
those that are found in many English gardens. Serve your guests many
delicate pastries and some afternoon tea.
1960's
Think
Woodstock…decorate with bright rich colors, including tye-died
accessories. The bride and bridesmaids should wear light gowns with
flowing hair, and the groom and groomsmen should wear pants with
bright, loose flowing shirts. Listen to songs from The Grateful Dead,
Bob Dylan, etc. Send your guests off with mood rings or hemp
necklaces.
1970's
Celebrate
your wedding disco style. Break out the bellbottoms, short skirts, and
platform shoes to dance your night away. Decorate with a huge disco
ball, lava lamps, and flashing lights. Send your guests home with a cd
of all the songs played from your reception, so that they can have fun
dancing with their significant other, time and time again.
