What’s Needed For A Truly Stunning Wedding Day? A Simple Guide To Follow

Everyone has seen it in a movie; think of the rom comedy movie, Monster-in-Law, with Charlie and Kevin’s wedding day. A bride and groom getting married in a truly beautiful location, with a flowing wedding dress, flowers, and great looking food, as well as guests who look like they have just stepped off the runway at Vogue. 

This is, of course, an idealized wedding day and is very Hollywood. However, if you’ve always wanted a beautiful wedding day that your guests will talk about for years, this can be achieved with relative ease. You just need to know what goes into making a truly stunning wedding day, and here, this will be looked at in more depth.

A Stunning Location

First things first, you need to look at the location you choose. This is the setting for your photos, your reception, and, quite possibly, your wedding. So, discuss with your partner what type of location matches both your preferences and then start looking. 

If you have the theme elegant wedding venues, then look for a natural setting, or a truly striking building, such as a castle, a manor house, a country estate, or a high-end hotel. These locations will usually offer set packages, such as the wedding, reception, and catering for a set price.

A Theme

For your wedding to be spectacular, you need to choose a theme that matches you and your partner. If you’re both fans of all things modern, the chances are you won’t want to rent a castle or have a medieval theme. 

To have a truly stunning wedding day, you don’t want to mix and match the themes. Pick a theme and stick to it. If you’re stuck for wedding theme ideas, it’s worth having a look online to see what jumps out at you.

Color Scheme

To have a classy wedding day, you need to have a color scheme. This part is extremely fun to plan and, with most wedding supply stores offering accessories in almost every color there is, there won’t be a shortage of things to spruce up your wedding dress, suit, or reception. Try to make sure that the color scheme works; a classic example is ivory, purple, and gold. Avoid clashing colors, like pink and red, or blue and red.

Lighting 

To make those photos and videos truly pop, you should look into lighting options at the reception, especially if you have a garden or outdoor space to think about. Even having a string of fairy lights can make the dullest outdoor space seem magical, so have a think about the best lighting options for your theme and location.

Flowers

If you have the budget, try to put out as many wedding flowers as you can around the location where you’re having the reception. Talk to the florist about which flowers will match your color scheme and your theme, and then choose the most strategic locations to put them. Usually, the top table at a reception has the largest bouquet, and the other tables have smaller ones, but they all look similar in arrangement.
