“Not only do I have to pick a color palatte, I have to have a theme too?!”  Don’t worry, choosing a theme doesn’t have to be complicated or extravagant. The theme is meant to reflect a bit of your personality  into the mood of the day.  Some themes can even be fun and stress free like this country fresh theme.

    Perfect for an outdoor wedding in spring or summer, a country fresh theme is simple, breezy and a little eccletic.  Pick cheerful colors such as yellow or robin’s egg blue …or be bold and add red!  Don’t worry about being “matchy matchy”, instead put together colors and patterns that are unique add to the charm. Try pairing these cute polka dot dishes with striped ones from Fishs Eddy . Think out of the box for table decor and fill vintage tin cans with flowers or use props instead of flowers like picture frames or paper fans.

  • Country Fresh bouquets should be simple and sweet.  You could even pick your own wildflowers and tie with a satin ribbon to be budget friendly, when season permits.  Try a riot of different flowers like daisies, columbine and sunflowers wrapped together, or placed in a basket for you to carry.

    Sweet antique looking details will add whimsical charm, like fun cake toppers or chalkboard reception signs. These adorable notes are the perfect way to say “thanks”! This particular theme makes it easy to stay in budget and be eco friendly by reusing and recyling found items like this bathtub.

  • Go for casual comfort food when planning around this theme.  Comfort food can be elegant, too, like a rosemary roasted chicken sandwhich with plump tomatoes and avocados from DuMont Restaurant.  At one of our recent weddings, bride Arlene Jackson chose Dinsoaur Bar-B-Que which served down home bbq at its best.

This theme is especially simple and stress free because of its light and casual nature. No matter what your theme is, you’ll stress less if you communicate your likes and dislikes to your planner.  We’ll be able to find those minutae that match your vision and take the pressure off so you can enjoy celebrating your new beginning!
