My Top 3 Essential Tips for Wedding Decorating Success

1. Define Your Style

Before diving into decorating define the style and theme you want for your wedding whether it’s rustic, chic, vintage, glamour, modern minimalism, or bohemian romance having a clear vision will guide your decor choices and create a cohesive look throughout the venue.  Pinterest is a wonderful place to get inspiration. However, your home and the clothes you wear all leave clues to your personal style and the “look” you like.   Don’t go shopping without a plan. You will likely end up with a bunch of “Stuff” that doesn’t go together. The plan should be thought out and cohesive. Décor can build off a theme or an idea but keep building so that there is an underlying foundation or basis that brings it all together.

• Focus on Key Elements

Instead of trying to decorate every inch of the venue focus on key elements that will make the biggest impact this could include the ceremony backdrop, reception tablescape and focal points like the sweetheart table or dessert table.  By prioritizing these areas, you can allocate your budget and efforts effectively create stunning focal points that leave a lasting impression. Don’t forget that one special feature of the venue you fell in love with and made you “had to have it.”.   

• Incorporate Personal Touches.

I cannot stress this enough always, always infuse your personality and story as a couple into the decor to make it truly unique and meaningful.  Whether it’s displaying family photos, incorporating sentimental items, or incorporating elements that reflect your hobbies and interests, personal touches add warmth and authenticity to the celebration.  Guests will appreciate the personalization and feel more connected to the event. Without this element, it can be anybody’s love story.
