Re: Themes

Hey DIAMONDS you are really on the ball. Thanks for sharing. My wedding theme is Victorian Elegance. I was originally planning to have my ceremony at a museum, now that is up in the air. What is your theme?

Oh Oh the po po is on duty! (lol). We talked about endless love when another bride and I shared our stories of long-term love and if I remember correctly you made a comment about another endless love. As of 12/15/05 my theme has been Victorian Elegance. It was actually Bossie's suggestion for me. Since I was getting married in a museum, I thought it was fitting. (See post under Wedding Themes, "Something Other Than Tiffany". The ViBride sistahood came through for me once again! But you know we think alike anyway.

Re: Themes

Okay I just thought of this...I saw a magazine cover last year with unique christmas theme!

For a "different", more "white christmas" theme how about:

Colors: Baby blue and white or All White (Silver or Gold Detail)

Location: At home, country inn or at church

Flowers: Any white flowers, white ponsiettas add "snow-covered" Christmas trees (Possible centerpiece?) and/or wreaths on reception or ceremony door

Special touches: White vanilla, pie or cookie-scented candles, egg nog, white russian martinis or kahlua drinks. White and baby blue M&M's, white chocolate covered pretzels and strawberries on the fruit trays and/or candy table. Bridesmaids can wear white fur shawl or carry a "crystal bouquet" or white flower arrangement with crystals in them, and baby blue dresses. Groomsmen: black suits or tuxedoes with baby blue details.

Favors: 1) Butter cookies wrapped in clear cellophane with a unique "label" with a baby blue ribbon. 2) Souvenier mugs with white chocolate flavored hot chocolate with marshmallows in a plastic bag. 3)Beautiful silver or gold (which ever is your accent color) ornament in the shape of a snowflake, star, angel, etc, with the couple's names and wedding date, along with a beautiful saying (I think this website has possible gift ideas for this)

Cake: All white, any shape (round, square, heart, octagon) with a lace or scroll design. Or try "snow or ice covered" (really its sugar)fruit. Try a design with the ribbon draping (someone had it on another post)....Of course the popular cake shaped like presents will work also.

We've been Happily Married 2 Years and Counting:)
