Choosing a Style, Theme or Color Scheme
Once you've decided on what type of a wedding you are going to have, you can choose your color scheme to carry throughout your wedding and reception. You may have  a favourite color or you may have seen a color scheme used at a wedding or event you attended. You have every color of the rainbow to choose from with limitless shades and combinations. If you want to be traditional, use solid colors. If you want to be contemporary, use black and white, pastel or shaded combinations. If you are planning a theme wedding, the theme itself will dictate your colors.

Every wedding has a theme:
In theory every wedding has a theme; some are just more obvious than others. If you plan to have a special theme wedding it is probably because you don't want a wedding "like everyone else". Therefore, you'll need lots of time to research every detail to make it happen. Details will include the environment, menu, music, entertainment, invitations, wedding program, place cards, costumes for staff and most important of all, your wedding outfits.

The easiest theme to choose is one that is close to you - like your home province or a country you have visited. You are only limited by your imagination. If you aren't sure what theme you would like, develop a theme page and start to research different ideas.

Themes and budget to consider:
• Your home province or a country that has special meaning to you.
• Black and white; black, white and gold or silver
• Candlelight.
• Ethnic.
• Holiday.
• Seasonal.
• On the beach.
• In a park.
• In-door or out-door garden.
• Hearts and flowers.
• Historical.
• Evening.
• Midnight.
• Military.
• Circus, carnival or casino.
• Roaring twenties with mirror balls.
• Big band.
• Medieval.
• Caribbean.
• Fairy tale.
• Elvis & the '50s rock 'n roll.
• Movie themes such as: Titanic, Gone with the Wind.
• A hobby or sport that either one of you enjoy.
• Unique tourist places.
• Country with or without farm animals.
• Hobbies that either one of you enjoy.
• A wacky wedding such as a helicopter ride over Niagara Falls.
• In a hot air balloon.
• White water rafting.

Before you start creating your budget for your theme wedding you'll also have to decide if you want it to be formal or informal and if it's to be a religious ceremony or a civil one. Once you've established these guidelines, you can start developing the list of items you require for your theme. If you are getting married in a place that is new to you, ask if there are any special requirements before you set your wheels in motion. As you develop your unique wedding plan and budget, you'll be encountering all sorts of things you hadn't thought of. If something is too difficult, look for an alternative. Depending on how important it is or what it is, you can rent, borrow or buy props. Be ready to compromise without losing sight of your original theme.
