Wedding decor is very important (in my mind) because it ties together all the elements of the wedding and is presented to all your guests. Sometimes my clients get overwhelmed with where to start with decor. Often they have many ideas they would like to incorporate but they are afraid it will look like it is all thrown together in a not so good way.
Here are some suggestions on how you can start to design your wedding decor:
1) Choose your wedding colors (main wedding color, secondary color, and accent color);
2) Decide the formality of the wedding (black tie, formal, informal, casual);
3) Think of the descriptive words you want your guests to use when they see your wedding (stunning, classic, fun, unique, out of the world cool);
4) Look through magazine, websites, pinterest for decor ideas you like;
5) Start putting the ideas together and be very strict with meeting your criteria of: wedding color, formality, and descriptive words.
It might take a couple of tries but building your wedding theme can be that easy.
When I initially met Carisa and Richard, they had some decor ideas they would like incorporated. Carisa said she wanted the colors: mint green and white; a rustic wedding; and peaches (the fruit). Richard threw in that he wanted some traditional Chinese elements too. In summary, they wanted to have a rustic mint green wedding with peaches (the fruit) and traditional Chinese elements. Not an easy task but I think we are going to pull it off. Can't give away too many details yet!

If you missed the first couple of blog posts on Carisa and Richard's wedding planning adventures, you can catch up on how they got engaged, set the date, found a venue, found a marriage commissioner, found a photographer, sent out invitations, took care of out of town guests, found a DJ, found a wedding gown, and found a wedding cake.
