GONE IS THE flashy theme for theme's
sake, instead, smart, subtle themes are becoming key to creating a elegant and sophisticated
wedding & reception.
The key to pulling off a coordinated
event: Evoke your theme throughout the affair. Whether that
theme is as general as a season or a feeling, or as specific as
a special flower, it should be the subtle thread that ties
everything together. Your location, invitations, flowers, menu,
cake, and favors should all cleverly reflect one common concept.
Then, get as creative as you can!
Location: Your
wedding could take place anywhere. A traditional ceremony in a church
or a non-traditional ceremony in a park or even under the goal post in
a football stadium. The reception can be in a ballroom, club house or
your local sports pub.
Attire:
Bride wearing a lovely wedding gown
and carrying a elegant and sophisticated hand-tied bouquet consisting of a large dome of beautiful Champagne roses
that appear to float on a fountain of variegated ivy and trailing a long beautiful cascade of variegated ivy.
Bridesmaids dressed as the
homecoming court with tiaras
and nosegay bouquets (round bouquets that are made of densely packed flowers, greenery, and sometimes herbs that are tied together).
Jr. Bridesmaids and Flower girl

carrying pom
poms or Pomanders Bouquets ( a ball covered with blooms and
suspended from a ribbon).
Groom & Groomsmen

design neckties.
Invitations:
Use a traditional
invitation or if you want the invitation to reflect your football
theme, you could use photo invitations with a picture of the bride and groom
