How do I choose my wedding colors?
Traditionalists wear white wedding dresses. Asians choose red and gold for good luck.
I meant wedding themes and decorations.
Pick neutral creams and white to match your dress. Or go harvest colors with red, gold
and bronze if you want an Asian wedding.
We’re doing traditional, Western style.
You don’t have to put more effort into decorating your wedding as you would a new house. In
fact, going light on the wedding saves you money you could use for a down payment.
This is my one true day.
You do have a groom. What does he think?
As long as I’m happy, he’s happy.
Use paper lanterns in your desired colors and table cloths in those colors for the color
scheme instead of massive floral displays, balloon sculptures or curtained backdrops.
You make it sound like I’m decorating for a prom instead of a wedding.
Just don’t spend so much money you go deeper into debt or even take out a wedding loan.
You risk driving him away for fear of spending irrational amounts of money.
You’re right. I already did that test once with the engagement ring.
You can choose wedding colors simply by picking a venue already decorated the way you want.
Then add touches of color with lamps, flowers or carpets to add a temporary personal flare.
Do I need separate color schemes for the reception and the wedding?
Save money by having the reception at the same place as the wedding. And a lot less
commuting for guests.
There’s still the matter of choosing bridesmaid dresses.
Could you be kind and request that they wear dresses of a neutral color like the classic
black party dress, instead of buying a dress just for your wedding?
Do you know how few party dresses are suitable for a wedding?
Winnow down the bridesmaid list and help them find something in their closet that is appropriate.
I’ve heard about how you need to pick the wedding cake’s color to match the wedding
theme.
How about the traditional white cake? It goes with everything, including your dress.
