 BROWSE THROUGH OUR WEDDING SUPPLIES!

 

Theme weddings have grown in popularity. They allow the couple a chance to express their personalities and to show their creative side. If you love romance, then this theme will be one which you'll want to consider.

Each table will reflect intimacy while covered in lace. Rose or flower petals are scattered casually across each, and their scent will continue the theme. You have many options for centerpieces, but here are a few that easily lend to the theme. The first is comprised of a lace covered pillar candle which is then flanked by two champagne flutes with a floating flower in each. If you place these centerpieces on a mirror, you will also have the light of the candles softly reflected.

One of my favorite ideas is combining white Christmas lights and tulle. If you decide on this, be sure to use "cool-to-the-touch" lights so that there is no possibility of a fire hazard. You can wrap the cord in satin ribbon if you wish to hide the green, and then wrap tulle in between the lights. Or if you prefer, you could make swags out of the tulle, and then string the lights in order reflect the shape of the swags. The combination of tulle and white lights is truly beautiful and very romantic.

Another option for centerpieces would be a huge bowl piled high with fresh red strawberries. You could surround the bowl with heart-shaped containers or champagne glass favor holders filled with chocolate dipping sauce. Yet another idea would be to buy flowering plants. Each plant could be showcased in a basket which is decorated with bits of lace, tulle or satin ribbon.

If you decide to forego the idea of scattered flowers or rose petals, but still would like to add ambience with scent, you can opt to add Heart shaped boxes or bowls filled with potpourri instead. Vanilla scented potpourri would be a wonderful choice as there are very few people who dislike this scent. Heart shaped candle holders and vanilla scented candles could also be scattered, a few on each table.

A few things that will add to your romantic theme are: candles, flowers, lace, tulle, lights, and scent. This theme is easier to execute for a small and intimate gathering in the evening, and is perfect for an adult only reception. However, you could also use elements of these ideas for a larger gathering or one that occurs in the daytime.
