Valentine Wedding Theme – Every Lovers Dream
Valentine’s Day is perfect for a wedding as it is a romantic holiday that expresses love and commitment. Valentine themed weddings can in fact rekindle love between the guests as well if you choose to plan an intimate marriage reception full of long stem roses, heart shaped chocolates, love songs and red candles. There are numerous ideas to accomplish a Valentine wedding theme.
Color
Red, baby pink, lavender and purple are most common colors for the day meant to celebrate love. Ensure you incorporate these colours into your Big Day by choosing them for your attire and decor. What about pink bridesmaid dresses, scarlet maid of honor dress, and watermelon ties for the groomsmen? Doesn’t it sound perfect?
Invite
Heart shaped wedding invitation and the lovely Cupid wedding invitation comes up as a top choice, but if you want to give them a skip then go for a scroll wedding invitation in red with golden barns and tinsels.
Lighting
Lighting is crucial when it comes to celebrating this union of hearts. There should be sufficient light to see everything but you must keep it subtle to maintain the passionate feel and mood. Can one imagine a Valentine wedding theme without candlelight? Let the marriage hall be immersed in candlelight. You can place small cute pink and red votive candles all around the reception venue to provide soft lighting. Or you can place heart-shaped floating candles in big cylinder vase centerpieces. There are a variety of red, pink and purple coloured heart shaped Chinese lanterns available online. These will make the wedding reception hall pretty whimsical and fill the place with a sort of mystic beauty.
Flowers
Well, one cannot celebrate love without flowers. Of course, red roses are the key flowers connected to the Lovers Day and you can find myriad of ways to include a rose theme throughout the occasion. The bride shall carry red roses in a bridal bouquet and the bridesmaids can carry matching smaller rose bouquets.Â
Not the rose season? You need not panic. There are many other flowers representing the day. Carnations, orchids, chrysanthemums, hydrangea and lilies can be used instead. The bride can carry an armful of lilies with a pink ribbon along with Swarovski crystals wrapped beautifully around the bouquet handle.
Decorations and accessories:
Beautify the aisle with red, pink and other romantic colored rose petals. You can use jewels for decorations. Beads that are jewel toned hanging from light figures all around the reception venue will provide a great effect due to the reflection of light off of the jewels. Use white chair covers with a big red or pink bow or sash with a red rose stuck on the back of the chairs.
The stage can be set with an archway of red or pink fabric and using wedding flowers like roses, carnations or chrysanthemums. Why not decorate the buffet table with a large cupid ice sculpture? That should be an amazing idea. Floor length satin linens in various hues of red, pink, coral or purple accented with lace add grace to the occasion.
Heart shaped cookies and chocolates wrapped in a heart shaped red gift box will make ideal wedding favor for this theme. What’s more, beautiful romantic music played in the background will certainly make the occasion really more romantic and dreamy!
