Planning Your Cinderella Theme Wedding
What little girl doesn’t dream of growing up and marrying her
prince charming? Modern brides are no different from their
mothers. They all want the fairytale, and why shouldn’t she have
it? Planning Cinderella themed weddings is simple so that even
those of us without wedding planners can pull it off.
Choose your location before you order your invitations. Many
times your dream location requires booking in advance, sometimes
even a year or so. This may determine the wedding date of
Cinderella themed weddings.

Popular choices of location include ballrooms, large estates and
castles if you can find one. Sometimes an old stone church can
double as the wedding and reception location; check with them if
you can’t find a castle in your area.
Once you have established your wedding date you can choose your
invitations. These can be as varied as the bride herself. Unique
designs for Cinderella themed weddings include the scroll, boxed
invitations with elaborate ribbons and designs that include
gemstones or elaborate laser cutouts. Let your imagination guide
you, as nothing is too good for royalty.
Cinderella themed weddings require a very special wedding gown.
If you can’t remember what elements you want in your dress watch
the movie Cinderella or get a copy of Princess Diana’s wedding.
Think puffy sleeves, elaborate trims and ribbon, a large skirt
and if you can’t find glass slippers there are certainly many
designs out there that are made of comfortable plastics that can
look just like them.
Your bridesmaids should have royal looking dresses as well.
Choose dresses that match the ribbons on your dress, possibly
pink, peach, rose, lavender or pastel blue. If your wedding is
in the evening you could use darker colors. Cinderella themed
weddings require the prince to be dressed beautifully as well.
Be sure to help him choose a tuxedo that matches the style of
your gown. If you want to go all out, rent a prince costume for
your groom!
Cinderella themed weddings also require certain decorations at
the reception. Think ballroom with chandeliers, lots of flowers
on the tables, swags of flowers and mini lights on the head
table, a decorated archway for your beautiful photographs and
table settings of crystal and china with gold or silver accents.
Your cake should have decorations befitting Cinderella. No
matter what the size of your cake, choose pastel roses, gold or
silver accents, lots of piped swags and beautiful cutlery to
help you cut your first slice.
The bride will also need to choose special favors for her guests
and wedding party. They can be as elaborate or simply elegant as
she chooses. Ideas for these favors include porcelain boxes,
velvet bags, pairs of elegant taper candles wrapped with velvet
ribbon, crystal boxes or anything else that you can think of or
create. Many of these items can be found at your local craft
store.
The final choice the bride should make is her exit from her
ball. Brides have chosen a horse pulled carriage, a balloon ride
or an antique car to whisk them away to their honeymoon after
their Cinderella themed weddings. Any of these ideas will
provide photos that you’ll remember for years to come.
