Planning Your Princess Theme Wedding
Many little girls grow up dreaming of the day they get to plan
their own princess theme wedding. It starts with the stories of
Cinderella and continues through a girl’s teenage years.
Luckily, it is easy to plan a wedding incorporating the basic
ideas of how a princess would marry her prince charming.
Location is important in choosing a princess theme wedding. If
you are lucky enough to live near a castle that can be rented
out for these occasions you can easily move to the decorating
phase of your wedding. Those brides that don’t live near a
castle can use decorations to bring the atmosphere of a castle
to your reception.

theme wedding decorations we recommend

The bride can start out getting married at an old stone church
if she wants photographs at a castle-like location. Otherwise,
she will have to rely on decorators and designers to achieve the
right mood. Find a location with a grand ballroom with
chandeliers that can be decorated to the hilt.
When decorating your reception tables think of your guests as
royalty. Use large opulent bouquets and use large pillar
candles. Crystal looks especially beautiful for these occasions
and there are many styles to choose from. Beautiful linen
tablecloths and napkins, especially lace ones, are appropriate
for a princess theme wedding. They can be rented easily from
many wedding vendors or party rental businesses. The chairs can
also be draped with special-made chair covers or you may make
your own of tulle fabric and silk flowers.
The bride will have the most fun choosing her wedding gown.
There are so many to choose from for your princess theme
wedding. It may be easiest to start browsing the current wedding
magazines to help you pick out a few of your favorites before
proceeding to the stores to begin trying them on. This is the
most exhaustive element of planning your wedding so be sure to
take your time and choose carefully.
Don’t feel that you have to pick your dress the first time you
go to the store. If you simply cannot find the dress of your
dreams, consider hiring someone to make your dress. This way you
can choose your fabric and trims as well as picking out your
pattern. There are quite a few patterns to choose from when
choosing a dress for your princess theme wedding, including
medieval princess gowns.
One of the final elements of the princess theme wedding that the
bride will choose is the type of favors she will give to her
guests and wedding party. Choices include simple boxes wrapped
with velvet ribbon, small porcelain boxes in various shapes,
drawstring bags made of satin or a fabric that shimmers, a set
of tapered candles or anything else that strikes your fancy in
keeping with the princess theme wedding.
The last thing you should plan is a horse drawn carriage to
whisk you away from your princess theme wedding. It can be as
elaborate as the one drawn for Cinderella or an open carriage
for you and your prince charming. This will make for some
fabulous photographs of your special day.
