I wouldn’t say that I’m an advocate of picking a huge “theme” for your wedding – doing and overdoing by sticking it in your guests faces for 10 months and a day. Kwim?
It’s more typical, when I plan a wedding, that I get a strong sense for what the Bride and Groom wants, and together, we mature those special “desires”. From that planning – a small “theme” emerges that we can play on -elegantly – without abrasion and overdoing.
However, with such a wedding I’m proposing – one that is very short, sweet and simple, I think an established “theme” would not only be important, but imperative. I think that everything must be cohesive – from the dress, to the venue, to everything . A well developed and executed theme will be fun to plan and create an added interest on the part of your guests. You must choose your theme wisely. Choose a theme that’s easy to pull off in the space that you have – without much of an extra added investment.
So, what would I propose for the $5,000.00 wedding we are planning in the Art Center?
An art infused cocktail party. This is what it would look like…
Use a monotone background and create interest with bright colors in your bridesmaids dresses, garnishes and ribbons. For our 45 minute cocktail hour, 6-8 pieces/person will do. Offer Perrier and still water, with fresh fruit garnishes as a beverage.
Finish the evening off with simple cake and mingling.
Happy planning

I love all these ideas, especially like the different color bridesmaid dresses, and like the hat and that beautiful dress that one bride has on.
