Posted by IwedPlanner on January 12th, 2015

Are you thinking of a theme for your wedding and wondering how to make your décor match that theme? Whether you are going for a vintage or a low-key, homespun vibe, there are so many options. You don’t have to spend a bundle to get the appearance you want. It’s easy to tie in your wedding theme on your stationery, centerpiece vases, lighting design, or even just your tablecloths.

Formal Wedding Theme

A classic formal wedding reception need not be expensive to decorate. Stick to Art Deco black-and-white pieces to keep things simple and elegant. Scour vintage shops for mirrored vases. Don’t have a big budget for flowers? Simple white flowers will do the trick. You can also make an otherwise casual reception venue a little dressier by covering the tables with while linen cloth, which you can purchase on the cheap from fabric stores.As a finishing touch, go for architectural-inspired invitations and ask the wedding guests to wear just one color. You have instantly got yourself an elegant formal wedding!

Vintage Wedding Theme

If you want to go for a nostalgic vintage feel, then your décor should capture the laid back elegance of a bygone era. Think Tuscany or the French wine country.For vintage weddings, lace is an absolute must. Find a vintage inspired wedding gown with a modern detail to keep things fresh. For your bridal party, choose soft and muted color palettes with slate gray, ivory, gold, and rose.

Wedding decoration on vintage wedding receptions is also easy to put together. Try hanging an unusually-shaped chandelier from the trellis. Add some billowy fabrics to create faux canopies. Mix wood chairs with chairs covered infloral fabrics. For that added touch, put French baguettes and cheese on each table and use vintagebottles to hold fresh lemonade so your guests can nibble on something while they wait for the main course.

Rustic Chic Theme

If you are interested in a rustic chic wedding theme, the key is the location. Choose a nice garden, a country home, or a vineyard that showcases a beautiful natural landscape. Your décor should use wood in modern ways. For that relaxed chic vibe, incorporate items that look like they came from your own garden or home.For example, use an aisle runner made from reclaimed wood. Go for wild flowers that seem to have been plucked from your garden. Make your bridesmaids wear long chiffon dresses in neutral colors. Need a cocktail table? Use a wine barrel!
