An Indian wedding is known for its great pomp and show, but apart from its extravagance it is also a harmonious mélange of elaborate rituals and traditions. The celebrations can be distinguished on a scale as large as any other festival and they usually span for over a week. In fact, they require a month of planning in almost all families.
The moment you start thinking about it, you are flooded with decisions that need to be made including the guest size, location, food menu, and others. The good and bad news is that your choices are endless; hence selecting a mood can help couples to stay focused on their efforts. Try out these to see which one feels right to you.
Homespun
This one would be totally lacking in pretensions. Ideally it is best set in the family backyard or if you want to add an extra oomph, in a local farm. For more expensive options, consider renting any lakeside estate with guest cottages where all the invitees could spend their weekends. It would be heavenly. The wedding colors that suit this mood particularly are sage green, peach, or ivory. Fresh hydrangeas with buffet style dinner with sweet notes in guitar would mark a perfect setting.
Something chic
Hotels and clubs are bourgeoning day by day to cater to all the vendor services and requirements of a wedding. Host your wedding reception in such a hotel or club. Perfect chic style weddings work best when kept meal centric, small, and formal.
Bottles of Pinot Noir for the guests with decorations in rich jewel tones of gold with bronze accents, and orchids adorning the table centerpieces, isn’t that truly elegant? How about some jazz for the crowd? Truly, out of this world.
Care for some romance?
Personalize your special day with clever details set amidst a luxurious botanical garden landscape. Brides and grooms who would like to bring more romance and make their weddings seem heavenly can have peacocks on the grounds and swans in fountains. Make a perfect impression by carving initials of your name in flowers over the entrance doors leading to the ceremony. Colors like butter yellow, ballet pink, and celery green are the most appropriate hues to achieve this mood.
Cool and simply sensational
This wedding mood shall create a style that won’t seem anything like a wedding. Night club or a sleek hotel bar would be the ideal place to host such a kind of ceremony. For your sari, try to wear something chic, clingy, and edgy, which is totally one-of –a –kind. You can create the centerpiece items with pillar candleholders wrapped in funky colored papers and filled with tea lights. Make arrangements for the hottest DJ in town, and everybody will sure have a blast.
