"GET TO KNOW US" EMPLOYEE CORNER featuring Tiffany Sands
"Themed Weddings...Ummm...No Thanks"
Once upon a time, a boy and a girl fell in love. They got engaged and began to plan the most important day in their relationship. They (meaning the bride and the "agree whith whatever she says" groom) began to research in magazines, catalogs and at expos. Suddenly the bride has a revelation. "Wouldn't a themed wedding be cute? It would make our wedding stand out. People would remember it for the rest of their lives." Thus begins the biggest regret of their wedded bliss.
I had a very similar experience to the one described above. After my engagement I saw an article of a cowboy and cowgirl themed wedding. I thought it was so cute! The guests sat on hay bales, the bride wore a white cowgirl hat with a veil attached, and the centerpieces were little picket fences with flowers. So despite the fact that my fiance and myself were far from country material (I've been on a horse a total of three times in my life), I decided this is what we were going to do. At first, I was going to book our reception at a barn. Surprisingly enough, barns are expensive. There was no way we could afford to have our reception in a country themed location. So we booked a hall at a youth activity center (it really looked more like a cafeteria at a school, but it was all we could afford). The smart thing to do would have been to abandon the idea of a themed wedding after the location of choice was not an option. Instead, we purchased a few hay bales, made our centerpieces out of twine, popsicle sticks, and flowers and purchased boots and cowboy/cowgirl hats. We selected a Keith Urban country song to be our first dance and learned a two step to go with it. We even made popcorn for the guests to eat out of little decorated brown paper bags. Lastly, our wedding invitation was the corniest of it all:
True Love Lassoed Our Hearts
And the Trail Has Led Us Here
(Insert regretful sigh <here>) After it was all said and done I didn't regret the theme until six months later. We went to another wedding. It was simple and elegant. They stuck to the basics of flowers, white table cloths, and slow dancing. Instead of the guests walking away remembering only the "interesting" theme, people actually remembered how happy the couple were and the exciting events that transpired that evening. So my advice.... NEVER (and I mean NEVER) agree to a themed wedding/reception. You may end up with something that looks more like a 5th grade rendition of Oklahoma! instead of your dream wedding.
