Wedding Theme Schizophrenia

Please Excuse the third word in that heading..if you have a better word for it..please tell me so I can change.

Does anyone else go back and forth with themes or colors. I feel like I am the worst at this!!! At first I thought...hmmmm...I'm going to do all neutral..or very champagne,mocha...neutral colors...to match my neutral tivoli room. As on of the brides on here once said...a very italian romanesque theme.

I have always loved the tropical look...so recently i've been thinking..hmm....Bright Pink with orchids and lillies will be beautiful...However..I don't think orchids wil go to well against a Russos backdrop. Someone please help me, diagnose me....I feel like everyone has there colors and themes and don't go back. Why am I always unsure?!?!?

Want my input? Stick to your original vision and keep everything neutral to match your room. When you look at your pics in 20-30-40 years, those colors will still be neutral, and they'll still match the room.

Got me?

Re: Wedding Theme Schizophrenia

You are going back and forth because we are on here all day and find other things that catch our eye. You have to make a decision and stand firm, unless we will be like this until the wedding day.

Re: Wedding Theme Schizophrenia

I have a crazy idea - why dont you stick to the neutral theme - but add colors here and there - like have a neutral BM dress - and then add like a pink sash to the dresses - use those white casablanca lilies - but add the same pink as the dresses on the ribbon of the bo-k... it will match your theme - with just a bit of color! and it will wont be fighting with yourself so much ...

Good Luck Nina!

Re: Wedding Theme Schizophrenia

I think it is totally normal to back and forth with ideas, b/c you just want everything to match perfect and look perfect

Nina,

O-m-G, I'm going through the same thing!! Excat same colors too, so weird, I love the neutrals for the romantic feel, I the tropics, for the alluring romance feel, I kinda feel like w/ a wedding ceremony & small reception in the tropics & the reception at Brindisi when we return, we'll get the best of both worlds....

Re: Wedding Theme Schizophrenia

Nina I agree with everyone else... Stick with your original idea. No reason to second guess yourself either! It will look classy and fabulous and can compliment both sides of the family (european and hispanic)

Just to add though- i love both ideas!!!!



This is where waiting til 07 kinda messes things up!!!

Re: Wedding Theme Schizophrenia

I understand where your coming from, FH says I am driving him crazy, every day I have "The Best Idea"! You might want to think about doing nuetral dresses, with a splash of color in the flowers, to kind of embrace both things! I was thinking about champagne dresses with those creamy roses with the pink or orangy tips for a while.

That's kind of what I am doing. My main color is chocolate brown and I am using blush pinks and cremes as highlights. I can FM pics of stuff as I finish it. Or I have pics on the '06 boards.

Re: Wedding Theme Schizophrenia

oh yea I go back and forth. Now that we changed the date I am thinking red instead of pink. The girls will probably kill me too when I tell them the dresses are going to be completely different from what we were originally going for.

Re: Wedding Theme Schizophrenia

I'm not sure either, love the sophistication of Champage, & choclate & Mocha, but I love the pop of Apple green, & I really like the FG dresses w/ the rose petals in the tulle skirt, but I'd want them in pink....

The more I see the more I change my mind ::
