To begin with, each event detail will requires extra thought. For example, if you promise guests an elaborate \u2018Arabian Nights\u2019 theme, then you\u2019re going to have to start thinking about how that will translate through invitations, d\u00e9cor, food, and more. A theme may limit your planning options. <\/p>\n<p>Ask your clients if they will still think their wedding pictures are cute 5 or 10 year from now. A super trendy theme may look really dated in the not-too-distant future. Who knows, they may even be sick of the theme by the time they get to the wedding day! <\/p>\n<p>Also keep in guests in mind! Your clients may be able to pull off an enforced dress code for close friends and family at a smaller, more intimate wedding\u2014but the big crowd of guests at a larger wedding may find a stringently enforced theme less charming and more of a turn-off.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%A6_and_the_upsides\"><\/span>\u2026 and the upsides!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div style=\"overflow: auto;\">\n<div class=\"half-1\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"323\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Smarties-Cake.jpg\" alt=\"Themed Wedding Smarties Cake\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Smarties-Cake.jpg 323w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Smarties-Cake-205x300.jpg 205w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 323px) 100vw, 323px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"half-2\">\n<p>On the flipside, guests may find a themed wedding a refreshing change to conventional nuptials. And a couple who has been looking forward to planning their theme will have a fabulous personalized wedding! With proper execution, a theme will have guests captivated on the wedding day and leave them talking for years to come. <\/p>\n<p>A themed wedding that reflects the personality of your couple will allow them to be themselves. This authenticity will certainly come across in some gorgeous wedding photos. Plus, a well-orchestrated theme will have guests feeling welcome as part of the celebration.Think of a themed wedding as a platform to highlight your creativity. It\u2019s the perfect opportunity to expand your <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/2016\/05\/creating-wow-wedding-portfolio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">portfolio<\/a> for more niche events!\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Coming up with suitable d\u00e9cor and coordinating the actual theme is a terrific way to challenge your event planning abilities and force yourself to think out-of-the-box. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_make_a_themed_wedding_work\"><\/span>How to make a themed wedding work<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>On a scale of eccentricity, just how kooky are your guests? Determining just how far to go with a concept is the first step to planning a themed wedding. <\/p>\n<p>Oftentimes budget will determine the extent of a theme. Implementing a few well-thought-out touches will be much more appealing than throwing together too many cheap d\u00e9cor options. Remember, something may seem tacky in your professional opinion, but with the right eye even a \u2018Christmas in July\u2019 theme can look sharp!  <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Happy_medium\"><\/span>Happy medium<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"445\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Themed-Weddings-Photo-op.jpg\" alt=\"Themed Wedding Kooky Couple\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Themed-Weddings-Photo-op.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Themed-Weddings-Photo-op-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Why do your clients want a themed wedding?

If your clients are just super romantics who want to declare their love in the most unique way possible, you may be able to implement a wedding theme in the details alone. Think about how you can adapt a theme in the following areas: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Color Scheme<\/b>: A subtle color scheme can unify a theme without overwhelming.<\/li>\n<li><b>D\u00e9cor<\/b>: Are subtle striped tablecloths enough for your clients\u2019 nautical theme, or do they want miniature model ships as centerpieces? <\/li>\n<li><b>Invitations<\/b>: Let your clients\u2019 guests get a sense of how over-the-top a themed wedding will be right from the start.<\/li>\n<li><b>Favors<\/b>: Help the guests remember the unique theme long after the wedding is over.<\/li>\n<li><b>Music<\/b>: Adapt a classic rock \u2018n\u2019 roll theme by playing vintage tunes all evening.<\/li>\n<li><b>Menu<\/b>: A little wordplay can turn ordinary dishes into entertaining innovations.<\/li>\n<li><b>Flowers<\/b>: Coordinate with color scheme or consider new ways to display arrangements.<\/li>\n<li><b>Staged photoshoot<\/b>: Let a photographer preserve the theme for posterity with clever props.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Going_all_the_way\"><\/span>Going all the way<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Themed-Wedding-Nautical.jpg\" alt=\"Themed Wedding Nautical Decor\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10236\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Themed-Wedding-Nautical.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Themed-Wedding-Nautical-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That being said, a full-on theme can still steal the show.
