How’s that Wedding Planning coming along
Lover? Have you nailed down a Wedding Style
yet?
If your answer is no or a non-committal “Um
kinda, I have some ideas…” I totally hear you.
Deciding on a wedding style is SO HARD.
There is so much to choose from, so many
different ideas and elements to include and
consider and so many amazing weddings and
vendors that conflicting thoughts and ideas
make selecting one cohesive wedding style
challenging.
I have found that as a Wedding Stylist, the
pressure has become slightly overwhelming in
recent weeks, the Wedding Stylist is expected
to have something extra special right?
Thinking on this though, I think this is a
pressure most couples place on themselves
when wedding planning. The pressure to make
it perfect and timeless but still on trend as
possible without being so on trend you will
regret your choices in a matter of years. Of
course, you have to get it right when you do
choose because you only get one shot! All these
ideas and expectations can swirl around in
your head and on your Pinterest board and
keep you up at night.
Personally, choosing my venue has helped
with refining my style direction more than
anything in my planning process so far. Once I
had a space to work with I found a lot of the
noise started to drop away and the style of
wedding that I wanted became clearer.
I found this little trick helpful when
considering what to proceed with when it
came to stationery, decor and florals: I chose
three descriptive words or phrases to describe
my ideal wedding, wedding style or vibe and I
revisit them whenever considering a styling
element. For my wedding, these are ‘strippedback’, ‘chic’ & ‘vintage Italian’. Using these
words, I refined my mood board and Pinterest
board and have continued to build upon those
three pillars.
When in doubt, I consulted with my very
talented
and
experienced
colleagues.
Sometimes an outside opinion of someone
with clean eyes, you trust is the best thing to
help you refine that direction.
