Cinderella weddings are the most popular and romantic of the fairytale theme ceremonies today. It is the unlikely story of how a girl that was made a servant by her stepmother became the bell of a magical ball that helped her find her prince and live happily ever after. For generations this story has helped entertain and inspire little girls and helped shape their dreams of romance for when they became young women. So it is natural that this story would become a popular wedding theme. The key to making your Cinderella wedding a personal success is to mix in element s of the story in a way that is unique to who you are and how you envision the ceremony. This can be a bit tricky, but here are some tips and suggestions to help you plan your Cinderella wedding.
Think about the venue where you are having the ceremony. The best place to start is to think about decorating the hall in period style. The tale of Cinderella was originally French. If you do research on the story you know that it is commonly set in the 1700s. In this case you would use the period style of the French as a guide in what decorations you use. Also when decorating the hall makes sure you use important motifs from the story such as pumpkins, glass slippers, and mice. Use these two ideas in combination for an extraordinary effect that will astound your guests. Just make sure you look for affordable alternatives for whatever you can‘t find to fit your budget. Also make use of subtlety to avoid making the hall look gaudy or tacky.
When choosing the clothing for your bridesmaids you can go with nice modern dresses that are a nod to the theme, or go with period costumes. Either way think about your bridesmaids' body figures and coloring to dress them in clothes that looks best on them. Just because you don't want them to outshine you on your special day doesn't mean that you can't help them look great.
In helping your groom organize the groomsmen clothing the same logic applies. Whether it is normal tuxedoes or period costume make sure that they are tasteful and keep with the color scheme you choose. Make sure that everyone can find the same style and get something that fits. Look for a look that everyone will be happy to wear. This will make the look of your bridal party a success overall
Last but not least are your flower girl and your ring bearer. In the case of the flower girl a nice dress that matches your color selection is a great choice. In this case dress her in the traditional accessories of a floral wreath and a flower basket. You can also enhance her costume with silver or gold jewellery to commemorate the event. Not only will this be a great thank you gift for her participation, it will help pull her costume together. In the case of the ring bearer you can go with a traditional tuxedo or use a cute page's costume. Make sure that he is comfortable in whatever he wears. This will prevent any unnecessary fidgeting that will distract him from his task. As for the ring pillow there are several online stores that can give a selection that will perfectly match your theme.
