Some additional Party Ideas
that you can use for planning your Event
1) Select a Hip Color Palette
Traditionally, royal blue and gold have
been classic wedding colors for a Cinderella-inspired
theme, however, you can also select a chic
color palette with a sophisticated feel such
as purple and brown, olive green and fuchsia,
ivory and pink, or white and silver. You can
also infuse a bold hue into your color palette
to add an exciting touch. For instance, if
you have a white and silver color combination,
try incorporating a dash of purple or red.
2) Try Incorporating Unconventional
Elements into the Event
Using unusual yet interesting elements is
a great way to add dimension to the decor.
Style your wedding with elements in glass
or lucite, porcelain, silver accents, and
soft embellishments to balance everything
out. As an example, you can use jeweled
votive holders as a table accent set atop
an all-glass table for a modern effect. Candles
also add a magical touch to the table decor,
so don't be afraid to use several of them
as a way of creating a spectacular tablescape.
Another option is to use colorful fabrics
such as purple silk shantung - this kind of
fabric is rich and elegant, which allows you
to go easy on the table decor, since the fabric
is filled with texture.
3) Use Special Touches that Add Meaning
to the Ceremony
Carry the theme of your event throughout
your ceremony by using a storybook-inspired
ring pillow to hold your wedding rings
- a wonderful way to add a whimsical element.
You can also have your wedding vows read from
an elaborate scroll set in calligraphy. Another
idea is to have your wedding venue set in
a European castle - a romantic and luxurious
way for crafting a Cinderella-inspired dream
wedding.
4) Add an Extra Special Touch to
the Table with Little Gifts for Guests
Since winter tends to be the most popular
season for this theme, you can take the opportunity
to make it extra special by giving guests
what has come to be called a "gift favor"
- this is a favor that is presented in the
fashion of a thoughtful gift. This is particularly
ideal when the wedding coincides with Christmas.
Some examples include a pretty
wrapped candle, a keepsake
box in the shape of an egg, a personalized
message tucked into a picture
frame.
