To-be-Brides and Grooms are opting for new and creative ideas to celebrate their wedding in style. Weddings are getting more and more innovative and creative these days. Each one more stunning, beautiful and unique in its own way. From the venue (banquet hall or wedding lawn) to the theme to the decor, every little detail is given importance. Every couple would want this day to be as perfect as possible and to make it so, they personalize it as per their taste. This reflects more on the decor than anything else. The decor would be an aesthetic combination of theme, choice of color, location and setting.

Decorations set the mood for the function. The wedding venue decorations are best left to the professionals. Therefore selecting the right wedding venue organizer or wedding designer is essential. Contact your venue provider and request to have a look at their portfolio so you may have an idea of their style and perspective. Secondly, depending on the time and location of your wedding venue, plan your theme.

Pre- Wedding Functions

In case you are very keen on adding your personal touch to your event, you could easily arrange for part of the decor for your pre-wedding functions like Haldi and Mehndi in your preferred party venue. Have some images depicting your idea of how your venue should look like-to show your local florist/vendor. You can get him to arrange for props and pieces required to create a similar setup but with your added twist for personalisation. The younger ones in your family could be assigned the task of supervising the decoration. That way you are free to attend to little details of your attire and other things.

Mehndi and Sangeet

Mehndi and Sangeet celebrations call for more decorations that are festive. You could get your venue organizer or wedding designer to make innovative use of colourful traditional patterns, fabrics and furniture, and knick-knacks. Not to forget flowers. Flowers can be used in different ways like in vases, as curtains, in bunches, on walls or as hangings. You could also add an interesting centerpiece. It could be your favourite antique heirloom. Your stage could have an interesting backdrop - a projector screen with cherished pictures of you with your near and dear ones being played. Overheard at one such presentation -

One young lady to the other - Do you remember when we all stood under that waterfall. Anu (the bride) was so thrilled with the experience she did not want to leave the spot?

“Yes, college days were wonderful. But, see her today too. She is as thrilled as she was that day, to step into her new life.”

Wedding Venue and Decor

Options to decorate your wedding venue for the big day are countless. It all depends on your taste and preference. Plan well in advance with your wedding venue provider. Ever considered a garden theme in a wedding ground for your wedding? Or a fairy tale theme? The images below could give you an idea of some possibilities for outdoor weddings in wedding venues in Mumbai.

Like the Kings and Queens

Have a penchant for all things royal? Get married in style with the Royal theme. Have your attire and decor in sync with the theme. This would call for massive and intricate designs. Your wedding venue walls could take on the look of a palace with backdrops featuring relevant engravings and images. Lanterns, candles and flowers come into the picture again. Playing with this theme in the outdoors, one could use beautiful colourful tents with comfortable seating for guests. Floating candles and great music would add to the flavour of the day. Your venue provider would have to take good measures to disaster-proof the set. Things could go wrong anywhere but more so, on an outdoor set as it is exposed to nature. Like it happened at one such wedding that I attended; the wedding lawn was set for a grand vintage wedding. The bride and groom, their family and guests, were all decked up for the occasion. There was live music being played and selfies being taken with the royal backdrops. It was all ruined in seconds due to untimely rains. Thankfully, the lawns had a banquet hall attached to it and the venue provider made quick suitable arrangements. And the guests left with a quirky memory to remember. Therefore, damage control was great thanks to the venue provider’s snappy measures.

FUN Begins Here…

If you are the more fun loving and adventurous type, you could try the carnival or circus theme. This would call for a colour riot in your decor-clowns and glitter-all things colourful and joyous and exhilarating. 

Beauty in Simplicity 

Or would you rather prefer the modern look-read minimalistic sophisticated look? The play of fabrics, light and colour is essential to present the aesthetics in a balanced manner. A little too much of any element could change the mood of the setting. This is one decor you would want your wedding organiser to manage. Discuss with them exactly what you have in mind as these things cannot be left to chance at all. Every little detail has to be looked into minutely.

Pocket Friendly 

Decor should never be a problem for those on a budget. There are all sorts of venues and themes available to fit every budget. It is not necessary that the more expensive, the better. You can still have your wedding your way and make it as beautiful as you have dreamed of. No matter what the venue, you can play with the innumerable combination of lights and flowers to decorate your venue. Add some tulle in different colours to grace the beauty of the venue. Mini Balloons in tall glasses in the table setting, flower curtains with bells, candles and diya’s in beautiful formations all add to the charm of your event. You could find some ideas in the images below.

What About Your Ride?

Have a plan in mind for your home and wedding ride? Here is where you can let your creative self out. Order your supplies from your local vendor and get them to decorate your home and car as per your wishes. There are numerous ways to do up your home and car. But make sure the car is in a condition to do its job properly. This actually happened to someone I know. The previous night of the wedding, the family decorated the car with flowers, tulle and ribbons, just as the bride wanted it and asked the driver to park it carefully. The next day morning, they see that the car’s rear wheels are stuck deep in a ditch and they just could not retrieve the car in time. In a rush, another car was arranged and decor was redone. That was a close call. However, everything went off smoothly after that

Centre of Attraction

If your wedding venue is a banquet hall in Mumbai or such, then you could go in for themes-traditional or contemporary. Use of flowers (garlands, in cages and lanterns) and lights (chandeliers, candles and lamps) play an important role. In the current day centrepieces created out of flowers or ice-animal shapes are quite in vogue. Foodies might even try centrepieces designed out of edible things!

         Wedding decor ideas are countless. These were only a glimpse of the myriad possibilities. Choosing the right wedding venue is very important since the day is of utmost importance and when every little detail is planned to perfection, it is sure to leave you with gorgeous images of that special day for the rest of your life.
