Can you believe it?? It's almost December, and Thanksgiving is upon us. I'm so looking forward to this week's festivities - time spent with loved ones, great food, and being so very thankful for all the good things in my life.
I'm also gearing up for December weddings, and the onslaught of Christmas decorations. While I love both, sometimes the two mix well together and other times...well, not so much! When thinking about your colors and theme for your wedding celebration, don't forget that the venue(s) you have selected may already have their own plans for Christmas decorations. To avoid any unexpected surprises, be sure to ask about this while visiting, and before booking with them.
Ask to see photos of the place all decked out in last year's Christmas glory, and whether or not the same look or actual decorations will be used again during your wedding month. The venue may allow movement or temporary removal of certain decorations, but be sure you know the specifics. If your colors are winter blue and silver, you may not be very happy with the venue's choice of artificial pine garland covered with bright red and gold ornaments. But, if they have chosen silver as the primary color, this may work nicely with your vision.
Being sure to consider this in advance can save you a great deal of heartache and last minute adjustments. Life is already pretty busy for most of us, and with the additional craziness of the holidays, make sure your event is well thought out.
Happy Thanksgiving!
