If I had a wedding planner, I imagine that is one of the first questions she would ask me. However, because I don't have one, I ask myself. Several times a week, because it's hard to put my finger on it. Right now, I'd love for it to look like this:
Great! Except that's someone's dresser, not an event space, Genius! These days, there's a lot of that running through my head. I know what I don't want: I don't want our reception hall to look like a "reception hall", I don't want the wedding to look canned or like The Knot threw up all over the room, and I don't want it to look like I climbed on the bandwagon of every trend out there just so I could look like I spent a lot of money or did a lot of projects "just because".
What I'd like is clean and modern, with a touch of vintage and nature. I want the soft glow of candlelight, and the interplay of our colors against the backdrop of nature provided by our reception hall's awesome view:
The problem is that it's all running around in my head, all non-descript and abstract-y. This didn't really bother me before, as the wedding was a distant future event. However, we're rapidly approaching the 7 month mark, and, according to traditional wisdom, that means I should sort of start nailing things down.
So, how did you envision your wedding and how has that changed over time? More importantly, how did you keep it from looking like a dresser?
