Nobody wants to be stereotyped, but we all have our own personal style which can help to determine the overall feel and look of your wedding. Deciding what yours is may help with planning your wedding and focusing on what type of wedding fits you best. Choosing a theme and sticking with it will ensure your table decorations, invitations, wedding dress and even the menu will all fit together, matching your vision of your perfect day!

Classic…
Your style exudes quality, distinction and class. Your fashion sense is tasteful and traditional – timeless. Your invitations are simple and something anyone would be happy to display. Your dress is elegant and understated with lace sleeves and a vintage feel. Your menu choices are simply divine with classic choices that please finer pallets. Your room décor is ornate with perhaps a French twist, very delicate and on the traditional side: creams and pastels will be the majority of your colour scheme. A pianist can be heard in the background, filling your guest’s ears with beautiful music. Your photos will never age, the beauty of your day will resonate in the years to come.

Romantic…
You’ve spent a life time dreaming of finding your Mr. Right – Prince Charming. You’ve planned your wedding since you were a little girl and now that you’ve found your perfect match, you want the fairy tale ceremony fit for the Princess you truly are. The aisle is trickled with rose petals and the lights are dimmed for an intimate feel. Your wedding dress may have floral applique and a sweetheart neckline. The room décor you choose will be full of tea lights, flowers, drapes with stunning wedding cake as a centrepiece.

Rustic…
You may be a Country girl, a little bit of a wild child or somewhat Zen. Either way, your look is earthy, pretty and refined. A collage of cultures, your style is definitely uniquely yours. Your wedding will mainly be held outdoors, with drinks in mason jars and a hearty hog roast to feed your guests. A band will be playing to entertain your friends and families whilst you mingle. Your dress might be just below the knees for a more informal and quirky style. The cake you choose will be nude or one made of cheese, a fantastic conversation piece that also tastes amazing. Your décor will be full of wood: tree stumps, fairy lights around branches and beautiful decorations hanging from trees.

Modern…
Clean lines with a modern twist is what best describes you. Slightly unconventional and always fashion forward, you set the trends. Your wedding décor will be clean and bold, focussing on the placement of the ceremony and wedding breakfast room so that it is “Instagrammable”. You will create hashtags for your guests to use on all social media platforms, getting your wedding out there to the masses. The menu you choose may be based on nouvelle cuisine, with your cake being a statement piece that wows your guests. The dress you choose will be non-traditional and a little daring, just like you.

Here at Lodore Falls Hotel, we have had so many weddings that have all linked into the above styles as well as more quirky ideas. We are willing and capable to have our hotel suited to your tastes and décor, and would love to plan your day alongside you.
