Many times, people talk about what colors they want to use for their wedding. The theme should be something that the colors can be incorporated in to. Try to find a theme that you can really use to bring both of you together. It can even be something like an era in time that both of you appreciate. There are so many things that you can then plan around your theme, such as decorations, music, or different pieces of art that really speak to who both of you are. Your theme should be something that both of you enjoy, hold close to your heart, and will cherish in your memories for years and years to come.
After you have chosen a theme, you need to think about the colors that you'd like to see incorporated in the wedding. This kind of thinking can be done well in advance of the actual wedding planning, because you can have colors in mind long before you need to have anything else arranged. Try to pick colors that are pleasing to both of you, even if the majority of the colors will be scene in the bridesmaid dresses. If you feel as though you'd like to choose a certain color, be sure to ask your husband to be if he has any objections. Even if you feel that the colors should be the bride's job, think about having to spend the best day of your life surrounded by a color you hate. No matter how much you love something, make sure it is alright with him before you go ahead and pick it!
You can easily incorporate the colors and the theme together to form the general idea of your wedding. You should have themes and colors that go well together - if you are having a time period themed wedding, be sure that your colors fit into the time period. Remember that your colors and your theme are simply the stepping off point for your dream wedding. You are going to see that no matter how much you have to plan, and how much you enjoy the wedding planning process, these kinds of decisions can be made easily, and are much fun to make as well!
You can even go so far as to name your wedding - such as the title of the theme. This can be something that you do privately between the two of you, or it can be something that you share. Either way, it should be something that marks your day as the most beautiful and blessed day that either of you are ever going to share. A perfect day, just for the two of you. Try to keep that in mind no matter how hard to do it seems. This should be the best day of both of your lives, and having a strong theme and color scheme can greatly add to this.
