You may have a vision of how you want the overall event to go, but keep some flexibility in your plans. You never know when a great idea will hit you that you can incorporate. Also, it is a big day where there are a lot of players at work. Little things can get forgotten or go wrong. Don't let it bother you. By Sabrina (Sikora) Dommenge
Colors that you like to look at should be part of your physical space, table cloths, napkins, flowers, candles.
They bring family, friends, and favorite or special places together to celebrate their commitment and create a lasting memory. Care is given to the food, music, flowers, passages read to commemorate faith, and the pledge given to each other. Read More

Colors
For 2012, there will be quite a variety of colors seen throughout. Bold, dramatic colors such as red and black will make a comeback and be seen accompanied with lace accents and overlays. Pastels will be making an appearance through the spring with yellow, sage and lilac taking the lead. Neutral colors such as beige tones and cool blues will also be found for a more natural and organic vibe.

The year of lace is 2012! Victorian styled gowns are all the rage. High necklines, long sleeves, full skirts and lots of lace will be seen on many brides heading down the aisle. With Kate Middleton’s gown as inspiration, this trend will be around well through the year. All black wedding gowns are also making their move into everyday bridal fashion. Always pushing the envelope, fashion designer Vera Wang debuted her line of black wedding gowns in the fall of 2011, which have caught the attention of many brides-to-be.
Florals
Simple bouquets that are classic and elegant will be found. Small pairings of roses, peonies and hydrangeas in blush, ivory and white will be found in the hands of brides and bridesmaids alike. Bouquets will be adorned with pearls, lace and feathers. Custom brooch bouquets are also on the rise, which are great for brides of any budget.
Themes
Themed weddings are making a strong comeback. From old Hollywood Glitz & Glamour to Vintage Big Top Circus, bold themes will be common among couples saying, “I Do” in 2012. Themes will be carried throughout the wedding with decor, florals and custom invitations and stationery. Going with their theme, couples will be bringing in additional entertainment along with their DJ or band such as acrobats, magicians, specialty singers or dancers and more.
Cakes & Flavors
Dessert is going to be a main focus in 2012. Wedding cakes will be tiered higher then ever before but the styles will become more minimalist. White cakes with hand-painted designs full of color will be seen and many couples will incorporate patterns from their invitations and stationery. Flavors will also be taking it to the next level! Last year was the year of red velvet, but the new year will bring in more exotic flavors such as passion fruit, mango rum and pomegranate. With edible favors still trending, couples are opting for late night snack bars and coffee to go stations with cupcakes, cookies, pastries and more. Guests better be ready to eat when they head to a wedding in 2012!
Honeymoon & Registry
Couples in 2012 are looking for adventure! Heading to an exotic location such as Thailand or embarking on a safari in Africa have been replacing the all inclusive beach honeymoon trend. To experience the most during their trip, couples have created registries that allow guests to contribute towards excursions, meals, and outings during their honeymoon. Online registries such as Cloud9Living.com offer an easy to use website and encourage couples to create memories that will last a lifetime. n
