Tips for Planning a Mansion Wedding

About Me
An Unforgettable Day

A few months ago, my husband and I celebrated our tenth wedding anniversary. During this special time, I thought about our beautiful wedding day. We were married in the church I’ve attended since I was a young child. In fact, my father has pastored this small, country church for the past twenty-nine years. On my wedding day, my dad had two jobs. He walked me down the aisle and officiated my wedding ceremony. I will never the look on my husband’s face when he saw me wearing my off-the-shoulder, satin wedding gown with a royal train for the first time. His smile was priceless. Even though I’ve had ten years to think about my wedding day, I still don’t think it could have been any more perfect than it was. On this blog, I hope you will learn some tips to make your upcoming wedding unforgettable.

Planning a wedding is never easy. However, when you are planning a mansion wedding, things can become a little bit more intimidating. While there are many traditional things that you will need to bear in mind, there are some special considerations that can make your mansion wedding truly unforgettable. If you have been searching for ideas to make your mansion wedding stand out. Here are a few ideas to get you started.

Utilize the Mansion's Features

Mansions come with gorgeous features, there are columns and beautiful staircases. Decorating these areas should be a priority as they can provide an interesting backdrop to your wedding. If you are planning to hold a reception later on in the day as night falls you can light up the columns and staircases to showcase them. This will create a mysterious and romantic ambiance.

Choose Flowers

The mansion and its surroundings should inspire your floral arrangements. Take a look at the areas surrounding the mansion. If there is a forest or a field nearby, you can take some of the wildflowers from the environment and use them to help you to decorate. Take a look at the colors that naturally occur in the outdoors and pull ideas from them to decide which type of flowers you want to use to decorate the venue.

Implement Your Wedding Theme

Most mansions have a history behind them and you can capitalize on this history to help you choose a theme for your wedding. For example, you can ask about when the mansion was built and use that time in history as your theme. You can use the music from that era as well and even use clothing from that time to inspire your bridesmaid's dresses. When you take this approach, your wedding will be more memorable for both you and your guests.

Take Care of Your Guests

If your wedding will be outdoors, then you need to ensure that there is proper seating and covering for everyone, especially at the reception. Get a tent to cover your guests from sunlight or even rain. Make sure that your guests are comfortable by providing the right amount of snacks, main course meals, and water. 

A mansion wedding can easily become the wedding of your dreams. All you have to do is ensure that you plan it properly and use what you have available to you. Once you do this, you are sure to have an unforgettable wedding.
