Ask couples who are seriously in love and they will tell you they hope for the courtship to blossom into marriage when the time comes. So, you are among the lucky ones. Now that he had proposed and you could not be anymore eager to say “I do”, then, what’s next? Plan for your wedding!
As simple as the next step seems to be, the truth will unveil that it takes you forever to get the planning and preparation done. From deciding on the date for your big day to the decision on who is going to make the toast; from the starting of smooth plan execution to the last minute changes due to the unforeseen circumstances; planning for a weeding doesn’t sound easy anymore.
Nevertheless, either you are looking forward to have the “Wedding of the Century” or just a simple but yet memorable wedding ceremony, browsing through the choices available can get you indecisive for a while. Surely you want to have the best offer you can get within your budget allocations.
But where should you start from?
Well, you can begin by putting your thoughts on the concept of the wedding that suits you.
Thematic wedding ceremonies are gaining in popularity amongst the future bride and groom; young couples and senior couples alike. A theme wedding, as the name suggests, is like giving your wedding a master plan on the story line of your wedding and what the wedding preparation should focus on.
It is actually a variation of what the conventional nuptial plan used to be. Instead of following the traditional or custom-bound ceremony that your grandparents or perhaps your parents used to have, you glitter up your day by giving it a title. The wedding theme can be centered on the fairy tale, the garden, … beach, or on certain subjects such as heart-shaped, cupids, etc. So, you want something elegant and yet whimsical as your wedding theme; consider this rising star: the “butterfly wedding theme”!
BUTTERFLY WISHES IN PRECIOUS JEWELS COLLECTION
Now, you may ask, why butterflies? Why not a dragonfly or any other fly? Or better still, why insects? The answer is simple and straightforward: because it is a beautiful creature! A butterfly is a type of insect with largely often brightly coloured wings. It flutters soft and gracefully. Thus as a great icon to symbolize the cheerfulness and blissfulness that you are looking forward in your wedding day, this is indeed a splendid idea.
So get yourself a cup of coffee, sit down and visualize this: A nice beautiful garden filled with romantic music on your wedding day. Look around and you will see all the colourful butterfly motifs for the wedding backdrops, aisle, ring pillow, flower bouquet, candles and candle holders, table clothes, napkins, guest book, and basically onto all the objects visible on your wedding ceremony.

On the wedding attire, let your wedding accessories such as tiara, and headpiece and even your wedding gown have the magic touch of butterfly-motif decoration too. If you are daring enough, you may even get a temporary “butterfly tattoo” to go along with it. That shall be a good start. So what else? Now, don’t limit your imaginations! Think again: it’s a butterfly thematic wedding plan.

Outdoor scenes such as at the butterfly garden (if available) will be a great venue for the photography session or manipulate the digital multimedia to do the trick. The point is, by the time you share the DVD slide shows or photo montage shows during the wedding day, they will perfectly match the whole concept of a butterfly wedding.
