Outdoor wedding themes really do depend on the location. One couldn t plan on a Hawaiian Luau with a volcano in the background in any other place than in Hawaii. Sure, some other tropical island might work, but it wouldn t be a Hawaiian luau with a native Hawaiian officiating as judge or minister. But, you could plan a Hawaiian luau wedding wherever you are with flower leis for each guest and the wedding party dressed Hawaiian style with large flowers behind the ears of women in the wedding. Hawaiian music could be played or recordings of Don Ho singing his romantic songs would highlight the wedding and assure everyone a memorable time.
Working on that premise that one can choose any theme from any part of the world and decorate around it, an Alice in Wonderland theme would make for a wedding that would most definitely be remembered. Wedding members could plan their outfit around the Queen of Hearts or Alice herself. The gentlemen could dressed as if they were coming to tea and the ushers could be the Queen of Hearts guards. There is no end to the fun that could be had as well as the solemnity of a wedding feast planned by the Queen of Hearts for Alice and her rabbit groom.
Planning an outdoor wedding theme involves looking at the area that you can use. Deciding on a mission statement and executing it down to the last detail. An Alice in Wonderland theme would work great in a park with signs signalling the rabbit hole entrance. It could be just the entrance to a large tent for the wedding feast.
Of course, if what is wanted is a daringly romantic adventurous theme, a wedding in Sherwood Forest with the bride and groom dressed as Robin Hood and Maid Marian and the wedding party as his merry men would capture the spirit of the wedding as an outdoor real life experience. After all, Robin Hood and his merry men did actually live outdoors. The romantic British accents of the Sheriff of Nottingham officiating and ladies headdresses and gentlemen in capes would make for a brilliant wedding event.
If one lives near a river, or lake, an Indian wedding theme would recapture Longfellow s Hiawatha and bring the grand poet s longing for the majestic red man back to life. The wedding party can add the quaint touch of the wealthy squaw with beads and feathers and jade jewelery leading their princess to the wedding altar. The river background would be an ideal place for wedding photographs and maybe a canoe or two for accent.
A simple outdoor theme could be a parking lot wedding. The officiating judge could be dressed like a parking lot attendant and round up all incoming guests and park them in designated areas. The bride and groom could come in and roar out on a motorbike. Their attendants could be their guests and the food could be prepared by a short order cook standing behind a long table. Whatever theme you decide on be sure and invite all your relatives because you don t want the rest of your married life being left out.
