Lord Thompson Manor About Wedding Motif
Dec 10th, 2009 by Lord Thompson Manor
At the Lord Thompson Manor, all of our weddings have specific colors. Many have themes—for example, the elegant, classic, versatile Garden theme. Our most sophisticated weddings even have motifs, little images or ideas which recur in all sorts of small details to bring each wedding to a cohesive whole.
A motif might begin right when the bride and groom set their date, and can carry through to the thank-you cards. If they decide, for example, on a Beach theme with a Seashell motif, they might print their Save the Date cards or invitations with images of conch or scallop shells. As the big day draws nearer, the bride might choose a mermaid dress and put her bridesmaids in sandy beige with pearlescent seashell (or shell-inspired) accessories. Shells can inspire the choice of flowers, decorate the wedding cake table or adorn the centerpieces. Then, each wedding favor can come as a personalized message in a bottle, with a small gift, a few shells and a small “Thank you for coming to our special day” note in a little plastic or glass bottle. Finally, when the bride and groom send thank-you notes for the wedding gifts they received, they can use cards with shells on them.
