    The venue offered to set up the tables cittong down the cost. So i rented the backdrop for the sweetheart table and simple diy within minutes done.

    If the venue offers the set up for table skirting, check if they can also do backdrops. If not, rent than paying more for the decorator.

    I got my inspiration from the season. We were married September 24th so everything was fall themed. My colours were ivory, gold, and orange, with a touch of red. You're getting married in July and everything is in bloom then. Maybe you would consider a "strawberry social" theme, or a nautical theme if you're going to be near water. There are too many themes to name but hopefully by looking at pictures you'll get an idea. One lady on this site is doing a peacock theme and the colours are gorgeous. You'll find what you like and build from there.

    I have to agree with most people here - Pinterest is a dream haha! If you're going for something earthy, without being too rustic and burlap-ish, then maybe just pick some floral/greenery accents!

    Definitely get some inspiration from Google searches and Pinterest. Allow yourself to fall down the rabbit hole for a few hours and you'll be surprised how quickly you find things you like and can't stand lol.

    I second this! Pinterest is amazing for ideas and inspiration. Search by a theme, or just start following some wedding boards. Your homepage will be filled with inspo in no time!

    I recommend having a look through some of the Real Weddings we have on our site to get some inspiration. Did you know you can filter by style and by color? It might help you start to gather some ideas about what you like!

    Type that ("earthy simplistic") and "wedding" into Pinterest and/or Google. You will get a ton of pictures which you can use as a starting point for your inspiration.

    Pinterest was a big help with this and so was my venue. They provided photos past weddings.


    My FH and I also wandered Michael's one evening and put anything that caught our eye in our cart and created a theme from that.
