THE AESTHETICS
I’ve been obsessed with aesthetics since forever so you know I was crazy about my wedding details. + Start with a moodboard.
Pinterest is literally all you need for determining your wedding vibe. Start pinning anything that you like - hair and makeup to scenery to tablescapes and so on. Then from there, give yourself a couple months if possible and come back to the board. From there, edit it down to things that you pinned more than once and begin focusing on a couple options of everything that you love most (tablescape, chairs, scenery, etc.)

+ Make a list of non-negotiables.
Unless you’re balling out and / or have a super flexible venue, you’ll likely have to compromise on a few things aesthetically. I suggest making a list of non-negotiables before booking anything so that you can budget in your must-haves and be more flex on other items.
+ Incorporate details.
I think the moodboard comes before choosing a venue so that you know what you want / don’t wan’t. So once you have an idea, then it’s time to research venues that give you a similar vibe.
+ Think of the usability of aesthetics. If
you want to get married outside, know that weather might be a thing - so just be prepared for wind, sun, or whatever and make sure you’re OK with that. If you choose wood chairs, will the venue have wood floors and will that be too much wood? Will the long tables you keep pinning work in the venue you booked? Will the flowers you like be in season? Etc. Basically, be prepared to be flexible with some backup options on your moodboard in case you need to go to Plan B based on the venue or your budget.
+ Don’t go overly trendy.
Or if you do, make sure it’s something you absolutely L.O.V.E. because you’ll look at those pictures for decades! IMO, go with aesthetics that you truly die for instead of what you think is trendy or what’s all over Pinterest. Same goes for your hair, makeup, and dress.
P.S. I have lots of inspo saved on my Pinterest account. Come pin with me…
