Summr-engagments-3CHOOSE A FOCAL POINT

Your plans will come together more quickly if you start with one simple element of your wedding, and then let the other choices ripple out from that one focal point.  Choosing a central theme or focus for your wedding – and sticking to it – will help eliminate a lot of choices.
Let’s say you want a simple, classic look to your wedding.  Rather than selecting big, brash centerpieces for your tables, you decide on a smaller, more homespun look.  Good.  Now, you have a simple centerpiece.  Now, the next step is to head over to check out Things Remembered’s selection of toasting flutes.  Knowing that your centerpiece is understated, you’ll want to choose a flute that has a similarly understated design.  With that in mind, our huge selection of toasting flutes won’t look so overwhelming.  Even the personalization  you choose for your flutes can be simplified to just the first names of the bride and groom for a personal (and unforgettable) touch.
Having a solid focal point for your wedding will inform nearly every style decision you make, and that will make your wedding planning much easier.  From that point on, it will be all about matching each element to your focal point.  And that’s as simple as it sounds.

At TR, we make it easy to create your dream wedding and because it’s personalized, it will be an unforgettable memory that you will love a remember years from now.
