The Cinemas

• A photo booth is a great wedding activity for guests.cinema image by Aleksandar Radovanovic from Fotolia.com
  
  Hold your reception at an old theater or staging company. Play up to the theme by providing a red carpet for guests, enlarging black and white engagement photos to place in the "upcoming movies" frames, and creating a dessert spin on movie popcorn by presenting gooey caramel popcorn balls on gold plates.
  
  

Carnival

• Combine pastel colors with gold decorative accents for a carnival-themed wedding.carnival detail image by Aaron Kohr from Fotolia.com
  
  A carnival wedding theme can be recreated in any blank slate venue. While you aren't renting carnival rides and hiring clowns, you do want to capture the essence of a carnival in your wedding decor. Carnival colors are soft and vibrant. A muted color palette will work best to capture the whimsy of a carnival, so use pastel colors. For your food, provide a delicious twist to the typical carnival food. Talk with your caterer about ways to present and cook hot dogs, funnel cakes, cotton candy and candy apples. Carnival lighting can be achieved by stringing big electric bulbs across key areas, especially the dance floor. Make a few home made signs to mimic the carnival feel by using driftwood and paint. Scuff your sign up a bit for a vintage carnival look. Place pin wheels and balloons sporadically around the room.
  
  

Beach

• Chose colors within this beach palette including soft blues and greens and white sandy colors.beach image by Amjad Shihab from Fotolia.com
  
  A beach wedding is for the summer time in any location. A beach theme is appropriate for couples who love the ocean, who plan on taking a beach honeymoon, or got married on the beach and are returning home to celebrate with friends and family. Stick with calming colors and light, airy fabrics. Use seashells, water and palm branches in your decor, but don't use sand as it is messy and ends up everywhere.
  
  

Garden

• Search for a reception site with a garden fountain view.Fountain in garden. Garden design image by L. Shat from Fotolia.com
  
  Wildflowers, natural beauty and rustic accents can be combined for a garden-themed wedding. Vintage mason jars with wildflower bouquets work as table centerpieces. Potted plants, moss, birch bark, creek rocks, lantern lighting and goddess attire will transform your site into a garden wedding.
  
  

Seasonal Wedding

• A snowy landscape can be the inspiration for a winter wedding.winter image by Manfred Sutor from Fotolia.com
  
  When planning a season-themed wedding, bring the outdoors inside. Let your outdoor surroundings inspire your color palette. For winter weddings use white, silver and blue. Spring weddings should be floral and pastel. Use vibrant colors for summer and for fall, like browns, oranges and other harvest colors. Pick seasonal food to serve your guests.
