A Valentine's Day Wedding

What better time to marry than Valentine's Day- the day we all celebrate love!  Love is in the air, and a with a Valentine theme you can have a wedding that's pure romance.  Here are a few ideas to add extra romance to your ceremony:

  • Choose a romantic setting: a lovely church, a romantic country inn, bed & breakfast or winery, a castle or historic mansion.  Look for cozy, intimate, and charming, or grand and elegant.
     
  • Decorate the ceremony site with an abundance of flowers, candelabras, rose petals, white tulle, elegant red or pink velvet bows on pews or chairs, and kissing balls hanging from doorways.
     
  • Arrive in a romantic horse-drawn carriage.
     
  • Greet your guests with romance from the moment they walk in.  You can do this beautifully and simply with white floating candles and red rose petals in crystal bowls of water on either side of the entrance.
     
  • Have the ushers give flowers to each of your female guests as they arrive.
     
  • Have a candlelight ceremony.
     
  • Wear a white dress with red accents, a red gown, or a pink gown with a heart-shaped neckline.  Accessorize with heart-shaped or ruby jewelry. How about a red garter?  Or a red velvet cape?  Wear roses in your hair.  Carry a bouquet of one dozen red roses.
     
  • Bridesmaids can wear red or pink, and carry a single rose, a basket of roses, or a floral heart on a ribbon.
     
  • A flower girl can scatter rose petals or carry a cute plush animal with a big red heart.
     
  • The groom and groomsmen can wear red or pink shirts, ties or vests, and rose boutonnières.
     
  • Ask your officiant to include sweet details of your love story in the service, such as where you met or how he proposed.
     
  • Ask your officiant to to give a special Valentine's Day blessing to other married couples during your ceremony. Or, after the two of you have exchanged vows, have your officiate invite all the married couples in attendance to stand and renew their vows.
     
  • Include romantic readings in your ceremony.
     
  • Have a string quartet or a harpist provide romantic wedding music for the ceremony.
     
  • Have a unity candle ceremony and use a heart shaped candle holder.
     
  • Write love letters to each other and read them out-loud as part of your ceremony.
     
  •  Or read the lyrics to your favorite long songs.  If you sing well, sing them- or have a soloist sing them for you.
     
  • Exchange roses as your first gift as husband and wife.
     
  • End your Valentine's Day ceremony with a lovely dove release, or have your guests shower you with rose petals from petal cones.
