The dress.

For many brides, it's the most important physical element of the wedding and truly does dictate much of the wedding décor. This spring, gown designs are all about romance. Lace, ruffles and floral accents are taking over the runways; couple this with a modern asymmetrical neckline and you are the epitome of fashion for 2010 spring weddings.

The accessories.

Don't forget the wedding accessories! Once you’ve found the dress of your dreams the rest of the wedding planning tends to fall into place. Exude romance with vintage style accessories like birdcage veils, pearls, and feathers. Make it funky and flirty by wearing pieces that make a statement just be sure to bring a color swatch that is as close to the color of your wedding dress as you can get. This will help you choose colors that compliment the dress. The last thing you want is a white veil with your ivory dress; it will make your beautiful gown look dingy! Feeling bold?

The colors.

Hot colors for 2010 spring weddings include Turquoise, Cobalt, Poppy, Coral, Violet, and Yellow, which can be paired with neutrals like taupe, champagne, and varying shades of army green. Prints and plaids that include these colors are sure to make a statement on your big day. Tone down a bold stripe or plaid with a subtle neutral floral print to bring the romantic feel of the season into your wedding décor.

The food.

Last, but certainly not least: the food. Look at it as another extension of your wedding decor. It keeps the mood of the wedding going. Whether its a buffet of comfort food or beautifully plated cuisine, face it, food makes people happy! Spring is the time of year when we lighten our food choices. We opt for fish rather than red meat and salads rather than baked potatoes.  Popular choices for this season include various shellfish (depending on your budget) accented with lemon and herbs for a very light, fresh taste. Pork or lamb chops garnished with mint and chicken piccata are also good main course options. Add seasonal fruit (i.e. raspberries, blueberries, papaya) and seasonal vegetables (i.e. asparagus, snap beans, rainbow swiss chard) of different colors to keep the plate interesting and tasty! Remember, everything will come together in the end so keep and open mind and enjoy your wedding planning. Don't let anyone or anything stress you out. After all, you are planning one of the happiest days of your life! With that I say, congratulations and happy planning!
