What Theme Would You Choose?

Elitelioness, on December 23, 2019 at 1:30 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 5
So me and my partner are having a backyard wedding. We were supposed to be going to the courthouse last year, but I called it off after an argument and realised we just weren't ready yet. Gave it another year and we just spontaneously decided "We're ready. Let's do it!"....so we're going to the courthouse in April and then throwing a party at the house after.



So, the small details: We're both Non-Binary so we reaalllyy want a gender neutral wedding. Theme wise we immediately wanted our favourite show Steven Universe but it's just so hard to think of things to decorate because of copy right and such. It also is hard to think "Wedding" And not "Kids Birthday Party".
We are both gamers and our favourite game is Fallout New Vegas. Our announcement is an edited video of the game menu but instead of the game booting, a fake marriage license does. The invitations would also be a poker chip because that's what starts the game off. However, we still can't think of themes for the party. Like food, games, etc.
The last idea was Zootopia. Our favourite movie. It was just thrown out there and I don't know where to begin.
Which theme would you all choose?
A part of me says "all of them"... But am I allowed to do that?

    You are allowed to do whatever theme you want! I personally find all 3 choices to be unique and super fun! You want your wedding to reflect you and your partner get fun with it!


    Take it from another bride doing an out there theme it will make your wedding unique and more memorable!

    Yes - nothing wrong with incorporating all of the themes if that’s what you want - sounds very fun and ultimately, it’s your wedding!

    I highly recommend browsing the archives of Offbeat Bride for inspiration. I don't recall seeing a Steven Universe homage there, but there are plenty of other themed weddings (on a budget, too!) that you can follow the example of. Doctor Who, LoTR, Star Wars/Trek, you get it. Have fun!

    I think you could use each theme idea, but at different parties, if you're worried about balancing each one. Maybe the reception could be Vegas themed, an engagement party or pre-wedding party could be Steven Universe, your engagement shoot could be Zootopia... Another idea is to have each table at your reception be a different theme, a friend of mine did this at their wedding last year (a Disney table, a Harry Potter table, a board games table etc)

    I mean you are allowed to do whatever you want! Zootopia might be a little too much of "kids birthday party" in my opinion. just take a peak on Pinterest with all your ideas - trust me there is so much inspiration there lol
