And consequently, keeping it in mind, you’ll be in a hurry in search of a place to hold your wedding. Weather, venue and concept are those main blocks that unite the whole celebration and it's important to take each into consideration to get the best possible result. Well, if you'd like to have your wedding in summer, you’ll probably want an outdoor place with a natural rustic theme. Alternatively, it's better to organize a classy or vintage styled wedding in a beautiful hall in case your wedding date is set for winter. However, never get sad if your wedding is scheduled for the summer but you've already booked an indoor venue. Actually, just by adding the right decorations, you can easily adjust it to your theme and style.

Thinking about the clothes and outfits you often prefer to wear in everyday life may hint you at the wedding theme and the dress code that your guests will follow.

• A minimalist theme. This concept perfectly corresponds to those who agree that “simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” Your venue is a key part of the celebration, and the best option would be a rooftop, a spacious loft hall or even a small cozy modern place.
• A rustic theme. Such boho styled weddings are thought to be pretty much affordable and are extremely popular among newlyweds. It's a perfect combination of something simple, natural, relaxed with something charming and elegant. Fresh flowers, beautiful lightning, wood and soft fabrics - and much more, enough for your imagination!
• A beach theme. If you already know a great venue by the sea, this concept will work fantastically.  You don't even need tons of decorations, because the sea is an incredible background on its own. The sound of waves, your closest people next to you and the love of your life becomes now your family. Isn't it a real dream coming true?
