2. Decor
Decor is one of the main components of your wedding as it will set the tone for the wedding. Ask your
wedding decorator to opt for warm and fuzzy tones and soft lighting, the same decor you would go with for a romantic dinner. A garden with Victorian statues or a lot of fairy lights would add the subtle and absolutely ravishing look to the whole venue. Alternatively, you can go for a
beach wedding or an indoors wedding with a lot of floral centerpieces, candles and low lighting.
3. Outfits
Theme your
wedding lehenga to the Valentines Day theme by adding heart shaped embellishments to the lehenga. You can also have the words of a love letter that was given to you by your significant other sewn on. Additionally, you can have the date you got together, the date you got engaged or any date that means a lot to you sewn on to the hem of your wedding lehenga.
4. Invitations
A fresh and out of the box idea for
invitations is to theme them as letters, from the to-be-married couple to the guests. You could incorporate a romantic touch to the wedding invites like heart-shaped illustrations, a red border and a pretty calligraphy script. This makes the invite so much more authentic and sets the tone for the wedding so the guests can show up dressed and be prepared accordingly.
5. Music
Be sure to have music that is themed according to the idea of your wedding. Romantic music, slow dancing music and of course, throw in some item Bollywood songs for all the dance fanatics there. Arjit Singh, Atif Aslam and Sonu Nigam are some recommendations. Ask your
entertainment agent or DJ to keep these artists in mind and let them take it from there.
6. Heart Shaped Props
You can fill the venue with heart shaped props such as red, pink and white balloons or with hearts made from olive branches. You can also ask your wedding decorator for a balloon arch in the venue made from balloons or flowers in the shape of a heart. Not only will this function as simple and beautiful décor but can also be used as a photo booth location. You can also have floral arrangements around the bar to add a romantic theme.

Give your guests something to look at and adore during the vidaai part of your wedding. Accent the car that you are going to head off in with heart shaped balloons or lots of roses. This will give your wedding the big end as you take off in style.
