How to have a Traditional Wedding
Are you someone who doesn't do anything half-heartedly? If you have always wanted to throw the perfect traditional wedding, complete with all the frills? Here's everything you'll need to know to plan the ultimate traditional wedding that your guests will remember for years to come.
A Traditional Wedding Venue
A traditional wedding concentrates on the couple's cultural roots and combines heritage and a nice atmosphere to usher in a new marriage. It's really about integrating traditions from both cultures, and the overall cost of the wedding is frequently overlooked. Based on the sheer extravagance and large guest lists that usually accompany a traditional wedding, the party generally extends into the night in a dance hall. This provides enough room for dancing, games, and rituals to occur without feeling crowded.
The Highfield House is a Victorian/mock Elizabethan merchant's House with a lot of character, making it ideal for a traditional wedding. Our Reception Hall is an elegant royal blue that is ideal for wedding photography of the couple before or after the ceremony. Following the ceremony, guests will be able to wander the truly magical grounds, or even relax in the drawing-room. When you visit Highfield, you will notice our beautifully decorated spaces. One of our distinguishing features is that our spaces don't require much additional decoration; we include everything you see.
The Wedding Dress
A traditional wedding gown is designed in the style of a princess, most notably Cinderella. The top is fitted, and the skirt is full and dramatic. Since weddings are usually held indoors, the traditional bride will not have to worry about different terrains ruining her beautiful white gown. As a result, if you're thinking about wearing a royal-length monarch train, you won't have to worry about it snagging on a tree. However, if you are a bride who isn't concerned with following all of the traditions, then beautiful gardens will be ideal for your wedding photos.
Traditional Flowers
The classic traditional wedding is distinguished by neat, one-colour bouquets and flower arrangements. Roses seem to be very popular among traditional brides, and they are frequently in white to match the 'white wedding' aesthetic that almost all traditional brides desire. Bridesmaids at a traditional wedding will frequently carry a bouquet similar to the bride's, though theirs will be smaller or a different colour.
Decor
When it comes to decorating the classic traditional wedding, there is a strong emphasis on white, that may be where the term "white wedding" originates. The decor is always very fresh and lavish, and no expense is spared in adding those special little details. Big chandeliers and a lot of glamour are common features of traditional weddings. Each table usually has the same towering centrepiece, and the 'top table' is higher and overlooks the reception venue. By doing this everyone can see the marrying pair, who are the most important figures on the day!
