I wouldn't want to do a theme. Not that I have anything against them, I've just seen way too many "themes gone way too far" kind of weddings (like a pirate wedding on a pirate boat with the bride & groom wearing pirate outfits with their vows done in pirate-speak). I want to just keep things simple.

As far as colors, I like ivory & pastel blue. Since I'd like to get married on a beach, I think those would look really good against the sand/water.

Except that the groom was the only white person in the wedding party or in the family at the "reception"...it was really crazy. I was trying so hard to figure it our, my husband had to tell me to stop staring.

Was it something like this: http://www.i-am-bored.com/bored_link.cfm?link_id=22002

I can't find the photos I'm looking for, they're even better.

Only something like 13% of all US weddings are in the winter. And white with red accents is a very popular winter wedding color (er...colors?). Just FYI.

I am completely committed to a summer wedding. Twilight time when the air is just starting to cool off for the day. It's my favorite time of all and what better time for a wedding than your favorite time of all? I love planning parties and am super creative so I have my dream wedding all planned out, start to finish, with only a few minor details missing but I'll spare you all of that. The "theme" is water because I am a Scorpio, my ex-fiance was a Pisces and my dream husband/celebrity crush is a Cancer (actually, I don't think my "dream husband" has a sign...if he does I missed it, which is highly unlikely).

My colors are lavender and navy blue. My bride's maids' dresses will be two pieces with navy A-line skirts and lavendar tops of their choice and my matron of honor's dress will be the opposite (mostly to keep the lavender away from her glowing red hair). Flowers will be varying blue and purple wildflowers. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to have it near a waterfall but if not a giant fountain would suffice.

Getting married in October. We're using Brown & Cream. My dress is Ivory. Not a lot of flowers besides the bouquets & other ceremony flowers but a lot of candles & lanterns at the reception.

That sounds really pretty! Everything will be the color of candlelight!

The best theme weddings I ever attended were when both the bride and the groom were (Revolutionary War, Civil War, etc) reenactors. It gave them a chance to have a historical theme, and get new reenacting clothes!

As for me, I'd only agree to a Christmastime wedding - most of the decorations would already be in place!

So I've picked a weird time to get married. I'm not quite sure what the heck I'm planning. We're getting married Nov. 8 of 08. So...late fall, early winter. It is western PA so it could snow. Or it could be beautiful. I've sort of "decided" upon a red theme, with very light gold accents. My dress itself is a "light gold" (ivory to most sane people) so that's sort of why I went that way. Plus it is easy to get bridesmaids dresses in reds and golds and other fall colors.
