Faith, Trust, and Pixie Dust. That's Peter Pan's fool-proof recipe for flying. It is also what some people think I need to find a guy to go along with this out-of-the-box wedding theme.
"Peter Pan" was my all-time favorite Disney movie when I was little. Every time I saw Wendy, John, and Michael fly to Neverland with Peter and Tinkerbell, I knew I was in for a great adventure. I can say for sure that I "never grew up" from loving that movie, just like Peter Pan taught me to do all those years ago.
So, why wouldn't I use "Peter Pan" as a theme? I already got my Pinterest board. It's not going to be too cartoony. I'll be very whimsical and woodland with "Peter Pan" accents, like centerpieces with inspirations from different places and characters of Neverland, and using important colors that represent the movie in the bridesmaid's dresses and table settings.
My flower girl and ring bearer will be dressed as Wendy and Peter, respectively. However, from planning this big event in my life, I have learned one important thing, besides the fact that I should be a wedding planner.
Go with your heart, even if it goes against what others think.
In life, there will be some people who will disagree with what you want or think. People should realize that, at the end of the day, you must do what is right for you and make decisions based on what makes you happy. I get teased about this wedding theme all the time by family and friends, and it is all-in-good-fun, but it's what I know and what I want. I'm not going to let anyone else change my mind.
If people say to you, "If you don't do this, I won't be friends with you," kick them to the curb because A) They are not your friend if they say that and B) You do not need that kind of negativity in your life. If you are passionate about something, make it a reality.
Don't settle for anything less.
This is what I always say about my theme. I want this theme, and if my future husband wants something different, we will compromise and go with my theme. Also, if any man is interested in this, I'll be taking applications for a future husband soon.
