Beach, boho or city chic: these are the accessories you need to work your wedding theme
If the word theme conjures images of tacky sets and garish props, think again: it takes vision and finesse to pull off a theme, but detailed attention to the decor and styling can enhance your wedding and make it an all-round, fun experience for the guests. Whether you want to go breezey with a beach theme, fairytale with romantic boho or take inspiration from the city, these are the accessories that will make your big day sparkle.
