1. Not Having a Theme or a Cohesive Vision

 

A well-designed wedding décor relies on a coherent overall vision. Many couples choose decorative elements based on impulse without considering the bigger picture. The result? A mix of styles that lacks harmony.  

🔹 Common mistake: A mix of colors, materials, and styles that don’t complement each other.  

✅ My solution: I help you define a clear theme and a color palette that enhances your venue and wedding ambiance.  

 

2. Poorly Managing the Color Palette

 

Choosing too many colors or failing to balance them properly can make the décor look chaotic or overwhelming.  

🔹 Common mistake: Mixing too many colors or failing to balance vibrant and neutral tones.  

✅ My solution: I guide you in selecting a well-balanced and harmonious color palette to create an elegant and refined atmosphere.  

 

3. Underestimating the Importance of Lighting

 

Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the mood for a wedding. Even with beautiful decorations, poor lighting can ruin the overall effect.  

🔹 Common mistake: A venue that’s too dark or lighting that’s too cold, disrupting the romantic ambiance.  

✅ My solution: I advise you on lighting arrangements (string lights, lanterns, candles, spotlights…) to create a warm and immersive atmosphere.  

 

4. Buying Instead of Renting (and Blowing the Budget!)

 

Many couples assume that DIY and buying décor items will be cheaper… but accumulating expensive one-time-use items can quickly add up.  

🔹 Common mistake: Spending hundreds of euros on decorations that end up stored away or sold at a loss.  

✅ My solution: With my décor rental options, you get access to high-end pieces without breaking your budget.  

 

5. Poorly Managing Size and Proportions 

 

A centerpiece that’s too large and blocks the view, an arch that’s too small for the space, or candles that go unnoticed… Managing proportions is crucial for a well-balanced design.  

🔹 Common mistake: Not adapting décor sizes to the venue and furniture.  

✅ My solution: I create a custom layout to ensure each element finds its rightful place, achieving a harmonious visual effect.  

 

6. Neglecting the Newlyweds’ Table

 

The couple’s table is a focal point and the place where you’ll spend a significant part of the event. Yet, it’s often decorated too simply or inconsistently with the rest of the venue.  

🔹 Common mistake: A table that lacks impact or isn’t properly highlighted.  

✅ My solution: I design a unique and elegant space to make your table stand out and feel truly special.  

 

7. Forgetting About Logistics and Setup 

 

Even the most beautiful decorations are useless if they’re not properly installed or take too long to set up.  

🔹 Common mistake: A beautifully planned décor on paper, but not enough time or help to set it up correctly on the big day.  

✅ My solution: I manage the full setup and installation so that everything is ready and perfect before you arrive.  

 

8. Failing to Consider the Weather (for Outdoor Weddings)  

 

If your wedding is outdoors, anticipating weather-related challenges is a must.  

🔹 Common mistake: Candles that blow out in the wind, table linens flying away, an unstable arch…  

✅ My solution: I plan for suitable alternatives (weights for stabilization, LED candles, parasols, a solid rain plan…).  

 

9. Overloading the Décor and Forgetting the Essentials  

 

It’s tempting to want to decorate everything, but too many visual elements can dilute the elegance and make the space feel cluttered.  

🔹 Common mistake: An over-decorated space that overwhelms the eye.  

✅ My solution: I focus on quality over quantity, highlighting strategic areas for a chic and refined result.  

 

10. Not Adapting the Décor to the Venue  

 

A château, a beach, an industrial-style venue… Each setting has its own character and should be enhanced with suitable décor.  

🔹 Common mistake: Trying to impose a style that doesn’t match the venue.  

✅ My solution: I ensure your décor blends seamlessly with the setting, highlighting its strengths rather than overshadowing them.
