8 Ways to Have a Feng Shui Wedding

My son Sam recently married, so of course, I planned a feng shui wedding for him and his delightful fiancé Cassandra. Here are some wedding tips that I used:

1. The ceremony site had plenty of light, which is symbolic of having a bright future. So Sam and Cassandra had their ceremony at 4:00 in the afternoon so there was plenty of natural lighting. The guests faced a tall mountain, which symbolized the strength of the union. And there was a natural thunderbird on the mountain representing their life together taking flight. The chairs were on grass grounding the couple in the healthy mother earth energy.

   

2. The wedding dress is such a personal choice. In China white is bad luck and red is good luck. I suggest the bride wears whatever makes her feel beautiful. It’s really her day.
3. The Color story sets the mood for the wedding. Red is for romance, Pink is playful and lighthearted, Purple has a passion vibe, yellow is cheerful, blues and greens promote calm and symbolize peace and tender affection, and orange or coral which gives off a sense of warmth promoting conversation and a comfortable atmosphere.

   

4. The best choice for the tables is round which is perfect for harmony and promotes conversation. The chairs should be an even number 6, 8, or 10.
5. The table cloths should be a combination of soft and light materials or yin with an anchor like gold or a heavy one for yang. Both promote and balance the yin and yang energy.
6. The flower arrangements should be impressive and real providing the grandness of the chi energy given by real flowers.
7. The table for the bride and groom will be a tiny symbol of the couples union so be sure to make that a focal point and feels and looks happy.
8. The wedding cake should have an auspicious number of tiers like Sam and Cassandra’s had four tiers representing foundations and the groom’s cake was two tiers representing partnerships. 

 

Feng Shui can bring harmony to any wedding ceremony, however, it is the sincere love of the couple, the family, and the friends that is most important at any wedding or in life.
