Hi everyone. So I am getting married in June and even though I live in California with my fiance we are going to travel all the way to Germany for this, because that’s where most of my family is. His family is quite small, so it was the better choice.
Anyway, how can I make a theme out of our two heritages? America and Germany. I’m having trouble getting inspired! How could I incorporate this into the decorations, the invitations, and so on and so forth?
Does anyone have ideas?
Thanks so much 
By the way, I know the German and American traditions, so I think I’m good on that. I can’t think any further though …
That is really cool! Personally, I would keep it more with the German decorations. The Americans who attend will think it is really cool, and I think it will mean more to you in the end. Or you could mix the colors by having red, white, blue, and gold, red and black. Have the different tables covered in the traditional American flag, as well as the German flag. Man this is a tough one! My parents were married in Germany and they had a castle theme.
