Cosmic guide to the wedding of every sign’s dream.
By: Jaclyn Ianetti
Just incase someone in YOUR life decides to put a ring on your finger and your suddenly swamped with initial wedding fantasies filling up in your head, this quick guide will give you a glimpse into the visions of your true wedding wishes according to your zodiac sign. By connecting with the cosmos, you will be more in touch with the overall image of how you want your wedding day to look and turn out just by keeping in mind what matters most to you. Be sure you know your sun sign as well as your moon & rising signs, which can also help to pull all the pieces together to creating that vision. This visualization is a sneak peak to your wedding day, as it reflects all of the colors of your imagination…and your imagination will lead you to your truest wedding dreams. Astrology can help show you what belongs in your mental picture…a first step that beautifies the final outcome of your wedding day.
ARIES (March 21-April 20): “The Royal Ram”
Think Mariah Carey: Royal, rich, extravagant. Aries brides want a wedding that is fit for royalty. Whether it is your first walk down the aisle, or a third trip to the altar, you want the full white bridal affair. However, there is also a tomboyish aspect to many Aries who would much rather skip those stereotypical trappings. If you are this type, you might prefer to spend your bridal budget on a trip around the world instead. Bottom line: You’re impatient and want a wedding that reflects your individuality without compromising your independent nature. TAURUS (April 21-May 21): “The Beautiful Bull”
Think Donatella Versace: Simple sophistication. Luxury-loving Taurus has refined taste, and your wedding day is a chance to show that off. Although you can certainly be over-the-top, your wedding will be chic & classy, not tacky. As an Earth sign, you love an outdoor element. An outdoor ceremony under a wedding arch, or billowing white tents with chandeliers or floating lanterns and a lavish buffet of gourmet, local food can fulfill your wedding wishes. GEMINI (May 22-June 21): “The Teasing Twin”
Think: Games, jokes, joy & laughter…adventure & adrenaline rushes. For you, getting married is all about fun. If your adventurous sign is going to commit, there better be some adrenaline involved. You’d rather strap on a parachute and say your vows while jumping out of a plane and skipping the traditional altar ceremony. After the vows, you’ll throw an awesome, informal rooftop party as your reception party…with everyone dancing until dawn. You might even hop into the DJ booth yourself, or convince your guests to jump fully clothed into the swimming pool, leading the way in your wedding dress!
CANCER (June 22-July 23): “The Crab of Comforts”
You’re traditional and sentimental, and weddings are all about family for Cancers. Female relatives and friends are particularly important to you, and you’ll want to honor your mom, grandma and lifelong best friend (who will undoubtedly be your maid of honor) with personalized segments of the ceremony and party. Teary-eyed toasts, your mother’s engagement ring (maybe even her dress) and a wedding on the beach all resonate with your sign’s Water element and create the feeling of being comfortable and right at home. Your biggest hassle will be getting your huge bridal party to agree on a dress color and length that they all like and can agree on. LEO (July 24-August 23): “The Loud Lioness”
Loud as in …Lights, Camera, and Matrimony! Your showy sign loves to put on a theatrical production — and your wedding day is the perfect excuse. Choosing an appropriately dramatic venue and dress will be most important to you. In fact, you may have several outfit changes (a different costume for each “act” is only fitting, right?). Your main goal is to make sure that there’s “too much” of everything: food, drink, merriment and, of course, romance. Every poetic word of your vows, every toast, and every glass-clinking kiss should move people to tears. Read more: PART 2

Here’s a cosmic guide to the wedding of every sign’s dream.
VIRGO (August 24-Sept 23): “The Picky Princess”
You’re a simple kind of girl, but your wedding day is an exception. You want to feel like an absolute princess on your wedding day. Handling the production details will be important to your practical sign, and you’ll work side-by-side with your wedding planner (or may even chose to wear that hat yourself) to craft a spreadsheet that tracks your budget, vendors and timeline. You want to make sure every guest is exquisitely taken care of, with gift baskets waiting in their hotel rooms and special favors on their dinner plates. But make no mistake: You’re the Queen Bee of this day!
LIBRA (Sept 24-Oct 23): “The Goddess of Glamour”
Your wedding should be a gorgeous day of love and sentiment. Libra is the sign of relationships and ruler of the zodiac’s marriage house…and also is the sign governed by Venus, the planet of love, beauty and romance. You want tons of flowers, poetry, music, champagne and other sweet touches. Your sentimental side will come out in full force, not that it’s ever really hidden. You love to get glamorous, so book a full glam squad for pre-wedding pampering before you slip into your show stopping gown. Of course, your nails are your biggest priority, so a meticulous manicure and pedicure are at the top of your list before the big day! SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 22): “The Sexy Shadow Girl”
Admit it Miss secret Scorpio…you’ve been planning this day since you were a little girl, down to the very last detail. You know exactly what you want and where to get it. Picking out the ring, the dress, and the cake will seem like a piece of cake to you! –because you know the styles, the shops, and the exact store locations as to where to hunt them down and find exactly what you’re looking for. You want this to be the most memorable (and picture-worthy) day of your life. The icing of the cake for you is the chance to channel your creativity and show off your impeccable taste. Scorpio is a private sign, so you may want to keep the guest list small enough to make your wedding intimate and meaningful.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23-Dec 22): “The Wild Child Wedding”
Adventurous and fiercely independent, you’re hardly the traditional bride. Just because you’re getting married doesn’t mean you’re not the same wild-and-crazy girl, and your wedding proves it. If that means hiring Cirque du Soleil performers, setting up a karaoke lounge, or eloping to a Vegas chapel, so be it. You’ve got a zillion friends from all walks of life, so bringing them together for a fun, memorable day could take quite a toll on your budget. As the sign of the traveler, you may want to host a destination wedding, or just have everyone gather informally on the beach or in a big open field for your vows, before heading off to a separate reception.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 23-Jan 20): “The Loyal Lover”
You take “till death do us part” right to the very core of your heart.
Deeply traditional, Capricorn takes her vows and commitments seriously. When you give your word to something, you really do mean exactly what you say. Family is a big part of why you’re getting married, so you’ll honor your very own by having the wedding location in your “childhood church”…a house of worship you grew up going to or even in your parents’ backyard. You like simple and classic with a VIP twist, and that will be expressed in your dress, your ceremony and your reception. The ultimate giveaway that you’re a Capricorn bride?: Your understated elegance and pared-down wedding style…which makes you an instant icon. AQUARIUS (Jan 21-Feb 19): “The Bohemian Badass”
Think: Barefoot in the park or at the beach. With your bohemian soul, you want a wedding that defies convention and expresses your unique, quirky personality. As the sign of group activity and friendship, you’re most concerned about the guests having a good time and feeling at ease. You’ll add creative, funny elements to ensure that. You want it to be relaxed and fun for everyone, with more laughter than tears. Chances are, you’re marrying your BFF, and you want to make sure the playful spirit of your bond is expressed. PISCES (Feb 20-March 20): “The Mystical Mermaid”
You’re the zodiac’s sign of fantasy and illusion, and your wedding should sweep people away to a magical land. Romantic to the core, you want the fairy tale, albeit with a creative twist. You take pride in your “indie” tastes and will have a ruling hand in the music playlist, the decor and other aesthetic details. Pisces is ruled by Neptune, mythic god of the sea, so a beach ceremony or one surrounded by water will suit your fancy and make you feel like a true aquatic angel. Your inner mermaid emerges with the help of sequins, shimmery satin, pearls, or even a fishtail gown.

Display happy pictures of you and your loved one laughing, smiling, hugging, and kissing. Frame the pictures that conjure up the best of memories, including any professional wedding pictures.
Save the happy family photos to be showed elsewhere around the gathering spaces of your home, like the living room or kitchen. Keeping family photos out of the main bedroom and putting any stray photos into albums will minimize struggles with family fall-outs and help to maintain healthy boundaries with relatives and within your own romantic relation.
It’s just those…good vibrations.
…and I don’t mean you’re cell phone vibrating constantly updating your inbox. Empty old messages everywhere you can think of…you’re text message log, voicemails, email accounts, etc. Letting messages accumulate can make it difficult to get your wants and needs across. Erasing old messages will keep the means of communication clear, thus inducing clear communication between you & your spouse, minimizing misunderstandings in dialogue and feelings of being unappreciated.
Accessorize candlesticks, lamps, picture frames, etc. in pairs anywhere in the home, especially the bedroom, to amplify that two-of-a-kind energy you’re going for. Always keep in mind that being selective with colors,photographs, and other subtle details add to the aura of keeping it a sacred place for two.
Every other room and detail in the house can create a more relaxing home for your relationship to stay happy & healthy…
The Living Room
Think…Inviting. Position the sofa back up against the wall to face the main entry to enhance feelings of security. Create symmetrical arrangements between pairs of seats and sofas to invite connection and positive energy.
The Bathroom
This is the “self-care” room in the house. Splurge on a new shower curtain, towels, and bath mats: the more sparkling clean it is, the more you will find time for the things and people that bring you the most joy…including the holder of your heart, your spouse.
The Kitchen
…The health & wellness sector. Clear out cabinets, cupboards, the pantry, refrigerator & freezers. Purging and detoxing your kitchen will purge unwanted, stagnant energy out of you, creating an overall sense of well-being for you and your loved one.
Feng Shui for Two…and YOU.
All of these Feng Shui tips are designed to bring renewed energy to the areas of your life that will positively impact your romance, as well as many other relationships including the most important one…the one you have with yourself.
