A
s the sign of tradition and public image, Capricorn wants a big, impressive
wedding, well-attended by childhood friends, family and important business
associates. As with everything, you’ve probably worked long and hard
to find a marriageable mate, so you might as well honor this accomplishment!
Just because you have a conservative side doesn’t mean you lack creative flair. Your solid good taste will ensure a classic wedding with added individual touches, like bongo drummers or a bonfire. Although you hide your sentimentality, inside you’re an incurable romantic, so go old–fashioned with your special day. Hire the best photographer, splurge on a lavish buffet and treat everyone like a high-styling VIP. Capricorn Carolyn Bessette Kennedy proved the ultimate bride: her nuptials with JFK Jr. were shot in classic black–and–white film.
For your dress, go classic and simple: Ralph Lauren, country chic or modern basic look best on you. For a twist, add a family heirloom, like your grandmother’s wedding jewels or an intricate, handmade veil. Image is important to Capricorns, so your dress should be proper and parent–approved, but still glamorous. A high–necked gown, satin gloves, and other old–fashioned touches go far. Just don’t let your concerns about what’s “appropriate” steer you into frumpiness. Honor your inner bad girl with sexy lingerie and a frilly garter, kept hidden from all but your groom.
As the sign of the mountain goat, a rugged or wilderness landscape suits
your earthy nature. You could marry at a ski lodge, or in a huge log cabin
with a wood-burning fireplace and antlers on the wall. Or, you might try a
polo club, where you can wed in the “old money” style many Capricorns love.
Either way, you’ll want to feel like the mistress of ceremonies, providing
the best of everything for your guests. Opt for a rustic, hearty buffet
with unusual dishes, like wild game hen or venison. You love crisp outdoor
air, so plan a Fall or winter wedding, when you can light a fire and get cozy.
Since you cherish time with your closest companions, you might rent an entire
resort and put everyone up for the weekend. If everyone leaves, feeling like
one big, happy family, you can add this to your treasured lifelong memories.
That, to a Capricorn, makes everything worthwhile.
