How to Plan a Wedding if You’re a Taurus, According to Astrology

Among the zodiac signs, you are most definitely the sign most likely to throw a classic wedding. Taurus Ruled by Venus, Taurus enjoys all things sensual and indulgent. This Earth sign is contemplative and grounded, slow to love, and to plan — but once committed, Taurus will go all in to make a luxurious, meaningful occasion.

“A Taurus will most likely feel drawn to a venue that is traditional and elegant,” explains astrologer Clara Noven of Celestial Insight Astrology. “They’ll be organized and put together, and while it may take them longer to curate, everything is classic and put together and beautifully organized.” A love for good food, sumptuous textures and visual harmony reads so that those things will be as much as the stars of the show as the gowns.

From fashion to florals to planning the ultimate honeymoon, here’s how Taurus’ energy defines the wedding-planning process.

Wedding Planning

Taurus approach planning (especially for something so big, i.e. a wedding) in practical and methodical fashion, says astrologer Felix Rayne. “They have a taste for luxury, but they also respect financial balance. Taurus will probably operate off a very tight budget, focusing on quality, long-term value.”

That means they may need more time to plan than others, and that they frequently book venues well out and extend the length of their engagement. “They’re all about the long run,” says Rayne.

Wedding Season

For a Taurus-compatible date, instead consider something that corresponds with Taurus’ energy — own season (April 20 to May 20) or another Earth or Water sign season, or even the season of a sign that Taurus gets along well with, like Virgo (late August to late September) and Scorpio (late October to late November). In the case of winter weddings, the appearance of a full moon in Virgo is especially auspicious, and they usually occur in late February or early March.

Venue Style

If one sign on this list would book a castle for a wedding, it’s Taurus. “They adore classic, romantic spaces, and will be drawn to a venue that offers architectural charm and beautiful outdoor scenery,” says Rayne. Outdoor ceremonies are no doubt a favourite for this Earth powerhouse.

Wedding Décor

They want timeless elegance Taurus likes to invest in the best. Anticipate soft, romantic touches with handwritten calligraphy, luxe florals and graceful tablescapes. “Cream, moss green and warm taupe are favourite colours — they are grounding the design in earthiness,” says astrologer Eliza Fern.

Food and Drink

Taurus is the foodie of the zodiac. “From welcome drinks to late-night bites, everything will be delicious and intentional,” says Fern. Anticipate indulgent courses and hand-selected cocktail choices—plus, let's not rule out a signature concoction, such a rose-colored "Love Potion."

Taurus’ culinary tastes tend toward hearty, so you might find filet mignon on the menu at the reception.

The Cake

Taurus aren’t particularly flashy for the sake of it, they prefer a quiet opulence. “They like a tiered white cake with really beautiful sugar flowers or elegant ruffles,” explains Fern. Taste is of course the other factor and they are likely to have rich flavors, such as vanilla bean or dark chocolate ganache, as favorites.

Wedding Fashion

As far as wardrobe choices go, Taurus prefers comfort, quality, and timeless shapes. “They don’t do anything to distract anyone’s focus away from them, they wear what accentuates and enhances their natural beauty — a beautiful, luxury fabric in a classic cut,” Noven says. “Often, less is more.”

Vintage inspiration, specifically that of the 1920s, strikes a chord with Taurus and its Venus influence. Imagine blush or champagne pink chiffon. Grooms can try a clean, fitted suit with a pop of color to match their counterpart.

The practical streak of Taurus may make an appearance, as well — consider a second pair of comfy shoes for dancing!

Honeymoon

After the wedding, Taurus wants a destination where they can indulge, put their feet up and get sensual. Italy is a great destination, according to Fern: “Amazing food, deep culture and fantastic art — all things you and Taurus love.” A fantasy ride takes on all the trappings of luxury, but don’t expect the action to commence for at least a week or two. “Perhaps they need time off to recharge before taking on their next big move.”
