A Wedding Theme?

Am I the only person who things that the theme for a wedding should be "Love", or "Commitment" or "Forever"?  I ask because, in my research since February (has it only been since February?!?!), I have seen people searching for items and crafting things and generally spending a considerable amount of time, effort and money on things which I think are kind of ridiculous for a wedding.

Maybe it comes from the fact that we're having a traditional church service, so we will use the "official" vows for the church, and there will be no unity candle or sand-pouring business.  We don't feel like we need a "theme"-- the theme is US.  The wedding will be celebrated by an officiant of my religion, the reception will feature delicious food which we decided on, and is being catered by a company who I worked for.  The DJ will play music which includes selections we have specifically chosen for OUR wedding.  We aren't making people come in costume, aren't getting married by a close friend who got ordained for the occasion, and aren't riding away on an elephant.  

What do you think?
