Considering the various holidays and the rejuvenated
wildlife that are typical of this season, springtime
weddings allow the bride to be very creative with
themes. Below are a few ideas to coordinate with
this season:
Garden Theme:
-
Decorate your ceremony with tulips and daffodils and
continue with that theme by using watering can
centerpieces filled to the brim with freshly cut
spring flowers.
-
Leave your ceremony location in a shower of petals
instead of birdseed or bubbles.
-
Dress your bridesmaids in pastel colors and hand out
to your guests personalized seed packets for
them to take home as a lasting tribute to your
wedding.
Victorian Tea Party Theme:
-
Walk down the aisle in a lace dress and create a
romantic atmosphere with plenty of candles.
-
If your reception is in the evening, light up the
walkways with wedding luminaries.
-
Purchase or borrow lace tablecloths and for your
centerpiece use a collection of tea cups with
votive candles inside.
-
Let your centerpiece break away at the end of the
reception to be used as individual favors, or
send your guests home with several packages of
herbal tea.
Easter Theme:
-
Decorate the ceremony location with potted lilies and
hyacinths.
-
If you plan to have your ceremony at a church, check
to see if it will already be decorated, saving
you a ton of money.
-
For centerpieces, incorporate Easter baskets.
Finally, send each guest home with a plastic egg
stuffed with goodies or their own chocolate
Easter bunnies.
May Day Theme:
-
Back in the day, kids would go “a-maying” on May 1.
That is, they would travel the countryside in
search of flowers. In keeping with the spirit,
dazzle your guests with numerous blossoms during
the ceremony and reception.
-
Dress your bridesmaids in bright colors and use bright
colored ribbons to travel down poles and
pillars.
Continue the theme with your cake by separating the
tiers with miniature Maypoles.
