Spring Wedding Theme

Perhaps there could be no better season to celebrate the sacrament of matrimony than during spring. And there’s nothing like witnessing a new marriage bloom than holding a spring wedding theme to make this special moment truly magical.
An important consideration when deciding to go with a spring wedding theme is to incorporate garden elements, wildflowers, herbs, fresh fruit and pastel colors into your setting. For instance, at the ceremony, you can have your bride and the bridesmaids wear wreaths or carry bouquets of beautiful wildflowers. On the other hand, the groom as well as the groomsmen can also wear flower boutonnieres too.
Some popular wedding flowers that commonly bloom in spring are daffodils, irises, lilacs and tulips. You can use daisy or wildflower petals as a good substitute to the usual rosebuds scattered as the bride walks down the aisle. Also, consider using butterflies or birdseed instead of a bubble or rice shower after the wedding ceremony.
Moving on to the reception, you can have your guests enjoy appetizers or cocktail at an outside patio. Especially if the weather allows, this location is a great place for your guests to bask in the fresh spring air. Have plenty of fresh fruit as well. You can serve fresh fruit salad or strawberries or any other fruit smothered in chocolate. Aside from fresh fruit, you may also want to offer fruit desserts when serving the wedding cake. Fruit tarts are great choices.
Moreover, play light, soothing music, preferably harp or flute music. When it comes to decorations, put wildflowers in metal buckets or clear vases. You can also mix them with dried or fresh herbs such as rosemary and lavender. Flowers in bowls and floating candles are simple yet excellent additions to your centerpieces. You can do create these additions by yourself by immersing silk flowers like daisies or roses in clear glass bowls with water and then adding flower-shaped floating candles. Light up the candles for stunning centerpieces.
In addition, have wine glass charms shaped like butterflies, daisies or garden tools as spring wedding favors. Attach these to wine glasses at your centerpieces and then note on the place-card at every table setting that these charms are for your wedding guests to keep. You can also put seed packets in tiny terra cotta pots tied with a ribbon, with an instruction tag attached to it, showing guests how to plant the seeds.
These spring wedding theme ideas can help make you and your guests look back at your wedding with fresh and beautiful memories in the years to come.
