A season can provide a perfect starting point for your wedding plan. Each season offers a defined look and feel so you won’t be short of inspiration and ideas. Celebrating a season can also allow you to incorporate plenty of natural beauty and colour into your wedding to fit with the date of your choice. Here are some ideas from season to season to help you create a memorable themed wedding.
Spring
Spring is most associated with freshness, revival, birth, early bursts of colour and lush greenery emerging after the cold depths of winter. Rather than bright, bold colours which are most associated with summer, choose pastels and softer shades of green, pink, blue, yellow and purple for a fresh, clean look.
Think cupcakes with pastel icing, lavender ribbons and dusty pink flowers. You could also include Easter in your celebrations with little chick decorations and mini eggs as treats for the children. Seasonal flowers include daffodils, bluebells, irises, cherry blossom and snowdrops.
Summer
Summer is the time for bright colour, heat, carnivals, music and fun. Celebrate the sun with an outdoor wedding surrounded by big bold flowers including vibrant orange and red roses, loud fuchsias, bright daisies, white, pink and purple hydrangeas and yellow sunflowers.
To combat the heat, give your menu a Mediterranean feel which is filled with fresh fruit, salads and fish like salmon and prawns.
Add summery touches to your wedding attire including brightly coloured ties and pocket handkerchiefs, a light, flowing dress in a breathable fabric and flower headbands for bridesmaids and flower girls.
Kick off the party atmosphere with a band on an outdoor stage playing
perfect summery tunes.
Autumn
Autumn weddings include a warm, welcoming palette to reflect the changing weather and turning leaves. Think deep, dark reds, burnt orange, sumptuous browns and navy blues.
Although the weather may be drawing in, it is still nice to have an autumn wedding outside, surrounded by falling leaves. Alternatively, you can hold the wedding inside a grand castle or church with garlands of autumn leaves and flowers.
Have rich fruit cake and tender meats on the menu with warming veg and rich chocolate treats.
Winter
A winter theme can turn a space into a beautiful and elegant occasion with icy silvers, whites, blues and glass.
A vintage lace dress reflects the icy conditions outside for a perfect winter bridal look. Add gem embellishments and a sparkling headband with long, flowing hair for a show-stopping look.
Add frosty touches to glasses and scatter gold and silver fruit in frosted bowls.
Have an icy white cake with frosted flowers and decorations and line the church with potpourri and scented candles.
Supply your guests with indulgent, filling foods for a cold winter’s day including thick soups, stews, rich cake and hot chocolate.
Now that you have decided on a theme and have taken a lot of time and effort to prepare your perfect wedding, you may want to think about purchasing some
cheap wedding insurance to make sure that everything runs smoothly. Wedding insurance gives you the peace of mind that key elements of the wedding are covered including public liability, attire and rings and rearrangements.
