Tips for Spring Weddings

Tips for Spring Weddings

Love is in the air every spring, making it the perfect time for a wedding. Just as spring begins life anew, couples can begin their married life with promise and beauty if they marry in spring.

Don’t Count on Mother Nature
Blue skies, fluffy clouds, and balmy breezes are an ideal spring, but that ideal may not happen on your wedding day. Spring brides need to be prepared for those infamous spring showers by planning alternative
wedding locations for outdoor spring celebrations and photos. If an outdoor wedding is preferred, opt for a late spring wedding for more assurance that spring flowers will be in bloom and Mother Nature will be more cooperative.

Embrace the Season
Embrace the beauty of spring by incorporating spring flowers such as lilacs, daffodils, and tulips into your wedding. Pastel pinks, greens, and yellows are popular spring wedding colors, or you can create an intricate spring theme around butterflies or birds.

Taste of Spring
Add a delicate taste of spring to your wedding reception menu by choosing berries or citrus flavors for your wedding cake. Add fresh salads and greens to the menu, and opt for light and fluffy buttercream frosting instead of heavier fondant icings.

Dress for the Weather
Spring weather can be unpredictable and may be cool or warm on your wedding day. Add wraps to the bridesmaid dresses and choose moderate weight fabrics that are suitable for a range of temperatures to ensure a comfortable wedding party.

Happily Ever After Holidays
Have fun with a spring wedding themed around popular holidays. St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, and Earth Day are classic options, but creative couples may prefer a crazy theme for an April Fool’s Day wedding or a western wedding in honor of John Wayne’s birthday on May 26. Lips Appreciation Day on March 16 is perfect for a kissable wedding theme, or add a tropical touch by celebrating Lei Day on May 1.

Spring weddings can be romantic, creative, and memorable, letting any couple spring into their happily ever after during this beautiful season.
