No matter what time of the year you choose to get married or what the weather might be outside, there is no reason that you can not plan a wedding that is both appropriate and beautiful! It has long been believed that the spring is the best season to have a wedding but that is no longer the case. In this series of blogs, we will bring you tips and ideas from flower choices to menu selections for weddings for all seasons.
Let’s start with spring since that still tends to be the most popular month for weddings. Because flowers bloom in spring, bright and vivid colors, such as purple and lime green, are always popular options. If done the correct way, bright colors will give your wedding a wonderful spring-time feel.
Flowers can make or break the look and feel of a wedding so for a spring-time wedding, try irises, calla lilies and freesias. Create a centerpiece using these long-stemmed flowers and bunch them close together. This gives the centerpiece a very natural look, as if the flowers were picked straight from the ground. To offset the bright-colored flowers, try white table linens and glass tableware with either plaid or polka-dot fabric mixed in for fun.
Menu selections are very important in order to keep your guests happy. For spring weddings, lighter menu selections are ideal. Maybe consider a Watercress Salad followed by Lobster or Lamb Chops for the main course. Raspberry Crème Brulee is a great dessert choice in addition to your wedding cake.
Spring weddings allow for the most playful options for your big day. Don’t be afraid to try the bright colors and fabrics. They will be sure to put both you and your guests in a great mood!
