Delicate Garden Theme Weddings

Garden theme weddings are a beautiful and magical way to celebrate. For the romantic at heart, a garden wedding is perfect. Garden theme weddings are very feminine and flowery. They are wonderful for a bride who cherishes just being a woman. Using greenery, flowers, and tulle, anyone can create the perfect garden theme wedding.

Although the wedding is located in a garden full of decorative plants and greenery, the bride should also include her own preferences in the decor. A garden that only sparkles in the shade of green is dull. Adding flowers such as roses, daisies, pansies, and petunias can brighten up a garden area that may be without much color. A great addition to a garden theme wedding is gingham print. Pink, yellow, or lavender gingham ribbon can be used on flower arrangements or in bouquets.

Tulle should definitely be included in a garden theme wedding. Brides can use it everywhere to create a romantic vibe. By draping it from the trees or ceilings the bride can create a romantic wedding scene. It can also be used in conjunction with greenery and white strings of lights to intensify its effect.

If you want a garden theme wedding but are not having the ceremony in a garden, prepare the location with an abundance of greenery. Potted plants and potted flowers can brighten up the location as well. By canvassing the entire area in green, your guests will at least feel as if they are in a garden.

Wedding accessories can be easily tied into the garden theme. One idea is to design programs in the shape of a flower. This is an easy and creative way to incorporate the theme. Guests can also toss flower petals at the bride and groom upon their exit of the ceremony. Cones can be made and tied to each seat full of flower petals for guests to use.

Music in a garden theme wedding should be light and whimsical. For a more formal wedding, a small orchestra could be hired. For a simple wedding, the couple can use a light pianist or a violinist. A beautiful idea for music in a garden theme is a harp player. The sound of a harp truly captures the delicate feel of a garden wedding.

To fit with the theme, the bride’s dress should be romantic and flowing. It should not be fussy. The bride can choose to wear a simple headpiece or veil. Many garden brides choose to forgo both and opt for basic hair instead. The attire for the men should be simple and include suits in light colors. Ties can be optional, however tuxedos would be too formal for a garden theme wedding.

The reception of a garden theme wedding should mimic a tea party. The food should be beautifully simple. Small sandwiches, croissants, green salads, pasta salads, wine and sparkling juices are great items to include. Edible flowers can be used to dress up the dishes. Make sure your guests know they are edible however. White garden tables and chairs made of iron are ideal for the guests to relax in at the reception.

Keeping the plans simple and delicate will make a garden theme wedding a memorable event. Simplicity of decor is key for success with this theme. Using the beauty of greenery and flowers, the bride can create the perfect garden theme wedding without hassle.
