Invitations

Choose a nice spring motif such as a bird or a peony and print it on the invites. This will wow your guests and remind them of the season. Use a casual, engaging font that reflects the fun of spring. Tie up your invites with ribbons in your wedding colors instead of the normal wrap or belly band.

Color Scheme

If you are tired of seeing the same colors at spring weddings, give yours a refreshing look by pairing pastels with contrasting colors. Pair lime green with lavender, chocolate brown with pink, or sky blue with brown. Choose one or two colors for your spring wedding decorations to make an elegant impression.

Reception

The number of guests will dictate the best venue for your reception. A small room is perfect for a small guest list but can suffocate a large party. On the other hand, a large ballroom can create unflattering echoes for a party of 80 but nicely accommodate 300 people. If your guests love to dance, avoid small restaurants and areas with noise restrictions.

Cake

A tiered white cake covered in flowers spells spring. You can also go for one covered in sugar-dipped cherries. Choose a light and fluffy flavor like strawberry shortcake with pink fondant topped with strawberries. Berries are in season during spring and offer fresh taste and bright color.

Lighting

Bright overhead lights can blind your wedding guests. Dim lights are advisable as they make people look better. Place pillar candles in the middle of your floral centerpieces for dim lighting. Arrange votive candles around the centerpieces for added lighting. You can also use colored light bulbs which soften people’s appearances.

These superb tips can help you to achieve the wedding of your dreams. Send unique invitations, use vibrant spring wedding decorations, and choose the best venue for a day that’s truly unforgettable.
