Midsummer Wedding Theme
A midsummer wedding theme can be a great way to implement the beauty
that summer has to offer into your big day! Colors such as yellow,
pink, pale green, lilac, and other cool pastel shades, as well as
lots of flowers combine to make your midsummer wedding magical!
Location
Outdoors! Have your ceremony performed under a flower-covered altar
or in a beautiful garden.
Invites
Invitations can feature such midsummer themes as flowers,
butterflies, and even fairies. Implement summery colors such as
grass green, yellow, pink and even your favorite pale pastel shades.
Decor
Think flowers, flowers and more flowers. Butterflies can also be
great ways to tie summer into your wedding decor.
Flowers
Roses are perfect flowers for your midsummer wedding. Or, take
advantage of all the various blooms that are at their most radiant
in summer such as sunflowers, daisies, baby's breath and calla
lilies, to name a few. Your florist can help you create a gorgeous,
colorful summer bouquet.
Brides Attire
Brides can go strapless, and even short, for a midsummer wedding
theme. Try open-toed sandals and wear flowers in your hair. Wear
your hair up to stay cool and evoke a casual yet romantic mood.
Grooms Attire
Match grooms accessories such as ties, cummerbunds, hankies and
corsages to the pastel shades of your flowers and accessories.
Catering
Have your wedding cake created in summery pastel shades. Offer
guests lots of chilled, fresh fruits such as watermelon and berries.
Go for light fare such as salmon or grilled chicken. Serve mint
juleps and frosty sherbet punch.
Favors
Cute little handheld fans are great favours for your midsummer
wedding. Miniature jars of bubbles are traditional yet perfect for
midsummer weddings to add a whimsical flair.
Ideas
Bridesmaids and flower girls can look fresh and summery in floral
print dresses or pastel shades in fabrics such as silk and linen.
Host an ice cream bar to keep kids of all ages cool and happy in the
summer sun!
