The Seasonal Bride

If you, like roughly 800,000 other brides in the US this year, want to get married when the sun is shining, the grass is green and the flowers are in bloom, then spring is your thing! This time of the year is synonymous with freshness and new life. What better sentiments to apply to your marriage? Here are some tips and ideas for your spring wedding…

What if it rains?

It’s hard to resist an outdoor ceremony, perhaps in the garden, with white linens, sundresses, and a wreath of flowers on your head. The picture perfect spring wedding…until it rains. Avoid letting spring showers rain on your parade. You can still plan the outdoor ceremony of your dreams. Just have a backup plan in case Mother Nature decides to crash the party. Rent a tent. That way, whatever happens, you’ll be covered.

A refreshing palette

The trend in color this season is lots of it. Brides are opting for vibrant tones and bold hues of red, orange and purple. But for those who still prefer the softer look of pastels, you can modernize those pinks and lavenders by pairing them with contrasting colors. Some hip color combos you’ll see a lot of this season are pink + chocolate brown, lavender + lime green, and sky blue + brown. Coupling pastels with white is another way to update the look. Think classic patterns like stripes, gingham or polka dots for a preppy and fun way to incorporate the color scheme.

Favors that keep on giving

Our hottest favors this spring are Wedding Sprinkle flower garden seeds. Just in time for when the sun starts to shine, and gardening tools, once again, make their appearance. Brides have found the perfect favor in these little tins of seeds. The charming packaging makes them ready-to-go, no hassle gifts. And the best part is they will actually produce something. You can choose from a selection of 3 flower gardens. Easy instructions are included in each tin, and accessories are available, like our mini garden pails which are a perfect fit for the seed favors. Even those who have no green thumb can’t resist these promising wedding favors.
