Tips to have a beautiful Garden Theme Wedding

A garden wedding ceremony takes a little planning in advance.

Whether you decide to give your garden wedding a theme , or you just decide to have your ceremony at the garden, there are some simple rules that you should follow.

But let’s focus on the ceremony and some ideas for your event.

The Venue

Localizing you wedding venue should take a little planning.
Hotels or venues with lots of greenery make great options.

Also venues that are out of the norm but serve the theme and have a breath taking backdrop for your ceremony, such as botanical gardens and/or state parks or reserves.

Another great option is your own house or a relatives house if you consider it will be big enough for the quantity of guests you will have.

Choosing your garden wedding ceremony spot at a garden wedding can be a tricky task if you are not truly aware of how the garden is set.

Always pay a visit to the venue to know where the shady or bright spots are located at the time of your ceremony.

Is there a big tree that provides shade? That could be the perfect spot for your ceremony.
If not you may decide to set up a trellis or gazebo

Will you be placing chairs for your guests?
How will you locate them?
This are things that you need to think of in advance so you have no surprises when it comes to planning.

The Back Up Plan

Outdoor weddings and Mother nature sometimes don’t get along.

But you are a bride that is submerged in every detail of your wedding.
With this being said, please plan for the worst, which in this type of wedding it could be weather.

Elements like tents, fans, parasols are never a bad thing at outdoors or summer weddings.
They can even become part of your decorations and is always good to have them around.

Remember not all of us react the same way to the same circumstance.
So while you are completely fine with being under the sun for four hours, your little cousin may not be.

And having some type of roofing in case it rains is not a bad idea either.
So think about how your guests and yourself will be able to have some type of shelter if weather is something that they can not deal with for too long.

The ceremony

While having a garden wedding ceremony is one of the most romantic things there are some tips you can follow to make it extra special.

Setting up a platform where the ceremony can take place is a good idea so all of your guests can see when you exchange your vows.

Having a Personalized White Pearl Unity Candle ceremony is a very romantic way to seal your love as well and you can easily include this in your celebration.

Another beautiful and creative idea you can definitely use will be including butterflies or doves release once the ceremony is over.

Also consider a seed throw instead of the traditional rice when you walk the aisle for the first time as husband and wife.

And for your favors go green. Place a Bucket with Seed Favors for your guests to grab and take home.
