Are you a Green Thumb? Do you enjoy gardening or visits to the arboretum? Capturing the beauty of the outdoors is a common theme among weddings. Gardens remind us of love and romance, taking us back to novels and tales that set our hearts a-flutter. That’s why I love Vintage Garden Weddings.
Set amongst the backdrop of nature, your event can be set under the stars, or under the morning light. There are so many ways that you can reinforce your Vintage Garden theme, and here are just a few ideas.
– A whimsical Garden cupcake topper, like those found at Lollipop Workshop.
– Give guests a romantic floral handkerchief as their take-home favor. You can find beautiful vintage ones at Sadie Olive, Vintage Nelly, and Artemisia’s Closet.
– Arrange your ceremony programs in a vintage garden cart. You can find carts at Garden Plant Stands and Hobby Lobby.
– A lovely treat for your guests would be Flower Pot Cupcakes. Martha Stewart has a great recipe and tutorial here. I’ve made them before, and believe me – not only will they impress your guests, but they taste delicious!
– Instead of a regular satin ring pillow, have your Ring Bearer carry your rings on a lovely tufted moss ring pillow. You can learn how to make them at this tutorial at Once Wed, or if you aren’t very good at DIY Projects, you can purchase one similar at April Hiler Design.
There’s so many possibilities with this theme. What would you include in a Vintage Garden theme wedding?
