This past weekend, I went to a Hot Air Balloon Festival with my husband and some friends. There’s something so fun and whimsical and carefree about hot air balloons. I thought it would be a lovely theme for a wedding because they both remind me of lifting off and starting a new life together.
When I think of of hot air balloons, the colors that come to mind are the pastel blues of the changing sky, the peaches and purples that the sky changes to as the sun sets, and then soft green to represent the fields that the balloons float over. Nothing too dark, all soft playful colors to give your guests that carefree, playful feeling when they come to your wedding.
Photographers from One Love Photo captured a wedding where the flower girl held a balloon in lieu of flowers – don’t you think that’s the perfect way to capture the hot air balloon theme into a wedding?
Another way to carry across this theme are with these lovely Hot Air Balloon save the dates from Go Go Snap. I also adore these hot air cupcake favors dreamed up by Little Lovely, don’t you? Along with the cupcake favors, another way to bring hot air balloons to the party are these vintage-inspired toys by Mookie Gifts.
Lastly, to incorporate the theme into your attire, or even the bridesmaids outfits, check out these GORGEOUS hot-air balloon pendants by Margrietje Treasure – the hand detailing on these are amazing!
I am totally in love with this theme! I need to keep this in mind for when Brian and I have our vow renewal somewhere down the line.
