When you think of Spring weddings, we’re guessing that the first that comes into your mind are all different sorts of blooming flowers, bursts of warm and vibrant colours, and of course, a re-emergence of life all over. Many wedding planners like the Spring because it’s the season where many flowers bloom naturally, including daisies, lilies, daffodils and tulips. March and April brides typically go for yellow and lavender pastels, as well as eye-pleasing combinations like red and darker shades of pink, as well as pink and green. You can even go for a totally pink look (albeit in different shades) to create a stunning effect.

For themes, you can go for butterflies and cherry blossoms. If you or your partner has Irish ancestry, you can also draw inspiration from St. Paddy’s Day.

Remember that these are just suggestions for themes and colours, so if you plan to do hold a wedding in some exotic destination outside North America, you’ll have to do a lot more work, with more factors to take into account. Although we think the suggestions above are perfect for the Spring months, there’s no reason why they can’t be used during any time of the year.

Yellow, red : excitement, romance.  Warm colors rev us up and get us going.  Using any of these colors let’s your guests know a party is starting!  These colors tend to release emotions.

Black: unifying.  It makes a statement on it’s own, but can be use to tone another color down.  When used on it’s own this color tends to be very sophisticated.
