Sunshine, icy drinks, flowers and, did we say sunshine? If you’re a summery soul, an outdoor wedding will be perfect and hosting your wedding in the hot months will be a blast. With so many fun things to incorporate, you can go wild! Here are some sizzling ideas.
Garden games
Let’s be honest, it’s not just the kiddies that love to play in the garden. Adults can have all the fun too. Have some games set up if your venue includes a garden, so folks can get some fresh air between the ceremony and reception. Think crocquet, ring toss, and jumbo Jenga.
Fruity cocktails
If the sun’s out and the temperatures are soaring, there’s nothing nicer than to sip on an ice cold fruity drink. You can have ready made cocktails or even have a station where guests can mix their own.
Live music
Music really does set the vibe and live music creates a relaxed atmosphere. Many local bands are not too expensive, or maybe you have a muso-friend. Of course, you might just want to splurge and hire a professional band, then go for it!
Floral decor
Nothing says ‘summer’ like flowers. Make the most of it by bringing it into the decor. Centre pieces on the tables, bunches behind the chairs and along the pathways will create a paradise look.
Breezy linen
Light, airy materials will add to an overall light and lovely feel. Go for light colours like cream, lavender and peach.
Beach theme
If you have an informal wedding, tropical themes are very in. Go for sunglasses, drinks in coconuts and bare feet. Remember the sunscreen!
Parasols
If you and your guests are going to be in the sun all day, you don’t want to burn. Parasols are the perfect solution. They look classy and provide perfect protection. Remember to add additional shade, like gazebos.
Water features
Stay cool with splashy water features. They’re beautiful and perfect for the hot days to cool down the air.
