Tips on Planning a Perfect Spring Wedding
Thinking about planning a spring wedding? There are a lot of decisions to make from venue to flowers to backup plans.
The benefits of planning a spring wedding include the potential for nicer weather, more outdoor venues, and an abundance of seasonal flowers and decorations to choose from. Selecting the perfect venue for your special day is essential to making your event successful. Careful consideration should be given when choosing the venue, from its location and size to the cost and amenities offered. With the right selection, you can create an unforgettable experience that will leave guests raving about your special day for years to come.
Are you familiar with the saying “March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb” or “April showers bring May flowers”? You envisioned a perfect outdoor Spring wedding but are having a slight panic that rain will derail your vision? It is important to ask your venue what their weather-related backup plan is. Here are some questions to consider…
Do they have a separate indoor space?
Will your guests be at their seats for the reception?
Will they need to make use of the cocktail area?
Where will the guests be if they need to flip a space from ceremony to cocktail?
If it is raining but it might stop, at what time will we need to make the final call to move our ceremony?
If it has rained for a few days before, how well does the ceremony site drain?
Creating the perfect color palette for your spring wedding can be an exciting task that requires the perfect balance of complementary hues to capture the joy and beauty of your special day. In making your decisions you should explore a range of colors, create unique color combinations, and ensure that your spring wedding palette is one-of-a-kind!
Choosing the right floral arrangements and decorations for your special event can be an overwhelming task, but with careful consideration to color, scent, and stylistic choices, you can create a beautiful atmosphere that suits the mood of your guests and the occasion.
Incorporating unique touches to make your special day unique and representative to you and your partner is equally as important.
Erin and Joe chose a perfect coral for their spring wedding. They allowed their bridal party to choose their own dresses that best fit their bodies. They chose seasonal flowers to represent the fresh springtime air. The plan for their wedding was to have the ceremony outside, followed by a cocktail hour in the reception space. On their wedding day, the weather was not looking promising - in fact, it was raining for a bit in the afternoon. She knew the backup plan was in the reception space at Geneva Farms, but luckily the rain came and went and the sky cleared up just before her first looks and pictures.
