| Ideas for Couples in Southwest Washington |
Black Tie Country:
Country does not have to mean farm. It means simple-and simple can be beautiful. Keep the
color palette simple but elegant, keep the food simple but delicious, and make the most of what
the simple country has to offer.
~Natural decorations, buffet style dinner, white lighting, simplified color palette.
Summer:
Let your guests dress up and then send them outdoors. There is something charming about
being outdoors all dressed up. Why note light the way with simple bag luminaries to an open
fields surrounded by trees. Make use of the natural beauty as a backdrop. Time your nuptials
just before dusk and let a beautiful sunset start off the festivities. Have your reception
surrounded by trees and light them up with simple white lights. Include a white canopy style tent
for protection and seating. Then surround a dance floor under the stars with lighted torches to
make it softly romantic. A buffet style dinner keeps it simple.
~As a final well wish, why not arrange a firework display as a grand finale.
Fall:
Bring the country in and keep out the cold. Simple arrangements of beautiful fall colored leaves
and pumpkins. Light your pathways or tables with pumpkins that have your initials carved into
them and decorate with symbols of the season’s bounty such as wheat bundles or colorful
gourds.
~A simple color palette of orange, green, and cream will charm your guest and not over whelm.
Desserts:
Think of gleaming frosted cupcakes and pretty pastel petite-fours. Soft colors and rich chocolate
browns are the mark of the day to start a married life that’s sweet.
~Color palette of soft pastels and deep chocolate browns, softly scented flowers, dessert bar
and champagne
Springtime and anytime:
Soft pastels are a springtime specialty but can be softly elegant anytime of year and are perfect
for a daytime wedding. Try choosing sweetly scented flowers for arrangement and bouquets to
compliment your theme. Decorations of fluffy tulle and fresh flowers make the day all the
sweeter. For refreshments offer some champagne, sparkling wine, or cider. Include an
assortment of desert, from light angle food trifle to deep chocolate éclairs, so there is
something for everyone.
Beach:
Beaches aren’t just for bon fires and weenie roast. A sea side wedding can be beautiful and
romantic. The ocean and beach are the perfect backdrop for a casual summer wedding. Guide
your guest to the spot with poles decorated with richly colored summer flowers and ribbons.
Seating can be as casual as blankets on the sand or as formal as chairs on risers. Let the
sound of the waves greet your guest instead of fussy music. After the vows, keep the party going
by having the reception right on the beach. A good old fashioned BBQ or Sea’s bounty feast of
salmon and crabs are ideal. Entertain your guest young and old by having a beach combing
contest to find treasures you have hidden in the sand. Then as the sun sets light a bon fire,
start the music, and let the party go on into the night.
~Casual, richly colored flowers and decorations, fun filled event for you and your guests
