Themes inspired by flowers
Summer Flower Themes
Summer is the season of flowers, just pick your favorite and use it's color and/or image to inspire your wedding theme.
The Hawaiian Plumeria
![]() If you love Hawaii, the plumeria is one of the great starting points for a theme |
The plumeria is a beautiful flower which can be found in many different colors. I love this color to the right because it inspired a yellow and silver theme - currently one of my favorite color themes!
If you're going with the Plumeria, it doesn't mean that you have to have a Hawaiian wedding or even use it in your bouquets... though it might be nice to include a couple in your bouquet and maybe in a few as a table decoration in a bowly with floating candles.
Calla Lily
A calla lily wedding theme with matching invites and favors is a simple yet easy to personalize theme. They both make for a really beautiful simple wedding theme that you can really make your own. Both of these flowers inspire a beautiful color scheme of white and green or yellow and brown.
A Garden Wedding
If you're planning a garden wedding, then you make all the flowers your inspiration..... Have fun with your summer favors and adorn your table in pretty flowers and/or other garden symbols like birds or dragonflies. In this case one great favor a great favor would be personalized honey.
Inspired By a Location
Creating a theme based on region is as simple as thinking of the place that most feels like summer for you.
Mediterranean
