“Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking.” When the legendary Miranda Priestly said this famous line in The Devil Wears Prada, she definitely wasn’t talking about weddings. A spring wedding comes at the perfect time of year to highlight pastel colours, gorgeous flowers and sunshine (we just love longer days).
If you are planning a spring wedding, there are so many fabulous ways to draw attention to the season, and choosing your favourite blooms will be high on the list. There are also beautiful colours to look at, decor ideas and food and drink inspiration to really embrace a spring wedding.
Planning a spring wedding and not sure where to start? Take a look at these seasonal ideas to make your day extra special and utterly gorgeous.

Spring wedding colours
We are huge fans of pastels for spring. Opt for the classics, like blush pink and periwinkle blue, or choose something a little more unusual like the fruity tones of lemon and peach, lilac and white or green and grey!

Fresh fruit
Fresh fruit is delicious, so you could incorporate it into your menu or drinks, but it’s also pretty. How about using your favourite citrus fruits in your centrepieces?

Fruity drinks
Serve your favourite fruity drinks. Perhaps a floral cocktail, like a mojito with lots of fresh mint and lime, or an elderflower gin and rosemary cocktail? Don’t forget the Pimm’s, with strawberries, mint and cucumber.

Water station
For those not drinking alcohol, display a fruity water station. Find big vintage style drinks jars with taps, fill them with ice, water and your favourite fruits (lemon, lime and watermelon).
