Watercolor and calligraphy are two popular wedding trends for spring, this dreamy wedding has been carefully curated with all of the important details to help you create this look yourself. From a stunning watercolor invitation set, to a simple and elegant table setting, unique and trendy macrame chair decor, and even a show stopping battenberg lace parasol, we’re taking you step by step down the aisle at the watercolor floral wedding of your dreams.
Gorgeous Invitations Set the Tone of the Wedding The Garden Party personalized invitation suite is the perfect ensemble for providing guests with a hint of what's to come. Featuring a soft, washed palette of pink with accents in assorted pastels, it's easy to play on any of these colors to match your spring wedding. The calligraphy headings are right on trend, and of course, the entire suite is fully customizable. Add a little shine by wrapping your invites in elegant gold doilies; (we even used them as envelope liners!), and wrap it all up with White Burlette Ribbon.
Stunning and Unique Aisle Decor We created these incredible, but simple to make Macrame Chair Decorations, using Natural Cording and a square knot technique; get the tutorial here.
The bride is sure to enjoy her unforgettable walk down the aisle when adorned with rose petals, and galvanized pails filled with floating candles, water and fresh flowers.
Personalized Details Add Elegance Kraft Petal Cones are also filled with rose petals in shades of pink and lavender, to match the watercolor floral theme, for guests to throw in the air when the happy couple is pronounced as officially married. See our tutorial on how to personalize Watercolor Wedding Petal Cones for an added wow factor.
Add a Metallic for a Wedding That Shines A watercolor floral theme is versatile, it can be kept simple, or add metallic elements, like this Gold Birdcage, for added shimmer and shine. The gold color can be echoed in the flatware, as well as the event decorations, and even the jewelry.
Tables Settings That are Simple, but Elegant The wedding table is set for an elegant and enchanting reception. We started with Gold Chargers, then layered in Elegance Dinner Plates and matching dessert plates. The watercolor theme is set off with the addition of these gorgeous Garden Party Dinner Napkins. Centerpieces were created by placing clusters of Gold Mercury Glass Votive Holders, filled with Battery Operated Votive Candles atop a White Burlap Roll. We then added in Round Glass Vases, filled them halfway with water, and added in handfuls of fragrant blooms of fresh flowers to match the pink and lavender palette. On the cake table, Garden Party Dessert Plates further emphasize the beautiful theme.
Edible Treats in Keeping with Your Theme These Shortcakes with Edible Flowers are extremely delicious and elegant, but are as easy to make as they are eye pleasing! Edible flowers are delicate, and lovely, and impart a soft floral note to store bought shortcakes. The colors emulate the watercolor invitations and wedding colors, a detail guests are sure to appreciate.
The Dazzle is in the Details The watercolor wedding trend is here to stay for the foreseeable future; why not add to the beauty with a few extra details? A Battenberg Lace Parasol is a stunning way to create a little shade for the bride, and makes an incredible photo prop, and keepsake for after the wedding. Flowers in shades of pink, lavender and sage green appear to have been lifted right from the print of the Garden Party invitations.
Final Notes, (Thank You Notes, That Is!) Thank you notes from the Garden Party collection are the perfect way to send a note of gratitude to guests after the big day. Be sure to order extra personalized labels in the same theme, and prolong the beauty of celebrating your wedding day, in an enchanting watercolor theme.
