Spring is a great time for making new beginnings especially entering the new phase of life by marrying your beloved. The fresh spring flowers, little rainfall, wonderful pastel shades add a romantic touch to the most significant occasion of your life.

However planning for a spring wedding is different from a summer or winter wedding as different seasons has different requirements. Hence you need to keep the season factor in mind while planning for a spring wedding. Here are steps to help you organize a spring wedding:

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Internet
  • Wedding dress
  • Headpiece
  • Wedding shoes
  • Wedding cake
  • Variety of spring flowers
  • Spring vegetables
  • Spring fruits
  • Basket
  • Pashmina wrap
  • Umbrella
  1. Step 1

    You can have your dream spring wedding in the months of late March, April, May or early June. It is up to you to decide whether you want to have it in the church in a traditional way or you want to have it outdoors with blossoming spring flowers all around.

  2. Step 2

    As far as styles and design of the wedding gown is concerned, go for A-line wedding dress. You can also opt for Tea length gown if you want something trendy to wear rather than traditional stuff. If you want you can incorporate some spring colors in your wedding gown. You can have colorful beads work in light shades or embroidery on the gown.

  3. Step 3

    Since your wedding dress should suit the season in which you are getting married, look for wedding gowns in light, airy fabrics for the spring wedding. You can also choose organza, light silk tulles, chiffon etc.

  4. Step 4

    Now is the time for wedding dress shopping. You can shop for your dream wedding dress from traditional shops or you can also check the huge variety of wedding gowns available at online bridal gowns store. You can easily find a large collection of wedding gowns in a myriad of designs and styles at these online stores and that too at discounted prices

  5. Step 5

    After the wedding dress is finalized, it is time to buy a matching headpiece. The ideal headpiece for a spring wedding would undoubtedly be a flower headpiece. Just make sure that your headpiece complements your elegant yet discounted wedding gown completely.

  6. Step 6

    When it comes to buying shoes, avoid buying satin shoes especially if you are planning to have an outdoor wedding. If you feel comfortable in high heels then you can opt for high heeled shoes. Else go for embellished sling back with low heels as they would be easy on your feet and look as pretty as high heels.

  7. Step 7

    For decoration, sprinkle rose petals on the tables and cover the tables with polka dot colorful fabric. You can put a basket filled with spring flowers in the centre of each table as a centerpiece. The popular spring flowers are anemone, primrose, lilies, hyacinth, tulips, roses, Gerber daisies, daffodils etc.

  8. Step 8

    For a spring wedding, your menu should include the seasonal items. Include fresh vegetables such as peas, carrots, asparagus and fresh fruits such as strawberries, apricots in your menu.

  9. Step 9

    You can be a bit innovative with the wedding cake. Get a carrot cake made from the local bakery and it is as delicious as any other cake. But if you want to stick to the conventional cake then you can add edible spring flowers or primrose petals on the cake.

Tips & Warnings
  • While buying headpiece make certain that it is complementing to the style and color of the wedding gown.
  • Make sure that your wedding shoes are comfortable and fit well.
  • The weather tends to vary, hence don’t forget to carry a pashmina wrap or a stole with you.
  • Remember to carry an umbrella too as it might rain.
