Summer Wedding Inspiration

As we mentioned, this is our final summer wedding season, and we can't wait to enjoy every beautiful detail. To kick off the upcoming summer weddings, we thought it would be fun to share with you some of our favorite summer wedding details from the last few years. Fresh berries, scrumptious cupcakes, and colorful flowers - can't you practically feel the summer sun on your face?

Caroline and Jamie had the perfect look for a summer wedding - a light colored suit and tie for the groom, and a soft lace gown for the bride.  Their bridesmaids (below) carried through the theme, with soft lace pastel dresses, paired with beautiful colorful bouquets.

Vibrant colors look fantastic for summer weddings in details from bridesmaid dresses to pennant flags to flowers. Don't be shy about mixing and matching bright colors! The trick to making it work is to choose different colors with equal intensity.

These bright summer centerpieces with orange slices have been a popular wedding flower pin on Pinterest.

Roses are not only a timeless wedding flower, they are the flower for the month of June. They also fare well in the heat, making them a favorite for summer brides. Hydrangeas are a natural complement, but aren't the tiny succulents also a nice surprise?

We loved every detail of Sarah and Tay's wedding, from the gingham tablecloths to the bright mixed bouquets in eclectic vases to the assorted vintage chairs.

Fresh fruit, berry and lemonade flavored cupcakes, and ice cold drinks are all on the menu for summer wedding receptions.

Even wedding favors can take on a fun summery theme. They can be as simple as baskets of ripe summer peaches or have a cute motif like old-fashioned glass bottles of Coca-Cola with bags of popcorn.

Last, but not least, what would a summer wedding be without lawn games? From oversized Jenga to monogrammed cornhole boards, outdoor games are always a fun addition to a summer celebration.
