Keep Guests Refreshed at Your Summer Wedding

Summer is here and so are summer weddings! If you're planning a summer wedding, you'll want to keep your guests refreshed.

Keeping guests refreshed can help everyone enjoy your wedding much more. Summer in Philadelphia can be very hot, and some of your guests might not be prepared for the temperatures here. If you're planning on having all or part of your wedding outdoors, the heat can quickly become too much for elderly guests and babies.

The best way to beat the heat is by offering shade and drinks throughout your wedding day. A tent can be a great addition to an outdoor ceremony, or offer guests a selection of parasols for individual shade.

When it comes to drinks, make sure you offer plenty of water. Infused waters, lemonade, and iced tea are all great for keeping guests refreshed while offering plenty of flavor and even some color.

Spring and Summer Wedding Reception Themes

Spring is here, and summer is just around the corner, so what better time than now to look at some of the fabulous wedding reception themes that are perfect for the warmer weather seasons.

Butterflies

With beautiful colors, delicate patterns, and a sense of natural whimsy, butterflies are the basis of a wonderful wedding theme. Butterfly patterns can be dotted throughout your decor, and even feature in your bridal accessories. Some brides are also using nature itself, opting for a butterfly release in place of the outdated rice toss.

English Garden Tea Party

Silver tea service, fragrant flowers, and bite-size treats make up this timeless wedding theme. For a fun twist, bring in a bit of Alice in Wonderland to the theme with nods to the Mad Hatter’s famous tea party. Either way, it is a perfect theme for an elegant but casual spring wedding.

Vintage Glamor

Vintage themes have been popular for a while now, and they are holding strong throughout this year. Give the theme a glamorous edge with crystal-laced centerpieces, lighting features, and cake decorations. Signature cocktails made with a bit of glitz are an excellent addition, too.

Any theme requires a fantastic wedding venue. If you’re looking for one of Pennsylvania’s best wedding venues, give us a call to find out what we can offer you for your wedding day.
