Have you got a wedding soon or planning for a May wedding next year? If you haven’t yet thought about your flowers or colour theme then here are a few ideas for you.
How about incorporating the symbols that represent the month your getting married, into your theme?
For example, the birthstone for May is Emerald. A gorgeous green that represents success and love. It has a beautiful description suited to what would be a beautiful wedding. You can have a natural setting with accents of emerald and flowers to match. The Crataegus monogyna and lily of the valley also represent May. They are both naturally white in colour with hints of green from the leaves, which will work well with the colour emerald. The flowers could be used for your bouquet or for your table decorations. Remember to keep your decorations simple and either low or above head height so people can mingle across the table.
May has two zodiac signs representing its month. They are Taurus (April 20 – May 20) and Gemini (May 21 – June 20). You could use these as the little details within your theme. Keeping the detail simple makes for an elegant wedding. You could have the symbol printed on place cards around the table or you could find a charm of the symbol and have them within your bouquet or as part of your table decorations.
There are endless colours, themes and ideas when it comes to a wedding. Who knew the month of May could help with a wedding theme! Hope these ideas have helped you to finalise the detail of your special day.
