Seasonal Wedding Ideas
When deciding on how to decorate or what theme to style your wedding to, you can absolutely go with the flow of the season and utilise it for your wedding decor.
Whether it’s spring flowers to brighten up your special day or winter berries that make your wedding decor pop or it’s fall leaves that bring autumn to your venue and summer bouquets that dazzle under the warm sun.
Decorating with the season is not always necessary, maybe you’re hosting your wedding in the changing of the seasons, in which case you’ll likely lean into one more than the other in your decorating style.

Maybe your wedding is in September and you still want to incorporate the last of the summer into your styling or keeping things cozy with an early spring wedding by still utilizing winter decor such as sheepskins and faux fur blankets.
Winter weddings are incredibly romantic, from the cozy blankets to the twinkling lights, it’s truly a magical time to tie the knot. While winter weddings may not be the warmest, they can provide stunning photo opportunities and the decor options are endless, with the opportunity to incorporate Christmas and new year styling into your special day if it’s around those dates.

Let your winter wedding centrepiece do all the talking at the dining table. Layering with winter florals and candlesticks and hurricane glass vases for a warm glow.
Think deep reds, rich shades of green and vibrant metals that not only show of the venue but become a focal point and draw the eye along the table scape. Your guests won’t forget your wedding decor in a hurry with these winter wedding ideas that are showstopping!
Spring florals are a must for any wedding hosted in this beautiful season. Pastels are the way to go and there are so many options. With everything starting to sprout and blossom the opportunity for utilizing an outdoor space as part of your wedding decor becomes more and more possible.

Spring Wedding Centrepieces

Spring wedding centrepieces can be be as minimal as a small vase of flowers at the centre of each table and it will still look stunning and put together thoughtfully. However, you may be looking for something much more vibrant and elegant – maybe using candlesticks along the centre with beautiful bouquets of spring florals. However you choose to decorate, know that both minimalism and maximalism work equally well when styling a spring wedding.
Summer has to be one of the most popular or sought after wedding seasons. With it’s warm weather and abundance of options and venue locations, summer weddings are always going to be a tad easier to plan.
Whether it’s a beach wedding or set somewhere on the coast, or a summer wedding in the countryside, the decor either needs to pop against the landscape or compliment it in a way that highlights the natural surroundings. While summer weddings can be a little pricier, we have compiled a list of 30 Unique Summer Wedding Ideas on a Budget for you to recreate.
Summer wedding decor looks like al fresco dining, dining under the stars and twinkling fairy lights. That’s where the magic is in the dancing lights paired with the vibrant florals in the daylight – a summer wedding truly sparkles. There are never too many flowers at a summer wedding, lining the aisles or made into a table scape, summer bouquets are a must. We love the use of chandeliers like the ones in this beautiful outdoor reception – they look even more stunning after sunset.

Summer wedding centrepieces truly take centre stage at any summer wedding! and they deserve to! Vibrant florals stun in this table setting – we love the use of the taller vases and bouquets with the garland-like florals down the centre, not only does this bring depth and definition to your decor but it also allows guests to chat and see each other.
Trust us when we say that you do not want your decor to stop your guests from chatting at the tables, it completely ruins the vibe.

Modern Mexican weddings are the stuff of dreams. With Mexico’s coastal areas experiencing warm weather throughout the year it’s the perfect place to host your special day in any season.

Fall is one of the most beautiful seasons to tie the knot in. With the changing of the leaves literally transforming the landscape into a completely different color palette often overnight, you don’t want to skip out on thinking about hosting your wedding in the autumnal months.
Think earthy tones paired with vibrant orange and red hues that will warm up your venue in an instant.

Fall wedding decor looks like rustic meeting with autumnal florals. It’s all about balancing out the brighter tones with the muted ones. We love the use of pampas in fall weddings – it’s a great way to add depth to your decor pieces.
Fall wedding centrepieces can be as simple as incorporating mini gourds, squashes and even cabbages into the centre of your table setting. Create height to draw the eye upward with tall candles or keep everything lower to the table surface for a more intimate feel. Test out different styles in your home until you get the feel that you want for your wedding reception.
