5 Ideas for a Stunning Summer Wedding Theme

When thinking about summer, the first thought is often of clouds floating across a blue sky, green leaves rustling in the soft breeze, and warm sun on your skin. Wedding themes for summer exude these light, warm elements to create the perfect aesthetic and colour scheme for a summer wedding.

Cornflower Blue

Cornflower blue is a bright, positive wedding theme which encapsulates summer and all that comes with it, so here are some ideas to seamlessly thread this gorgeous colour throughout your wedding.

1. Flowers. Cornflowers reflect the sunniest blue sky and can be paired with cream coloured alstroemeria and gypsophila, representing lovely puffy white clouds or freshly laundered linens. Delphiniums, too, exude the warmth of summer skies and can add variety to your bouquet or table arrangements.
2. The Bridal Gown. For the bride, lace and embroidery in her dress can offer a delicate, flowery look and lovely light textures complementing any wedding themes for summer, no matter the colour scheme.
3. Table Linens. The bride’s lace patterns and textures can also be used in the tableware for a consistent, seamless theme. Consider including stripes of cornflower in linen napkins as well to tie in the bouquet arrangement!
4. Décor. Sapphire tones and bright accessories bring highlights to the colour scheme of your venue. You can even do-it-yourself and assemble jam jars of flowers with lace and ribbon decorations for that classic thrown-together summer picnic feel.
5. Attire. The bridesmaids’ dresses can be complemented with a blue sash and cornflower corsages, while the men coordinate their tie and buttonholes with the same sunny blue colour. Flower girls and pageboys will look adorable in their matching cornflower taffeta sashes.

Wedding themes for summer encapsulate the season’s carefree, warm, light and airy feel, and play well with a boho-chic vibe. Whether basing your colour theme off the beautiful blue skies, glowing yellow sun, or the lush greens of foliage in full bloom, The Little Wedding Company can match your colour and theme to perfection, creating a seamless look across every aspect of your wedding!
