Spring is known as a time of growth, especially when it comes to nature. Flowers are blooming, grass is growing, and skies are blue once again.

2. Incorporate Spring Flowers
Spring is the in-season for plenty of stunning new blooms and other flowers that will be fresh, lush, and affordable. Tuck spring flowers throughout your decor into bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, and more for a connected design element that fully leans into the magic of the spring season.
3. Consider Hosting Outside
After a long winter, odds are both you and your guests are itching to get outside. An outdoor ceremony and reception can really add some life into your big day! The spring sun and fresh breeze will feel so refreshing and help your veil and train float in an ethereal way as you walk down the aisle.
4. Have a Rain Plan Just In Case
Rain can pop up at any given time during a spring fling, and as any wedding planner will tell you, having a rain plan in the picture is a good idea. However, rain can make for some fun pictures, so consider having some cute umbrellas or ponchos on tap in case the clouds do open up!

Spring is a time of playing outside and falling in love with nature again, so for a send off as brides and grooms head off to their dream honeymoon, consider incorporating a bubble tribute.

When you’re planning your honeymoon trip, think about places that might be even prettier in the spring season! Beaches or Caribbean islands are usually popular during spring break, but any place with lots of water, warm weather, and flowers or natural blooms would be a lovely getaway.
