Summer’s free-for-all explosion of blooms is the inspiration for the themes, colors, and of course florals for many a bride. If a particular blossom has struck your fancy this season, why not let that muse inspire something beyond your bridesmaids’ bouquets? Incorporate your favorite flowers into the design of your save-the-dates, wedding invitations, and wedding day stationery for a simple yet creative way to land on an event theme.

Take the idea of a “theme” as far as you’re willing to go. If your taste steers towards the classic and conservative, let your floral inspiration grace just a subtle corner of your wedding invites (as shown below) and perhaps motivate your color choices for bridesmaids’ gowns and a few other hints here and there.

On the other hand, if you’re looking to make a bold statement or to carry your theme throughout your wedding for a solid, unifying effect, let a floral design take center stage. We love to help brides create “signature” designs – ranging from gracious flowers to simple leaves and other botanical elements – that appear on everything from the wedding stationery to place cards, gift bag tags, and dance floor lighting effects.

A simple, well-defined theme and color scheme can significantly aide the bride struggling with narrowing down the limitless choices available when planning a wedding. So even if you don’t consider yourself a “theme person,” consider choosing a lovely summer flower to serve as your inspiration point for selecting all manner of wedding accoutrements.
