Spring and Summer Wedding Ideas for Your Reception

Are you looking for some new unique ideas for your spring or summer wedding? Most weddings have a variety of ideas but they are all basically the same things in every wedding. They offer parting gifts to your guests; we have all seen them in the bridal magazines. Expensive little gifts with the bride and grooms name printed on them; two peas in a pod etc. Some couples also include a dessert or cookie table in addition to your wedding cake. These additions to your wedding can tbe time comsuming and costly.

If you are planning on having a spring/summer wedding, you might want to have a garden or beach wedding. So if you are looking for a new idea or something to spin off of and turn into something of your own, I hope these ideas help. After you choose your theme or wedding colors, you are probably thinking about how you want your wedding reception set up. These ideas work indoors or outdoors, whatever you prefer for your reception. Instead of having an extra cost for gifts and an extra dessert besides the wedding cake, you can offer a candy table. This has many benefits; you save on adding extra costs for deserts/pastries, on expensive parting gifts that just get thrown away, it also adds a fun, unique, and colorful touch to your reception that everyone will be talking about. You would coordinate these colors to your wedding colors. You should also choose a variety of candies with different textures, sizes and shades of your wedding colors. A few types that are great are jellybeans, hard candies or lollipops. These will do well if you choose to have your event outdoors. You do not want any of your candies melting and making a mess. Otherwise if your reception is indoors, you have options with m&m's and other candies that do well in cooler temperatures.
