Planning a summer wedding? This year it’s all about ambiance. Don’t stick with traditional colors and decor, mix it up with these six summer wedding trends for 2017.
- Unique Invitations: Don’t play it safe with a typical black and ivory wedding invitation. Experiment with reverse color schemes and brighter themes to set the tone for your special day. For example, Instead of a bright teal font on a cream colored background, go for cream colored font with a bright teal background.

- Color Pops: Don’t go overboard with color! Pick two bright hues and an accent, in lieu of drowning your reception in color. Rather than multicolored flower arrangements, opt for single colored centerpieces for a more elegant look.
- Relaxed Music: In place of a traditional pianist or string quartet, go with something a little bit more laid-back for cocktail hour and dinner. Book a steel drum player or singer with a ukulele for a romantic summer beach vibe.
- Unusual Centerpieces: Centerpieces tend to be large and overstated, but they don’t have to be. Think outside the box — try using hollowed out watermelons as a container for your flowers for a casual and fun look.
- Flavorful Wedding Cakes: Chocolate and vanilla wedding cakes are a dime a dozen. Choose a citrus inspired cake to add a summer feel to your dessert. Try a lemon, orange, or even key lime flavored wedding cake. Don’t worry, you can use the groom’s cake as a backup vanilla for any guests who may have allergies.
- Wine Slushies: Margaritas are a staple at any summer BBQ, so why have them at your wedding? Create a signature cocktail for the big night, like a delicious frozen wine slushie. Your guests are sure to be in heaven while sipping on the refreshing concoction.
