To continue with our warm up wedding ideas post, we wanted to share a local outdoor wedding we planned and decorated this past summer. The couple wanted a warm, casual feel for their guests to enjoy. There were many fun details incorporated into the overall feel of the reception, including the river rocks as place cards and the bug station. Living in Minnesota, you never know when the mosquitoes might carry you away and the couple had plans to dance the night away; that in which they did.
The couple added a pop of color to the cake table using, a tractor that the groom played with while growing up. They also used two antique cake plates from their Grandparents.
The hay bales added extra seating during the cocktail hour and
the pictures of the couple, growing up and dating, on the trees added a fun personal touch.
