🌿 Happy 4/20! While some are celebrating today with a different kind of green, let’s talk about the kind that can transform your wedding! 💚 That’s right, let’s talk about greenery.

Here are 5 delightful ways to sprinkle some greenery into your big day!

🍃Lush Bouquets and Centerpieces: Use greenery like eucalyptus, ferns, or ivy to create lush, voluminous bouquets for the bride and bridesmaids. Incorporate greenery into centerpieces on reception tables for a fresh and natural look.

🍃 Greenery Backdrops: Create stunning photo backdrops using greenery. This could be a wall covered in ivy, a romantic arch adorned with ferns, or even a hanging installation of eucalyptus branches.

🍃 Table Runners and Place Settings: Instead of traditional fabric runners, opt for greenery table runners. Use leaves or vines to adorn the table, weaving in candles or small floral arrangements. Tie napkins with sprigs of herbs or small green leaves for an elegant touch.

🍃 Greenery Garlands: Adorn stair railings, banisters, or even the backs of chairs with greenery garlands. These can add a touch of natural beauty and elegance to any venue.

🍃 Botanical Accents: Incorporate greenery into other wedding details like invitations, cake decorations, and even attire. For example, use botanical illustrations on stationery, decorate the wedding cake with fresh leaves or flowers, or add green accents to the groom’s boutonniere.

These ways will work their magic to weave a delightful green theme into your wedding, bringing a breath of fresh air and natural beauty to your celebration!
