Wedding "Theme"

Because the wedding date is in August, and we want to keep the day on the casual side with things to do outside other than dance, we landed on a picnic theme. When I first starting looking for inspiration on the internet, I saw some examples of weddings that actually used picnic blankets for guests instead of tables. Matt quickly nixed that idea, with the compromise that we could have some of our wedding photos taken with a picnic blanket.

But other picnic inspirations will live on. Here are some of the things I am thinking about...

• Colors - watermelon pink, green, and yellow (pic)
• Main flower- gerber daisies
• Food- while still to be chosen and planned, I'm thinking gourmet sandwiches, fruit salad, a lemonade cocktail
• Activities- croquet, horseshoes, badminton, ladder toss, etc.
• Tables- pale green or yellow gingham tablecloths
• Making use in some way, shape or form of- wicker baskets, galvanized steel buckets, and mason jars

I am thinking of creating an "inspiration collage," which I will post on this site if and when I create it.
