I think one of the keys to really embracing a morning or afternoon wedding is giving your wedding a cheery, fresh, daytime feel. Using patterns can do that instantly.

You can choose from polka-dots, stripes, gingham, florals, or any other type of print. The possibilities are really endless and there’s a pattern for every personality.

or maybe a bright mix of different patterns- I love these favors wrapped in floral paper! You know- with all the different favor packing that’s out now, I think we’ve forgotten how perfect a gift wrapped in beautiful paper can be. Something to consider definitely…

Some of those may be to casual for you, depending on the style you’re going for. If you still want to have a more formal affair during the day, these might inspire you:

Next up tomorrow, the attire.
