Picnic Wedding Ideas

Picnic wedding ideas – the perfect way to celebrate your wedding day! The beauty of the picnic themed event is that you can be as pared back or as styled as you want it to be. The natural surroundings will give you an immediate setting. How much you add to it with extra flair is up to you!

As with every ‘look’, the trick to having a pulled together feel is finding that key element. What says ‘relaxed picnic’ and how can you use it throughout your day? From the invitations to the thank you gifts you can incorporate picnic styling. Red and white gingham has an obvious picnic flavour. This colour scheme is vibrant and fun on a background of green foliage. Tweak the theme by keeping the gingham and changing the colour to taste if red isn’t your colour.

Keeping things more natural with a palette of hessian, kraft paper and white is a great base for picnic wedding ideas. This will also enhance the natural setting of your picnic event. Likewise, it will maintain the home made flavour of the picnic theme.

Using a tree to create the ‘room’ of your event is an easy way to define the space. Adding paper lanterns, bunting or lights if your event will go into the night will give the space festive glow. Laying out picnic blankets will also define the space beautifully.

Picnic wedding idea hot tips

  • DO make contact with the local authority to check whether you need a permit to hold an event at your chosen location.
  • REMEMBER to make sure you have a plan B that you can move to as seamlessly as possible in the event of bad weather.
  • CONSIDER the logistics – what power you might need, if any, and how you can have that on hand? Are there amenities close by? Is there enough shade? Have insect repellant, suncream and parasols available.
  • DON’T forget those guests that may not like to or are unable to sit on the ground. Create a seating space for them.
