Invitations

Let your invitations reveal the beginning of your butterfly theme to your guests.

Use butterfly shaped invitations.

Have butterfly shaped confetti on the inside of the envelope.

Stick butterflies on/in the invitations

Use different breeds of butterflies in an array of different colors

Flowers

Use vibrant spring time flowers that fit your color scheme.

Find flowers that naturally attract butterflies in honor of them.

Use potted butterfly bushes that you or your guests can replant later at home.

Decorations

Fill the room with butterfly cutouts and balloons.

Have real butterflies in glass centerpieces

Find butterfly themed tablecloths, napkins and cutlery.

Use butterfly figurines for centerpieces.

Instead of having guests throw rice at the end of the ceremony, have a butterfly release for an added special effect.

Food

Food at the reception should be light springtime type meal.

Fruit and vegetable dishes are nice and light for spring.

For meat, use chicken and maybe some fish dishes.

With it being warm out people will not feel like eating a heavy meal like they would in the winter months.

Wedding Cake
