Classy Easter-themed Wedding Ideas:

Easter-themed bridesmaid dresses 

Your bridesmaids will look lovely dressed up in stylish vintage tea-party gowns or in mismatched bridesmaid dresses in bright or muted pastels. Choosing bridesmaid dresses in pastel colors with a hint of yellow, blue, pink, or green can create an ethereal wedding look. Pastel bridal party dresses are undeniably romantic for a spring wedding because there are so many exquisitely spring wedding colors to choose from, including petal pink, soft blue, lilac, and mint green. These vibrant yet understated colors can be used for any style of wedding, from a backyard ceremony to a wedding by the sea. Additionally, with so many colors and bodice styles to choose from, there is a pastel dress out there to complement every bridal style. Want to look good in mismatched bridal party attire? The many versatile colors of pastel dresses make them simple to mix and match. Simple silhouettes in a single color will feel polished and timeless for the conventional bride if you want a traditional take on pastel bridal party attire. Smooth slip dresses and simple styles in barely-there blush will complement your contemporary aesthetic if minimalism is more your style. Dresses for the bridal party in shades of sky blue and seafoam green will evoke the tranquility of a beach wedding for the bride planning a destination wedding. Last but not least, fashion-forward brides should experiment with various hues, textures, and prints to achieve that effortless mismatched Easter bridesmaids look because pastel dresses were made to be mixed and matched.

Pastel bridal gowns 

Many brides picture their wedding dresses in the brightest white or the most luxurious ivory. But if you find yourself admiring dresses and feeling that a white color isn't your style, think about choosing a colorful wedding dress. Since pastel wedding dresses are the ideal combination of delicate bridal with vibrant color, we love them for an Easter-themed wedding. While looking for a dress that isn't customarily white might seem a little strange, you should be aware that there are countless pastel bridal gown options available to you. Every style and wedding color scheme has a pastel shade to match it, from backyard wedding dresses that are chic slips to effortlessly elegant short wedding dresses for a seaside affair. Better still? Due to the fact that some pastel wedding gowns aren't overly bridal, you might be able to wear them again.

Host a garden ceremony 

Easter may be too chilly for an outdoor wedding as a whole, but having an outdoor wedding ceremony is a wonderful way to include some nature and Easter wedding details in your day. To host your wedding outside in the spring without being exposed to the elements, look for a wedding venue with a gazebo or rent a transparent tent. Additionally, there are always a lot of choices for a spring outdoor ceremony, including renting a garden or finding a reception venue with an outdoor area. If you have the cover, you can also celebrate by hosting a canape hour for your guests in a garden wedding party style and have your photos taken during that time.

Spring wedding flowers 

Considering that Easter is all about renewal and rejuvenation, your Easter-inspired wedding will fit in well if you use a lot of natural elements, especially spring wedding flowers. Instead of following the greenery trend of plain foliage, choose big blooms and vivid colors for your flowers. When it comes to wedding photo opportunities, you could pick a beautiful flower wall or a hanging floral feature for your guests to enjoy. Whatever it is, concentrating on your spring wedding blooms will enhance the atmosphere of your special day. Our top picks for this time of year's in-season flowers are daisies, roses, proteas, irises, and baby's breath.

Bright pastel wedding color combinations 

We believe Easter weddings should have a springtime feel to them! Therefore, using pastel wedding colors can be a great way to incorporate the Easter wedding theme a little. Easter wedding colors can be introduced with light neutral shades. For instance, to add a hint of Easter, pastel shades of lavender, canary yellow, robin's egg blue, and pink will work best. Naturally, don't do everything at once! You can pair these accent wedding colors with pastel yellows, pinks, blues, and greens which are a lovely way to add the season to your day. This is an option for your wedding party as well as your invitations and decorations. Choose one or two of those tones and combine them with white and cream to create appropriate spring colors. You can experiment with patterns like polka dots, vintage flower motifs, and whimsical stripes for creating a vintage-themed wedding during the spring season. As with any theme, you should be careful to avoid creating any color clashes when combining a few hues. You can create a gorgeous pastel extravaganza by using white to balance out these pastel colors and give your color scheme more room.

Egg-shaped wedding accents 

Who doesn't enjoy a good old Easter egg hunt? It helps to involve everyone and will keep both the adults and kids entertained on your wedding day. Additionally, it's a lovely way to utilize the outdoor space at your wedding location, especially if you are lucky enough to be surrounded by gardens and open space. Egg wedding details are an indispensable part of Easter wedding ideas and can be used in a variety of ways during your wedding. You can also use eggs in other ways to decorate your wedding. Easter egg wedding ideas are customized to fit the season with everything from place cards to table decorations.

Easter reception tree

You can consider a decorative tree if you are considering decorating your reception area for Easter. Who wouldn't love these trendy DIY wedding ideas? You might have seen several gorgeous Easter trees in the various storefronts lighting up for the season. So why not incorporate one of them at your reception? For your spring wedding centerpieces, think about making a variety of Easter trees. Put a few twigs in a vase, pot, or bucket, and affix Easter decorations to the branches. At your wedding venue, these Easter wedding decoration ideas do a great job of setting the mood! Moreover, as a traditional guest book alternative, you could also ask your guests to write brief messages on pieces of paper and hang them from the trees. Additionally, you can use them as a place card display or match them to your wedding's style and color scheme.

Whimsical baskets 

Different kinds of baskets for your reception will blend flawlessly with your overall theme while still adding that touch of Easter, whether you are having a classic or rustic wedding. If you are hosting a rustic wedding, you might decide to use a larger vintage basket filled with baby's breath as one of your table centerpieces. Or, for a more formal affair, give your flower girls carry baskets filled with ribbons and vibrant flowers. You can also experiment with different basket styles. Don't be afraid to look around for the style that best fits your wedding and consider various styling options for your venue.

Easter-inspired wedding cake 

You probably already know how significant the wedding cake is to the overall theme and aesthetic of the event. Your Easter wedding cake is more than just a one-day treat! So, to add an Easter wedding touch to your celebration, pay close attention to how your cake is decorated. Large chocolate eggs are a great alternative to a traditional wedding cake design if you don't want to follow tradition. You can also wow your guests with a showstopping wedding dessert they won't soon forget, whether you decide to include them as standout components of your cake, surprise your guests with miniature treats inside, or have an illusion Faberge cake that is simple to surprise. You can also have two bunnies cuddling as the wedding topper, bunny ears cake topper, or a cluster of tiny eggs as the Easter wedding cake topper. You can infuse spring into your wedding cake if you are getting married during this special season and want to take advantage of everything it has to offer. Go for pastel wedding cakes as a nod to the season. For instance, a three-tiered cake with lots of moss and spring flower accents is an alternative to the standard single-tiered ombre cake with miniature eggs and blooms on top. Select a perfect wedding cake design that serves the purpose of your Easter wedding theme and nods to the season in a variety of pretty and interesting ways. For keeping things easy, you can also opt for a simple carrot wedding cake with cream cheese frosting reminiscent of the season as well as the holiday.

Spring bridal manicure

On your wedding day, your fingers will undoubtedly draw some attention, but don't worry as there is a bridal manicure match for everyone. Do you have a thing for a traditional French manicure? Or are you more of a bright, punk-style lacquer bride? Or jewels, glitter, and decals are more your style? Both bright and muted pastel manicures are a good choice for springtime. The wedding day is no different. If you are a true romantic, you will want to appear just out of a storybook for your Easter wedding. Or if you are a bride who prefers the bohemian wedding style, you might love a whimsical bridal manicure. Similarly, a bride who wants complete glitz and glam will also require a manicure fit for jewel-encrusted hands. Artistic bridal manicures with floral touches are always a good choice for spring weddings.

Easter wedding favors 

Wedding favors are a significant part of the wedding décor because they allow guests to pick and take home items that ultimately enhance the wedding. This is your chance to create your own story! Give small glass jars filled with creme-filled chocolate eggs or bunnies to your guests as a favor to spare them the Easter hunt. You can get macarons in a spring color scheme or make egg-shaped cookies with creamy icing as wedding favors to make it a little more memorable. If you want to get fancier, Easter egg macarons are also a nice alternative. These exquisitely tiny treats will add a hint of Easter to your wedding favors.

Easter wedding dessert table 

We all anticipate a little Easter chocolate! If eating chocolate dessert while wearing a white dress makes you uncomfortable, choosing a dessert bar at your reception as a traditional chocolate bar alternative is a great way to maintain the Easter wedding theme. A jar of edible eggs and some pastel macarons can be delicious reception dessert options that will look lovely and still have a hint of Easter. Even putting hot cross buns in your favorite spring wedding colors on display will give the room a small Easter flair. Setting up a dessert bar at your reception will also be effective in bringing people together to celebrate an Easter-inspired wedding theme. For this, we also think a reception dessert table with a delicious spread of cookies, cupcakes, mousses, and other sweet treats is a great idea, and we know you will too!

Live bunnies and other cute farm animals 

Petting zoo reception ideas are one of the biggest wedding trends of recent times! On your special day, animals can make for some stunning photographs, and who doesn't adore a baby bunny? To sail with this incredibly unique wedding idea, have a pet-inspired wedding photo shoot with bunnies to add an unbelievable amount of cuteness to your wedding photos. Bunnies, chicks, and other suitable animals for a "pet farm" can be kept without raising eyebrows. Without the Easter Bunny making an appearance, no wedding with an Easter theme would be complete. There is no reason why you shouldn't take advantage of the growing popularity of cute animals at weddings for your special day. Given that it's Easter, there's a good chance that kids and family will be present for your special day. So give them something to look forward to and keep them occupied. It's a great idea to hire a petting zoo for your reception that includes young chicks, alpacas, and bunnies to honor the Easter reception theme. Additionally, it will amuse the children and make the adults smile.

The above-mentioned ideas are perfect for including the touch of Easter in your wedding celebrations. From pretty pastel wedding color palettes in various shades of blush pink, lilac gray, peach, mint green, buttercup yellow, ice blue, and rose quartz to the exquisitely feminine lace and embroidered wedding dresses with hints of bright pastels to the blooming beauties of nature like tulips, ranunculus, hyacinths, guelder-rose, lilac, blossom branches, lily of the valley, bluebells and irises, Easter inspired weddings can be a party for the senses for every couple who love all things whimsy and dreamy. Without going overboard with a rabbit-shaped wedding cake, these Easter-inspired wedding details and ideas are all about giving the holiday a subtle nod.
