Lovely in Lilac - Spring 2019 Wedding Inspiration
Spring is in the air and wedding season is about to bloom! And what flower (and smell!) better represents the promise of springtime like the lilac? Sweet and romantic, this gorgeous shade of purple is the perfect choice for your spring wedding. Pair it with a dusty sage or a dove gray and your guests will be taking notes for their own nuptials!
So grab a pair of trimming shears and head to your favorite lilac bush! It's time to get inspired with our favorite ways to include this quintessential floral below!
The Bride
Flowing layers of tulle add such a sweet softness to your bridal gown. Add a delicate lace sleeved shirt on top for a look that is fairy tale gorgeous and oh-so comfortable.
The Groom
A lilac toned bow-tie and pocket square add just the right amount of purple to your soon to be groom's ensemble. While a camel colored suit jacket brings a warmth that emulates the soft rays of springtime sunshine.
The Girls
Lilacs come in different shades of purple and your bridesmaid gowns should be no exception. The variety of hues add depth while the flowing tulle gives a princess-like texture. Trust us. Your girls are definitely going to want to wear these again.
The Guys
Lilac suspenders and matching ties guarantees your groomsmen will be the best dressed dudes at your wedding.
The Bouquet
This is probably an obvious suggestion - but an armful overflowing with lilac blooms is the only way to go where flowers are concerned. Keep their natural greenery intact for added drama and texture.
The Rings
A velvet ring box in the softest of purples will keep your rings cozy until the "I do's".
The Programs
Marrygrams petal fans tied off with a lilac ribbon add a sense of elegance and formality to your nuptials. Keep your guests informed, cool and inspired with our wide variety of wedding day paper options. Shop here!
The Ceremony
Your ceremony will be sweetly scented with piles of lilacs adorning your altar and aisle. Send them home with guests afterwards as a bonus favor!
The Table Decor
Vintage linens and glassware amplify the romance of springtime when nestled between bright blossoms and long taper candles.
The Cocktails
Purple martinis in gold rimmed glasses give a Gatsby vibe to your cocktail table. Float 2 or 3 lilac petals on the top to really complete the look.
The Cake
There's just something so inviting about this ombre ruffle cake. Fill it with a surprise pop of blueberry for color that goes all the way through AND tastes amazing.
The Favors
Swirled lilac and cream macarons are the perfect finishing touch. Send them home with your guests with a Marrygrams favor tag attached to complete the look.
