The snow is melting, the flowers are blooming and the wedding trends are changing in Canada, too! If you’re looking for a few fun spring wedding ideas, we’re here to help. From floral wedding stationery to bright bouquets, there are plenty of ways to embrace this season’s vibes with your wedding decor, food, attire and more.

Here are 25 of our favourite spring wedding ideas.

Floral Stationery

Give a nod to the blossoming flowers with your save the date cards, wedding invitations, menus and more!

Umbrellas

You know what they say, “April showers bring May flowers”!

Rain Boots

Speaking of rain, you may want to ditch the sky-high stilettos or shiny oxfords in favour of a pair of rubber boots for your spring wedding (if only for your walks to and from the venue).

Greenhouse Venue

Your garden may not be in full bloom, but greenhouses boast beautiful flowers year round. Embrace the transparent wedding decor trend and host your ceremony, reception or both in a conservatory or greenhouse wedding venue and you won’t even need to visit a florist.

Tulip Centrepieces

Tulips are the flower of spring, why not show them off in your wedding centerpieces and other arrangements?

Paper Flower Decorations

Want to give your big day even more flower power? Add some paper flowers around your venue! Pro tip: this spring wedding idea is super easy to DIY, if you’re trying to save some $$$.

Healthy Entrees

If you’ve spent the winter months indulging in carby comfort foods like mac ‘n’ cheese and pizza - no shame in that game! - you might want to go with an entree that lines up with your “health is wealth” New Years resolution for your spring wedding menu.

Semi-Naked Cake

Just like you, your cake probably isn’t ready to shed all its layers until summer - but it could lose a few! Instead of going for a full-blown naked wedding cake, embrace the semi-naked look for your reception’s star confection.

Donut Bar

Pastel Bridesmaid Dresses

Shawls
