Decoration and Gift Ideas For Summer Outdoor Weddings

Summer wedding season is nearly upon us. Whether you are planning an outdoor wedding and looking for some wedding decoration inspiration or on the hunt for a perfect wedding gift, I have got lots of ideas for you.

 

Weddings are such a special time and something you want to remember forever! When I got married we actually had 2 small weddings; an Indian function at my husband Vik’s home and then a civil ceremony at a restaurant followed by karaoke!

To make your wedding extra special, how about personalised fairy lights? My personalised fairy lights are perfect for summer outdoor weddings as they are handcrafted and work well with neutral colour schemes. I can also personalise all my lights in the colours of your wedding. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you would like to discuss bespoke lights.

 

String Fairy Lights

 

I have several different types of string fairy lights. These are great for decorating tables, putting in jars for centrepieces or coiling around sticks. For more ideas about how to decorate with fairy lights see my previous blog here

 

Gold Leaf Fairy Lights

Delicately spun on a traditional spinning wheel, this handmade string of metallic leaf fairy lights is decorated with shimmering metallic leaves.

 

Ideal as a fairy light centrepiece in the middle of a table, the lights bring a touch of handmade sparkle to a celebration such as a wedding. Entwine carefully amongst glasses, knives and forks or coil up into a focal point inside a glass vase.

Fairy Lights Monstera Leaf Garland

 

Right on trend for all things green and lush, this tropical leaf garland with fairy lights adds a quirky touch to table decorations.

 

The light string itself is hand-spun on a traditional spinning wheel, combined with pink and gold threads. With added fabric monstera leaves, this is foliage that feels like fun.

Spring Bud Fairy Light String

 

If you want to add a touch of colour my spring bud fairy lights add some foliage and sparkle to any wedding or event. Available in soft white and barely blush if you are going more neutral but also yellow and lilac if you want something more vibrant.

Fairy Light Wreaths

The following fairy light wreaths would be great for wedding decorations but also would make brilliant wedding gifts that can be treasured for years to come by the happy couple.

 

Fairy Light Heart Wreath

 

Fill a room with light and love with this fairy light heart wreath, hand-spun with delicate pom poms. 

 

A beautiful wedding decoration or gift, you can choose from a wide selection of colours for the pom poms.

 

Fairy Light Botanical Heart Wedding Decoration

 

My green leaf fairy light hearts are equally stunning when lit or unlit and they look great in a living room, as wedding decor or in a bedroom.  The delicate fairy lights give off a beautiful soft glow when lit. Optional personalisation of up to 8 letters.

Every light wreath is hand wrapped with fairy lights which are hand spun with fabric leaves, soft pink and fine metallic threads.  Powered by a mini battery pack so an ideal versatile decoration.

 

Personalised Memorable Date Fairy Lights

 

A beautiful wedding gift to commemorate the special date. A thoughtful and unique wedding, valentines or birthday present. Handmade and available in a variety of colours.
