Butterfly Wedding Themes | Fluttery Decor For a Whimsical Marriage Ceremony

For the ceremonial part of your wedding day, you can easily incorporate butterflies into the theme of your special day. Butterfly wedding accessory collections come in a variety of colors including white, pastel blue, pretty pink, soft green and pastel lavender. A whimsical flower girl basket for carrying rose petals down the aisle; a ring bearer pillow to carry the precious wedding bands; the slightly naughty butterfly garter for the bride to wear on her wedding day or to toss at the wedding reception. To remember the ceremony, a butterfly theme guest signing book and fancy satin wrapped pen set are also available in your favorite butterfly themed colours. In written form, the traditional wedding bulletin or program can be printed on butterfly stationary cards for an elegant touch that ties the whole theme together.

Of course, one of the ultimate special touches for a butterfly theme wedding is to have real, live butterflies released right after the bride and groom exchange wedding vows. A really nice touch is to give everyone at the wedding ceremony their own special butterfly box and have everyone release a butterfly at the same time. This can be a nice alternative to throwing rice or blowing bubbles as the bride and groom walk down the aisle as newly pronounced husband and wife. A few tips if you choose to do this: Butterflies will only fly when the temperature is above 55 degrees and preferably sunny. If the weather is very cold or very hot, the butterflies may not take flight at your wedding. Naturally, this means that for night and candlelit weddings, butterflies will probably not leave their little box.
