Round Up Some Western Wedding Theme Ideas
The modern bride can choose from many wedding themes but
arguably the most fun is the western wedding. The bride to be
can have this type of wedding any time of year. Planning a
western wedding involves great decorations, unique clothing and
party favors that reflect the theme.
A fun western wedding theme idea is the barbeque and hayride.
The planning involves finding the appropriate location to hold a
barbeque and the land to have a nice hayride. If the bride
doesn’t already live in a rural area she can usually find a
party barn that rents out their facilities on the outskirts of
town or use a park or backyard.
The chosen location can be decorated with bales of hay or straw
that can serve as temporary seating around the dance floor.
Don’t forget to drape some gingham tablecloths across a few of
the bales so that your guests can sit on them comfortably
without fear of getting poked.
Another western wedding theme idea is the oak archway decorated
with mini white lights, chili pepper lights, straw bales,
flowers and gingham curtains tied with twine. This will make a
nice area to take photos for the wedding party and guests.
Western wedding clothing can be traditional or relaxed.
Traditional ideas for the bride include wearing a lace gown with
light colored western boots or even a specially designed gingham
or calico dress for the occasion. Men can choose long dress
coats in black with straight leg pants and western boots or
choose a denim outfit complete with leather chaps and a cowboy
hat.
The bride can also make her wedding cake part of the western
wedding theme idea. Cake toppers with a cowboy roping his
cowgirl or a couple perched atop an old fashioned covered wagon
will make an interesting conversation piece at your reception.
If a traditional wedding cake isn’t western enough, consider
having lots of strawberry shortcake instead.
Decorating for the western wedding theme idea includes using
western tack such as saddles, harnesses, lassos and plenty
gingham material. Tables can be decorated with fresh flowers
that are typically found in the southwest or have that western
flavor.
Geraniums look great with this western wedding theme if you are
decorating in red and white. If you choose yellow be sure to
include straw flowers, sunflowers, red poppies, carnations and
yellow roses. If you decorate with a denim theme any flower
combination will work.
Special music is required for the western wedding theme idea. If
you are unsure what to choose, hire a D.J. familiar with western
music and special requests. You might also want to hire someone
who can teach a few line dance moves for your guests. For a
special touch hire a western band to play for your guests.
Party favors can reflect the western wedding theme idea and can
include boxes in the shape of cowboy hats or boots filled with
candies and small gifts for your guests. You can also tie gifts
in bandanas or lace hankies, fill small tin buckets with
chocolates or fill mason jars with goodies and tie with a
ribbon.
A great western wedding theme idea is the hayride and bonfire.
Top off your special day with a hayride furnished with plenty of
hay bales and comfortable blankets. Conclude the hayride with a
bonfire for your guests to cuddle around and reflect on the
day’s events with marshmallow roasting and making s’mores. Your
western wedding will be an event that the guests will remember
fondly for a long time.
