Fishing Theme Wedding
Fishing Theme Wedding Ideas
Are you looking for a wedding theme with an outdoor nature
appeal? Maybe you should consider a wedding with a fishing theme.
Outdoorsmen and women will love planning their wedding set to this
personalized theme.
A fishing theme wedding is an original way to allow the wedding
couple to share their hobby and their love of nature with their
guests. Although this theme is not very feminine, it can still be
done beautifully. After all, what is more beautiful than the nature
surrounding us?
Couples planning a fishing theme wedding can start by choosing a
theme related ceremony location. A good idea is to rent a sporting
resort where you can get married and have the reception on the same
property.
For a more romantic ceremony, consider getting married lakeside. A
wedding by the lake is a beautiful way to add elegance to a fishing
theme wedding. For fishermen and women who also love boating,
getting married on a huge boat might be a good plan. Unless the boat
is enormous, guests will have to stay at shore for the actual
ceremony however.
Wedding invitations are a huge part of a themed wedding. The
invitation sets the theme, gives the guests an idea of appropriate
attire, and allows them a sneak peek at the festivities. The more
original and exciting the wedding invitation, the more likely the
guest will attend.
A great idea for a neat fishing invitation is the miniature tackle
box invite. These tiny tackle boxes can be purchased in bulk.
Inside, the bride and groom can add a mini scrolled invitation. The
invitations will have to be boxed and shipped, but it is worth the
extra cost. Boxed invitations are not likely to be accidentally
tossed out or lost in the mail, and the recipients will love opening
the surprise.
After choosing a location and invitation for the fishing theme
wedding, the couple should begin to think about decor. Wedding decor
for an outdoor fishing wedding is minimal. If the wedding is by a
lake, the bride and groom might choose to use a wedding arch to
highlight the ceremony area. Fold up chairs can also be used for
seating areas for the guests. Each chair can be decorated with wide
ribbon tied at its back. It is fun to include mini fishing poles or
decorative fish hanging from the ribbon as well.
Most of the wedding decoration for this theme is used for the
reception. A fishing theme wedding should have a reception with a
Southern seafood restaurant style. This style looks exactly like
what you might find at a crawfish restaurant in Louisiana.
To capture the spirit of the fishing theme, the couple should use
fishing net all over the walls. By draping the net, the reception
location immediately takes on the theme. Faux fish and lobsters can
be added to the net for a more complete look. Adding bamboo fishing
poles around the area is also a great idea. Oars are also easy to
set around for added decor. Placing an old wooden boat at the
reception site is also a great way to tie in the theme.
Food at the reception should be seafood buffet style. The couple can
serve things such as shrimp, salmon, tuna, and crab. Guests will
love this interesting wedding buffet; however make sure you include
non-seafood entrees for those who choose to forgo fish.
A fishing theme wedding is a very fun and entertaining event. The
casual nature of the theme allows the couple to have a great time
with their guests while celebrating their new marriage. Most
fishermen and women are laidback individuals, and this theme goes
right along with that relaxed style. So, sit back, relax, and start
planning your fishing theme wedding right away!
