Something about spring brings out a little bohemian style in all of us. If you’re getting married in the springtime, consider the universal appeal of the carefree look and virtues that characterize the bohemian style… authenticity, freedom, natural beauty and simplicity.
Here are a few style pointers ranging from ceremony setting to unique wedding invitations that will help you create a bohemian look for your spring wedding:
- Ceremony setting and Reception venue. Choose something completely or mostly outdoors, including and especially the ceremony. Wooded settings, rural and pastoral landscapes convey less formality. Lakeside and other shoreline settings can work too. Choose anyplace with a rustic quality to it that lets nature and simplicity shine.
- Dresses and veils. Less tailoring and minimal structure is key. Bohemian style dresses typically feature lace over bling and use homespun elements like crotchet. Skirts are usually less flouncy and veils give way to wreaths of flowers, simple ribbon, or headscarves.
- Beauty & Hair. Loose tresses dominate the bohemian look, with tousled-looking braids being a popular choice. But short hair works beautifully too, especially with make-up that looks minimal. Pale lips, darker eyes, and earth-tone lip and cheek colors should prevail.
- Flowers.
Use wildflowers of every kind, tied with natural fibers or vintage ribbon, or casually tossed into mason jars or metal milk cans. Feature as many in-season blooms, berries and branches as you’ll find in your natural setting vs. those grown in greenhouses and imported.
- Invitations Find unique wedding invitations to set style expectations with guests. Look for handmade qualities like textured paper and hand-drawn illustration. Earth-tone colors, nature-inspired patterns, and vintage flourishes give wedding invitations a bohemian look.
