Suggestions for Thanksgiving Themed Wedding

Thanksgiving is the perfect time for an elegant yet relaxed celebration, as the autumn holiday lends itself to natural settings, simple decor and comfort food. Thanksgiving presents an entirely different set of circumstances. Here are some creative ways to plan your Thanksgiving wedding in style.

Firstly, one of the most important aspects to Thanksgiving wedding invitations is to make sure people know it's a Thanksgiving wedding. Send out Save the Date cards early so that people have enough time to prepare for the holiday and the wedding. As far as the invitation theme, use fall colors and add a touch of embossed lettering and pressed autumn leaves or acorns for that classy touch.

 

Secondly, if you want to go traditional with your Thanksgiving wedding theme, take that route. If you want to do something a little different with your reception centerpieces, consider using pumpkins with floating candles or white pumpkins with pinecones to set a wonderful contrast.

 

Thirdly, the menu is all up to you, however for a Thanksgiving themed wedding you can always get away with turkey and mash potatoes. Consider traditional foods with a twist to add even more sophistication to your Thanksgiving wedding.

 

Fourthly, then there's the cake, the best part of any wedding. The wedding cake is where you can really take some risks. Consider cupcakes topped with autumn leaves or shaped like pumpkins, or go completely traditional with a tiered cake in autumn colors.
