Strawberry Fields Forever Theme

They makes great jam… Shortcakes wouldn’t be the same without them… The Beatles even sang about this particular variety of fruit, so why not take the plump and juicy ruby coloured strawberry and turn it into a wedding theme?! By combining the motif of the strawberry itself with a bright and vivid colour scheme inspired by this candy coloured sweet treat, you have yourself a fun and vibrant wedding theme that would make any raspberry turn green with envy.
Fuchsia pink and red make for a delicious combination and when juxtaposed with elements of country charm. More than just another ‘pink’ wedding, this theme stands out from the crowd a rustic and simple approach to design. Think pretty pink bridesmaids in raw silk tea-length dresses, pails of freshly picked strawberries for guests to feast, and a outdoor country setting to tie it all together.
Chose a date which sees the strawberry at it’s seasonal peak and transform your wedding day into a celebration of what is natures sweetest treat. Affordable ways to include the fruit itself is by adding them to cocktails, use them to decorate your wedding cake and send guests home with their own strawberry supply. While the fruit itself would not be suitable to add to your floral arrangements, Hypericum Berry on the other hand acts as the perfect substitution. So there you have it… A strawberry wonderland. I think you’ll agree, it’s a Berry-Berry nice idea. ♥

Hi Katie. Isn’t it gorgeous!? It is located in USA as far as I know. An old barn transformed into a rustic and romantic space… Good luck with your planning and hopefully you can find a reception room that gives you the look you’re after!

Katie, there is a similar venue in SA, it’s an old jam factory rejuvinated. Perfect for this theme

I’m such a strawberry lover and with the cream i’m hooked. Strawberry’s as a theme makes you think about summer days, sweet smells coming from the kitchen as your mom made strawberry jam.
What a perfect end to the reception
Strawberry Wine, served with Strawberry and Cream wedding cake.. oh yummy.
