Inspiration Monday: A Preppy Secret Garden Themed Wedding

I�ve gotten a few e-mails from readers about how to throw a garden (or picnic) themed wedding without losing the pomp and circumstance of a traditional more elegantly themed affair. I think you can strike a perfect combo of preppy, sophisticated, witty and whimsical, you just have to make sure all your choices are well thought out.

Want to see what I mean, take a look at this affair on brides.com. I like the choice of a shorter dress, the influence of gingham and check in the reception d�cor and the use of natural floral elements mixed with tough fabric like burlap and felt. Also (most importantly) they didn�t theme the food to fit a picnic. Instead, they had a gourmet menu and left their guests with a witty take home dessert - smores!
