Fruity Ideas for Wedding Decor

Filed in archive Decor Ideas on May 28, 2008

Spotted at The Wedding Fanatic are some unique, interesting and absolutely beautiful ways to incorporate the varied colors of the rainbow into your wedding through fruit. Right, fruit! It's not just for eating.

Looking through this fruity montage should give you some ideas, from the quick and easy to the more elaborate (like the tiered wedding cake). If you're not confident in your decorating ability, you can still enlist the help of a friend or wedding planner, but even the most budget-conscious and non-artistic bride can fill baskets full of colorful fruit for a one-of-a-kind table decoration.

Naturally, if you go this route, fruit should be one of the last purchases you make and will have to be done as close to your big day as possible. Visiting your local farmer's market is a good way to get quality, appealing fruit, especially if its purpose goes beyond being simply visual and will be eaten.

There's going to be so much going on in the days leading up to your wedding, however, that fruit shopping may be difficult to squeeze into your already crowded schedule. Control freak brides will have to relinquish some control here; assign this task to a friend or family member you trust to bring home to most perfect fruits possible. Then think up arrangements, incorporating flowers or favors, depending on your theme.
