Summer cocktail pops, sandals, & lemons: are you ready for these summer wedding ideas?
When it comes to summer weddings, the name of the game is usually keeping guests cool. Offering water bottles, fans, and shade is essential. But it can be super fun, too! We’re talking colorful fans that make killer photo ops, in-season berry boutonnieres, lemon robes, yard games, string lights, mojito pops, and bare feet. It’s almost summer here, y’all and we’re READY.
Here are a few of our favorite summer wedding ideas…

A DIYed Maine farmhouse wedding with board games, a fun run, & a week of awesomeness
Liz and Daniel had a super DIYed wedding with all kinds of personal details. Liz made the decor and their rainbow cake herself in addition to the food being a joint effort of the family. Liz herself was stirring the soup just an hour before the ceremony!
The day was intimate with only 30 people attending. They rented an old farm house by the sea in Maine and invited all their guests to stay there with them. Don’t miss their board game guest book. Let’s see the whole week-long fun fest…
Piñatas, tacos, & cascarones at this Mexican-inspired DIY wedding in Chicago
Steph and David wanted their wedding guests to feel like they were attending a party in their home. Steph made a piñata for the card box, cascarones (Mexican confetti bombs!) to throw after the ceremony, and a ton of fun table decor. Don’t miss the taco bar, pies and paletas for dessert, some serious dancing and video games, and, of course, piñatas. Steph and David had custom piñatas made to represent them: a cat for Steph and a dinosaur for David. Almost too cute to break!
Let’s hear from Steph about how it all came together…
