A Down East Wedding

Whether you are a native of Maine, or have just fallen in love with its beauty on a vacation, Maine can be a great place to have a wedding. There are so many fun elements that you can use to celebrate Maine as you celebrate your marriage. A Down East wedding is sure to be a great time!

Maine is famous for many things, including lobsters, boating, blueberries, and its’ unspoiled forests and mountains. There are countless ways that you can incorporate the best of Maine into your wedding plans. All you have to do is to pick one or two motifs that you can incorporate throughout your wedding scheme.

A great place to start is with the famous Maine lobster. This makes a great motif that you can use in many ways. To set the tone, choose wedding invitations with lobsters on them. For an informal wedding, you could use stationary with a large red lobster; if your style is more formal, then an understated gold engraved lobster would be nice on the top of the invitation.

For attire, the men can wear navy blazers with khakis. Of course they will want to wear navy ties with tiny red lobsters on them! The bride should look for a simple and elegant gown to coordinate with the informal attire worn by the men. A strapless gown with pearl bridal jewelry would strike just the right note. Make sure that your bridesmaids are equally well-turned out by giving them gifts of pearl bridal jewelry to wear, as well.

Couples who want to go with a nautical Maine theme will find countless options. A sailboat motif is one great idea; another would be a nautical map or ship’s wheel motif. These graphic designs will work very well on everything from invitations and place cards to the favors and even the wedding cake. To really bring a nautical theme to life, look for a reception venue that is near the ocean. A yacht club or an outdoor setting near the water’s edge would both be good choices.

Whichever way you decide to express it, you can’t beat the charm of a Down East wedding. The great state of Maine has so much to offer. It is up to you to pick the perfect Maine theme to create a wedding that your guests will never forget.
