Little
Purple Pansy Wedding Reception
The key to pulling
off a coordinated event: Evoke your theme throughout the affair.
Whether that theme is as general as a season or a feeling, or as
specific as this special flower, it should be the subtle thread
that ties everything together. Your location, invitations,
flowers, menu, cake, and favors should all cleverly reflect one
common concept. Then, get as creative as you can!
When you're thinking about personalizing your
reception, some obvious ideas should come to mind. One of the easiest ways
to customize your celebration is to choose a certain flower like the
pansy, or a color that you love.

If you love pansies and the color purple,
then go far beyond carrying pansies in your bridal bouquet and dressing
your bridesmaids in a royal hue.
Use violet- colored satin
linens
on your reception tables.
Have your caterer sprinkle the salad
greens with pansy petals (yes, they're edible) as well as freeze the
petals inside the punch bowl ice cubes.
Have your florist tuck a pansy sprig
inside each napkin band.
Put a vase of pansies in the ladies'
room.
Finally, give violet seeds as favors,
and see if you can find a poem about violets to attach to the seed
packets.
