Horse themed wedding

You could have different My Little Pony or Black Beauty incoporated somewhere?

A few ideas:

You could have flowers with tiny horseshoe charms in? And maybe use a little bit of hay for decorating or used in the favour boxes like tissue paper? I once saw a pic of a wedding cake that had a silver horseshoe design on it too that looked really cool.

What fantastic ideas, It has given me a lot to think about.

I loved the invite picture and might see if we can do something like that as we are wanting to do our own invites. I am very excited now as it seems it will be easyer than I thought to incorprate the horse theme through our wedding, and I can't think of anything more perfect as it was our love of horses that brought us together. I have to say I know my mum will hit the roof as she hates the horses with a passion. Haven't told her our plans yet.

Kepp the ideas flowing thank you so much xx

Sounds like you have some great ideas of your own. as a photographer this is the sort of wedding I love covering - sounds really unique.

Few things: you need a wet weather plan. so some form of marquee might be a total blessing. My wife is a wedding planner and knows a few people that hire out vintage crockery for this sort of thing. You could carry on the horse/country idea with haystacks, barn dancing, doggie races and all the other events you have on a village green/country show. might be worth contacting the people from the local hunt - they always like this sort of thing, and generally will do most things for a good drink!

I had the same themed Wedding myself as I also own my own horse. I had horse shoe invitations (some I have also in my portfolio so please do email me for some piccies at *******@****************.**.**)

I also had horseshoes on the rest of my stationery including placecards etc.

please do email me if you'd like some ideas (I don't have any on this PC that I can upload)

Oh yes we are working on a wet weather plan at the moment, although I do hope we don't need it.

Awwwwwwwwww id love to ride my horse to my wedding but my dress is tight fitting and he slobbers on everything! Lol

Tough. Whose wedding is it, yours or hers?

She doesn't have to like it, she just has to accept it is what you want, understand that it means something to you both, turn up and smile.

I know, I canceled our last wedding because it was what my mum wanted not what we wanted. We moved it forward and re booked this, and I am so happy and excited this time

Oh wow what a fantastic theme you have - have a real passion for horses - used to own 3 but due to life paths and change of circumstances don't have any at the mo but I'm working on it. I'm married now but planning a great medieval birthday bash where I would want my horse as part of the day (so that I can ride side saddle up to the castle).

I love what you're doing - my OH isn't really into horses so I couldn't have everything horsey for our wedding. It's good though that you both share the interest. Just need the day to be dry ? ideally but good that you're thinking of a wet weather plan just in case.

My mother isn't horsey at all and has no idea why I turned out to be horse mad lol!

Have lots of fun planning - your wedding sounds fabulous!

Another horsey person here! I own 10 but I've got 2 out on loan at the moment. Really want to ride one of my dressage horses to the wedding but I think logistically it will be a nightmare so I'm going to have to make do with having dalmatians as ring bearers. Horse shoes are an easy way of having a horsey theme. What about rossettes with the names of the bride & groom & date of the wedding in the centre of the rossette instead of 1st etc? Good luck with your planning, sounds like it'll be fab!

Thanks for all the ideas ladies, o/h is loving them too. Going to try and get hold of a load of old used horseshoes little pony size and use those as my place settings all painted ivory with peoples names on them, at least only having 30 guests means it is a bit more do able

Your farrier might let you buy some used ones off him cheap?

I am hoping so, although I am getting a lot of friends to keep there horses shoes when they are shod so between us we should get 30 together in no time. I am just glad I will finally have a use for them after they are worn out, they cost enough lol

We have just this month completed our Carousel Horse Wedding Favour. Great for this type of wedding theme. Check them out: http://www.cannycampers.co.uk/carousel-favour-boxes/

This post is 2 years old, i'd like to think she had her favours sorted a long time ago ?

Haha might have missed the boat on this one ?
