If you want a simple, casual wedding reception but you also want it to be a ton of fun, why not go with a picnic theme? It’s perfect for summer and can be very charming if planned the right way. Here are some ideas to create a beautiful picnic themed wedding reception.
Mismatched Tables
Your reception can be outdoors, since it is a picnic, and there’s no need to get fancy. Mismatched tables and chairs, as well as picnic tables will serve your guests well. To tie them together, get inexpensive matching tablecloths and napkins. Red-checkered cloths are perfect for a picnic theme and they give the reception a country, intimate feeling.
