Don't you love when it's finally warm enough to open your bedroom window, and you hear birds outside? Or when you realize there's a nest in the tree outside the house? Though they've been done before, birds and nests are such a darling element for any spring wedding.

Daffodils are so bright and cheery, even playful - such an appropriate personality for a flower that announces the coming of spring. Individually in bud vases, bunched in a bridal bouquet, or even live potted versions for centerpieces, daffodils are easy to love.

The first place I go when spring finally arrives is the backyard or the garden. There's so much happening there, with new flowers blooming daily. And even if you don't have a garden wedding, you can still incorporate garden elements - arrange centerpieces in old watering cans, use vintage seed packets in lieu of table numbers, and send each guest home with a miniature potted plant or herb.

Thank you so much Maria and Ritzy Bee readers for having me! And happy happy Spring!
Thank YOU Kathryn...we LOVE when you stop by!
the daffodil and garden wedding ideas are great but i think the birds are a really creepy wedding theme. i hope it will go out of style soon.

The daffodils looked really nice... Although I prefer butterflies than birds, I really find the bird cake toppers really cute... :)
