Fruit Baskets Are Perfect for Spring Weddings

If you’re trying to find ways to save money on decorations for a spring wedding think about using fruit baskets to decorate at the reception instead of flowers. Especially if you’re having an outdoor reception fruit baskets are a much better decoration to use than flowers. Fruit baskets full of seasonal fresh fruit are a beautiful way to decorate any outdoor space from a park to a backyard or even at the beach. No matter what type of space your reception is being held at you can use fruit baskets to add some beautiful color and an elegant table decoration. You can even get a custom stamp made with the date or your names or your favorite quote. Dip the stamp into food coloring and stamp it on the outer rind of the fruit and you have a seasonally appropriate and delicious party favor for your guests to take home. Fruit baskets are also a lot less costly than flower arrangements, so you can save money without sacrificing the quality of the decorations at the wedding.

Another reason to use fruit baskets to decorate at your spring wedding is because fruit baskets are easy to arrange, move, and transport. If you are doing most of the decorating yourself you won’t have any problem transporting fruit baskets full or oranges, grapefruits, or other citrus fruits in an ordinary car. You can easily carry them to any venue, even a seaside one. You can dress up the fruit baskets with chocolates and other treats, or you can even add small votive candles that are not lit into the baskets to provide an elegant look. Fruit baskets are very inexpensive centerpieces you can put on the tables at the reception. Fruit baskets on the tables will also give your guests easy access to healthy and refreshing snacks that they can enjoy throughout the reception.

Unlike flowers which will wilt or die if the weather is too cold or too warm you can depend on fruit baskets to stay beautiful and bright through any weather. Since spring weather can be so unpredictable it’s important to choose decorations that won’t get spoiled if the weather is warm or if a late storm makes it cold. The hardy rind on the oranges and other citrus fruits will make sure the fresh seasonal fruit stays juicy and delicious. Fruit baskets are the perfect choice for decorating spring wedding receptions.
