To A Terrifyingly Fun Dinosaur Wedding Theme
Are you looking for “something old” to include in your wedding festivities? A dinosaur-themed wedding is a perfect way to remember the past while celebrating your future as a couple. Dinosaur-themed weddings are often styled to have a more natural, jungle feel—a place where dinosaurs would feel at home. Design features include dinosaur-shaped wedding favours and green wedding cakes with “scaly” dinosaur skin fondant frosting. Food choices at dinosaur-themed weddings are oversized, with brontosaurus ribs (BBQ beef ribs), pterodactyl legs (smoked turkey legs), or dino-egg desserts made from Italian meringue.
Whichever fun wedding theme you choose, your wedding invitations should match and include information about your theme. You can request your guests to dress to match the overall theme of the ceremony and reception—but make sure they also know that it’s optional.
