One of our favourite wedding ideas for summer is to invite guests to pitch a tent. Or, have a rental company set up luxury tent accommodations for you and your guests.

Get guests mixing and mingling with croquet at a garden wedding party, potato sack races at a farm wedding or giant Jenga on the lawn during cocktail hour.

String fairy lights to designate a spot for an outdoor dance floor and shimmy and shake under the stars all night long.

A campfire creates a gathering spot for guests to share stories about you and maybe even inspire a singalong.

Speaking of campfires, another great wedding idea for summer is setting up a s’mores station for guests to indulge in a sweet DIY treat.

Have a sky lantern ceremony where you and your wedding guests make a wish as you release a Chinese paper lantern into the night sky.

Looking to make a really big bang? A fireworks display will definitely do the trick.
