Pagan wedding decorations are a key component of creating a magical and spiritual atmosphere for couples who choose to embrace Pagan traditions on their special day. These decorations often incorporate elements from nature, religious symbols, and meaningful imagery to reflect the couple's beliefs and honor the sacredness of their union. One popular decoration element used in Pagan weddings is the use of flowers and herbs. The selection of specific plants can carry symbolic meaning and add a natural touch to the wedding venue. For example, lavender is often used for its calming and purifying properties, while roses symbolize love and passion. Couples may also choose to include other herbs such as sage or thyme to evoke certain energies or blessings.
Nice Day For a Wiccan Wedding
We work with some of the most amazing Central Florida wedding professionals for real weddings. However, we also love working with these incredibly talented wedding pros on styled wedding shoots.
These shoots are inspirational designs meant to stretch creativity and explore some out of the box design concepts. So, when we were asked to be part of this Binding Ceremony Wiccan wedding styled shoot, we jumped at the opportunity.
From ceremony to reception, this design was inspired by the modern witch with a twist of the 19th century. This Wiccan Wedding showcased spectacular details, and our fall-inspired culinary creations were a perfect fit.
Couples may also choose to include other herbs such as sage or thyme to evoke certain energies or blessings. In addition to plants, Pagan wedding decorations may incorporate crystals and gemstones. These stones are believed to carry unique vibrations and energies that can enhance specific intentions.
The Menu
Our Events Specialists and Culinary Team designed a mesmerizing menu of harvest small bites, along with delicious and unique signature cocktails.
The menu started with our scrumptious Garlic Pesto Pumpkin Soup, a creamy creation blending Roasted Pumpkin, Fresh Sage and drizzled with a Roasted Garlic Pesto.
Our second featured item was Bacon Wrapped Brussels Sprouts; Organic Brussels Sprouts with Roasted Garlic wrapped in Uncured Bacon. Even people who do not care for Brussels Sprouts will love this yummy fall bite.
The third delicious bite was our Two Chicks and A Pot Beef Crostini. A crisply toasted crostini topped with Horseradish Aioli and Wagyu Beef. This rich, tender beef was a beautiful blending of crisp toasted bread and spicy horseradish.
Any of these fall-inspired foods would be the perfect addition to an upcoming fall or winter catered event.
Fun, creative signature cocktails added a bubbling, steaming touch to the culinary creations.
We loved the unique detail of this entire shoot; every detail was on point.

I'm stoked to announced that this gorgeous DIY wedding was featured on Offbeat Bride! You can see their post here: "A DIYed darkly romantic wedding with pagan details & vegan fare"
Megan and Nick, with the help of their family and friends, DIY'd their entire wedding. Love and community are the first words that come to mind when I think of these two and their wedding day. They used natural elements as their decor and hoped that their aesthetic would come through as they highlighted their own set design decoration skills - and I truly think they succeeded.
The bride and groom were surrounded by their bridal party for their hand fasting pagan ceremony on a private property in Ojai, CA. Megan wore a black wedding dress while Nick rocked a velvet suit jacket, and their bridal party were all mismatched to what would help them feel comfortable and unique to themselves. The dinner was an all-vegan meal and was prepared by family members - and was absolutely delicious.
Their lives are so focused on their family and friends and I feel like the connection they had with their guests was so evident of that. This wedding day was darkly romantic, focused on what truly matters when you celebrate love on such a special day as this. It is a great reminder that your celebration can be whatever you want it to be.
Vendors involved:
- Decor: The couple DIY'd and staged everything themselves with the help of family.
- Makeup artist: the bride herself, Megan
- Hair stylist for bride: Rebecca Carpenter
- Videographer: Danielle Murray
- Vegan Cake & Cupcakes: Amy, Peaches Bakeshop

For instance, clear quartz is often used for its amplifying properties, while amethyst is associated with spiritual growth and protection. Couples may choose to place these crystals in centerpieces, bouquets, or even wear them as jewelry. Symbols play a significant role in Pagan wedding decorations. The use of symbols such as the pentacle, a five-pointed star enclosed in a circle, represents the interconnectedness of the elements and is often displayed as a sign of protection. The triple goddess symbol, consisting of a waxing moon, a full moon, and a waning moon, represents the phases of life and the divine feminine. These symbols can be incorporated into various decorations, such as altar cloths, invitations, and favor packaging. Candles and fire are also important elements in Pagan weddings. They represent the transformative power of fire and are often used to honor the elements. Couples may choose to include candles in their ceremony, using different colors to represent different intentions or deities. The lighting of a unity candle is a common ritual, symbolizing the merging of two souls into one. Other decorative elements that may be incorporated into Pagan weddings include feathers, ribbons, and natural materials like wood or moss. These elements serve to create a natural and earthy atmosphere in tune with the Pagan beliefs of embracing the divine in nature. Overall, Pagan wedding decorations are meant to create a sacred and meaningful environment for the couple and their guests. Whether it's through the use of flowers, crystals, symbols, or natural elements, these decorations reflect the couple's spiritual beliefs and honor the ancient traditions that have inspired their union..
