At an outdoor garden reception, it seems only natural to invite the cutest outdoor creatures to share in your festivities and mingle with your guests. But unless you’re Snow White or Cinderella, the birds and woodland creatures will likely not come on demand (though an alluring bird seed dispenser could help you efforts). Instead, offer your guests the chance to see birds and butterflies sip wine alongside them at your reception with these adorable little creatures from Timeless Paper on (drumroll please…) Etsy.

These bird and butterfly wine glass place cards add just a touch of whimsical to your reception tables. They’re a great way to pay homage to your natural surroundings, keep track of your wine glass and act as part of your seating plans too. They add that little touch of charm that all tea parties need (and they’re practical too!).

Wedding invitations with birds are perfect for spring and summer weddings.  Modern Girl Invitations has a gorgeous bird themed wedding invitation design that is available in a variety of bright and bold colors for the upcoming seasons.  You might remember this design from when we featured it in yellow and gray - a totally hot color combination (check the refresher image later in the post to see the design in this scheme).  Below the birds are shown in a mix of fuchsia, chocolate brown, and champange, which creates a soft and neutral palette with just the right amount of bold color.
