Trending in Weddings Now: Haute Horses

By Christy James, Lover.ly

Equestrian themed weddings just keep popping up in our Lover.ly inboxes. From classic, Derby-inspired soirees to country receptions complete with hay bales and cowboy boots, horses are one of the hottest new wedding trends.

We like this trend best when it's incorporated subtly. Serve mint juleps as cocktail hour treats, add a horse silhouette to save-the-dates, and sneak horseshoes into centerpieces or place cards. And don't forget about a stunning location. Farms with rolling hills, rustic barns, or Southern estates fit the mold perfectly.

Take a peek at our slideshow for more ideas on how to make this theme work for your big day.
