Animal Wedding Themes, Including Birds, Fish, and Insects

Animal wedding themes often tend to center around a favorite pet, such as a dog, cat, bird, or horse. In other cases, people have a fascination with butterflies, dolphins, swans, or the colorful beauty of ocean life.

Regardless of what you choose, animal wedding themes show your love and admiration for the creatures that inhabit this world with us. Therefore, I've put together several wedding plans of the more popular bird/insect/fish/animal wedding themes that engaged couples are looking for ideas on.

One of the most popular themes is the butterfly wedding theme. These fluttering fantasies present a beautiful array of colors that would enrich any wedding celebration.

Another favorite is a dolphin wedding theme. These playful sea mammals are as intelligent as they are fun to watch. The perpetual delight on their faces always make me smile, and their "laugh" is infectious. It's no wonder so many people choose dolphins to base their wedding theme around.

How about a romantic wedding idea? The Swans and Hearts Theme Wedding was the actual theme that my husband and I based our own celebration around. The idea behind it was "two hearts joined as one", and swans, who mate for life. It's a unique and personal theme that you may want to consider for yourselves.

You can also mix and match animal wedding theme ideas, either with other creatures or with symbolic items, such as the hearts mentioned above. For example, "dogs and cats" make a good pairing, since many of us have both as pets. Or perhaps choosing "the birds and the bees" as your wedding theme would be a fun idea to work with.

A dove theme wedding is also something I've found many couples desire. But… how about we make it a bit more unique by pairing it with the biblical "olive branch"? A dove is viewed as a bird of peace, and extending the olive branch is also a symbol of peace. Pairing the two together makes for a unique and personalized marriage option.

So those are just a few ideas that you can use to create some interesting animal wedding themes. What other ideas are there? Here's a list to get your imagination soaring.
