Jack and Jill theme ideas

Yes, we really are Jack and JIill!  We are looking for ideas to carry that theme/nursery rhyme into our wedding(without it being too "cutesy").  We are planning an outdoor wedding on June 30, 2012.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!  

Re: Jack and Jill theme ideas

  • Centerpieces could be flowers in pails, or wishing wells.  Whatever, you do, keep it subtle.
  • Yeah, I think I might keep it to just the cake.  It wouldn't take much for it to go from wedding to baby shower. 
  • You and your FI's names are Jack & Jill?  A nursery rhyme sounds like trouble... it can very quickly become childlike and not elegant/romantic/grown-up at all.

    A cake sounds like a good idea, with the bride & groom falling "down the hill"?  Perhaps table names of nursery rhymes?  I don't know... that starts getting weird.
  • The nursery rhyme does not end very well.  I'd avoid it.
  • I think i'd go as far as a garden/outdoorsy theme (what PP said about flowers in pails and wishing wells).  Maybe dress it up a bit with white christmas lights in trees/bushes.  A JacknJill cake topper would be okay too, but aside from that....i'd stay away from too much 'cutesy'.

    Hi date twin! :)  Perhaps you could find a wedding topper from precious moments with a boy and a girl holding a pail of water (I know they are expensive but I'm pretty sure I've seen something like this before), and also put your favorite candy (like jelly belly jelly beans in the colors of your wedding theme) in miniature pails. I think I saw something like that on beau-coup favors and other commonly used sites from google. Good luck! Cute idea!
