It's no secret how obsessed we are with The Hunger Games. However, if we thought we were the biggest fans around then we were sorely mistaken. While we thought we'd hit the mark with our Hunger Games Inspired Party Ideas, it seems we've been trumped by couples having Hunger Games themed weddings! 



The Hunger Games actually makes for a great theme because of the romance, rustic place setting woodland atmosphere. It translates so well for an elegant, unique and intimate occasion like a wedding and can be achieved easily with decor, dress and of course, food!

Hair and Accessories


Of course, we've got to mention the hair. Katniss wears her hair in a side braid and it's her signature style which comes in especially handy for quick bow and arrow drawing! We think a side braid or even ponytail, done intricately would be divine for a wedding day look. We love the added flower details for a hippie chic look.


Depending on your personal style, you can go more bohemian and organic with this look or have a sleek, more sophisticated style. 

For the dress, we think the real Katniss wouldn't be into the typical 'girly' and 'frilly' look. Go for something clean lined, modern and elegant. 


These rings aren't over the top, just a small way to show off your Hunger Games love. The arrow theme is very prominent so it's only fitting the rings should match.   
 
Food and Cake


We've talked a bit about Hunger Games food in our party article before, but The Hunger Games is all about simple, country, comfort foods. Think stews, breads, biscuits and fresh fruits. You can actually take foods mentioned in the book and use those in the wedding too (lamb stew, orange juice, cookies etc). Because this is also a very rustic wedding, we like the idea of using preserves and pickled foods which also make very pretty and colourful additions to the table.


The cake will be your 'piece de resistance' for the wedding, so go all out! Incorporate symbols and themes from the book into your cake. Berries play an important role in the book and so use them in your desserts as well, or have them in bowls on tables as centre pieces.

Invitations 
 

Text or quotes from the book used in the invites sets up the theme for your guests. Again, using symbols from the book like arrows, brings everything together for your event. 

Flowers 

Wild flowers are the perfect accessory for The Hunger Games wedding. Don't go for the typical roses, think of flowers you would find in the country instead. These bouquets aren't perfect, they're sweet and romantic, a little vintage and homey. We loved the idea of wrapping burlap or twine around them as well. One of the major themes in the book is yellow flowers; you don't necessarily need to go for the exact same yellow flowers as mentioned in The Hunger Games either, try any yellow flower you like. 

Décor 
 

We mentioned yellow flowers being a major theme, continue the yellow into the decor with table settings or center pieces. Bring the outdoors indoors by using live plants and fresh flowers. Go for earthy colours to compliment the yellow and remember, it's all about country and rustic romance!
