Wedding Tarot Spreads
Let’s get witchy y’all!
I’m kind of super into tarot, and i thought it would be fun to create some wedding-specific tarot spreads for couples planning their celebration.
If you end up using any of these, please tag or DM me on Instagram @bowerbirdatelier! I’d love to know how they worked for you.

Engagement tarot spread
Are you recently engaged? That’s amazing! The beginning stages of planning can be so overwhelming sometimes. Use this spread if you want some guidance about where to go from here.
1. What is most exciting about your commitment?
2. What might cause the most conflict?
3. What is holding you back?
4. How can you best move forward?
5. The highlight of this journey.
6. Conclusion: Your celebration!
wedding Priorities tarot spread
Once the “newly engaged couple” butterflies subside, reality sets in. You have a set budget for your celebration, and you have to figure out the most important pieces to focus on. The tarot cards might not help you determine exactly which DJ to book, but they will help you start to have conversations around your real priorities so you can figure out how to compromise.
1. Your commitment.
2. & 3. The things most important to you.
4. & 5. The things most important to your partner.
6. The compromising solution.
wedding Planning tarot spread
You’ve begun planning your celebration, but it’s so hard to get totally aligned with your partner on the most important things (because you definitely have different priorities). Plus, there are all of these “important traditions” everyone expects you to follow. How can you figure out what to focus on to make both of you happy (and actually enjoy the planning process)? This tarot spread might help!
1. What to focus your energy on.
2. What rituals or traditions to uphold.
3. You, now.
4. Your partner, now.
5. You both together.
6. Tension to release.
7. Message from the universe.
Family Conflicts tarot spread
Let’s face it, everyone’s family has opinions when it comes to planning your wedding celebration. You may totally align with some, but others can become a source of tension and strife, which adds to the wedding planning stress! Use this spread to gain clarity around family conflicts so you can make it through the planning process without tearing your hair out.
1. You, now.
2. Conflicting forces.
3. What is lifting you up.
4. Underlying influences.
5. Mindset to cultivate.
6. Mindset to release.
7. Next action to take.
8. Advice or message.
Wedding Day tarot spread
You made it! All of the challenges were worth it to get to this celebration. You deserve to have fun! This spread may help you let that final bit of tension go so you can really relax into your commitment to each other.
1. You.
2. Your partner.
3. What is most important to you both?
4. What can you both let go of?
5. & 6. How to celebrate.
7. End result.

DISCLAIMER
Tarot is a fascinating tool for stimulating internal conversation, but some of the cards do have both positive and negative connotations. If you pull a spread that feels overwhelmingly negative, I encourage you to dig deeper into the meanings of the cards! Not all card meanings will apply to every spread, and you can interpret the answers in so many different ways.
