There are two types of women in the world: those who have dreamed of enormous, spectacular, Red Carpet-style weddings since childhood, and those who desire a more low-key, rustic affair. If you want to “get back to the roots” and have a traditional wedding, here are some very beautiful rustic wedding ideas to consider!
Rustic Wedding Ideas
Trends in weddings come and go, but the allure of a countryside wedding has lasted the test of time. A rural wedding, no matter where it’s held, is the perfect opportunity to incorporate your love of all things rustic and old into your décor and design.
To help you narrow down your options, we’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite country wedding ideas, which demonstrate what you can do with everything from your wedding gown to your bar or free wedding invites.
Reception Decor
It doesn’t have to be a low-budget wedding just because you desire a rustic, traditional wedding. Here’s a great concept for throwing a conventional, conservative outdoor wedding reception — the greatest part is that the barn serves as the event’s focal point, and you can decorate it whatever you like!
Rustic Buffet
The overall wedding style must be reflected in the menu, because if you truly want to have a rustic wedding, you cannot serve Foie Gras and other refined delicacies to your guests! Here’s a lovely rustic buffet concept to try, and the best part is that it’s made entirely of natural and chemical-free ingredients. What else could you want for it if it’s eco-friendly, gorgeous, and delicious all at the same time?
Chair Decorations
If you adore the old director’s chairs from movies, you’ll adore this brilliant rustic chair sign design! Two chairs and a few wooden boards on which to write “Mrs.” and “Mr.” are all you’ll need. It’s that simple.
Chandelier
When you think of a chandelier, the first image that comes to mind is likely of a huge, glamorous, gigantic chandelier. That does not have to be the case! Make a DIY hula hoop chandelier for your rustic wedding, and your guests will love it!
Colorful Flower Bouquets
You’re probably aware that the decorations for a rustic wedding can be pretty challenging. Here’s a terrific way to add some vibrant flower bouquets to a couple wine barrels and up the ante on your wedding decorations on a budget!
DIY Photobooth
Whatever your wedding theme, you’ll need a photographer to capture the memories – and nothing is more valuable to a nostalgic couple than a few antique images! Here’s a terrific way to create your own rustic photo booth without breaking the bank.
Color Scheme
One of our favorite aspects of the rustic wedding style is how adaptable it is. It works with a variety of color palettes, each of which can help you generate a unique look based on your decor. Stick to a softer color palette of pastel hues, such as blush, dusty blue, or sage green, for a more “rustic chic” aesthetic.
Table Number
At your wedding reception, wooden table numbers with a beautiful calligraphy font will make each table stand out.
To make them stand out, place them in potted plants or wildflower-filled watering cans (more on that later).
Vases Jars
Swapping flowers for jam jars is a terrific way to save money while also adding a charming, rustic touch to your tablescape.
To add to the rustic look, wrap the vases with hessian and bind with twine.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the amount of work you have to accomplish, this is an excellent assignment to enlist the assistance of your bridal party.
Wedding Cakes
A stunning (and large!) wedding cake is a must-have for any rustic wedding. While there are a plethora of rustic wedding recipes to attempt for the big day, you may also have a modern wedding day — the “rustic factor” is in the details! You’d be surprised at how adaptable wooden crates are and how quickly they can be transformed into a typical cupcake display.
Wedding Attire
Choosing a boho wedding dress is the best way to tie your rustic wedding together. Boho wedding gowns are laid-back, carefree, and romantic, with a lot of lace and embroidery.
Brides who wear a bohemian wedding gown with a flower crown will look stunning — your inner hippie will be dancing with delight!
Wear a floral crown instead of a typical wedding veil; your florist may make one for you.
The bride isn’t the only one who can dress in a rustic style. This is a style that grooms and their groomsmen can truly get behind.
Instead of the usual black, grey, and navy, opt for a tweed suit or something made of a lighter-colored cloth. This style can be completed with a rustic buttonhole and brown leather shoes – how stylish are these groomsmen?
Wedding Invitation – Rustic Leaf with Marble Frame
Look for nature-inspired features like wood grain patterns, greenery themes, and floral designs when creating rustic save-the-dates and wedding invitation suites.
To complete the rustic look, add wood-burned decorations, burlap ribbons, and lace belly bands to your invites.
Consider these Rustic Leaf with Marble Frame who look really classy to be included in your elegant rustic wedding party.
