There has been an incredible surge of beautiful new wedding venues opening up their doors for UK couples to say ‘I do’ in. Many of them are amazing barns and restored and re-purposed rustic settings. So it is not surprising that barn and rustic themed weddings are going to be trend through 2017. Barns and and out buildings come in lots of styles often with beautiful structural details and great possibilities for wedding ceremonies and receptions.

Long bench seating creates effective use of space and can be brilliant if there are lots of wedding guests to fit in. I love the impact of many repeated vases as table centers.

I am always in love with rustic paper products – kraft envelopes and brown card. There are lots of lovely paper styling goods to play with for a rustic themed wedding take a look at www.normadorothy.com for some delightful rustic wedding invitations and, thank you cards and other paper pieces.

There are so many lovely possibilities for floral styling and outdoor areas with a rustic wedding.Wooden crates make great props, they can be containers for flowers, wedding gifts and cards – small wooden boxes look awesome as wedding table centerpieces. Wooden tree trunk slices have so many uses from cake bases to candle holders.

 

There are some great wedding business that can style your rustic wedding for you. You may find a venue that can offer most the thing you need as part of there hire package, but if you need to build the theme take a look at www.theweddingofmydreams.co.uk for some great little wedding resources.

Styling the groom and groomsmen/ushers in earthy tweeds and natural tones and colours creates a great timeless look. Big, loose, wild look florals are everywhere, great for bridal bouquets – team with long rustic ribbons.

I love this trend and it will be great styling brides with rustic themed wedding hair adornments – the Verity Vine is beautiful wedding headpiece, choose form silver, gold or rose gold. As with all Mimosa items you can customise this bridal hairvine to work with your wedding colours.
