Do you want to celebrate a rustic wedding, outdoors, without giving up all the glamor and elegance of a celebration of these characteristics? The keys are very simple, so just taking care of some simple details you can get a romantic look that will leave all your guests speechless.
The wedding season is getting closer and that is why, today, we bring you some tips to decorate a wedding in the country. We have raised today’s post as a tour of all those details that are important and should not be missed.
At Orchards at Spring Vale Farm you will find an excellent option for you as a natural place in the countryside with all the good things you can find in an excellent wedding venue.
Flowers and more flowers
Centerpieces with wild flowers in wooden bowls, garlands hanging from tree branches, petal carpets to receive the bride and groom … In a country wedding you cannot miss the floral arrangements, symbol of love and the beginning of a new life. Whether you choose wild flowers or white roses, chrysanthemums or coves, the effect will be very romantic.
Let the light reign
When it starts to get dark, the light is essential so that the party does not lose heart. Light up the corners with lanterns and old lamps, and make sure there is no lack of lighting on the tables of the guests, those of the buffet or in the dessert cart. Candles are also a good option, as long as the candlesticks are deep so they don’t go out if it makes a little air.
Rustic furniture
If you are going to celebrate your wedding in the countryside choose a wooden furniture seen: simple or old tables and chairs. To arrange the buffet of sweets or soft drinks you can use a cart, an old dresser or even stacked boxes. For their part, some clay pots can be very useful for storing details for guests, while classic coat racks will be very useful for attendees to hang their bags and jackets, which will prevent them from having to carry them throughout the entire celebration.
Blackboards and wooden signs
More wood! The decoration of the tables and the surroundings can be elegant and rustic at the same time using small blackboards to indicate where the diners should sit, the number of the table or even where the bathroom is. Sign the path to the place of the celebration with hand-painted wooden arrows, and hang some blackboards on the tree trunks so that guests can write congratulatory messages.
Natural fabrics
Linen, cotton, silk … The old linens will give a touch of distinction to the tables of the diners, and the chairs lined with white cloth covers will make you feel in a dream place. If you tie the fabrics to the chairs with strips of chiffon, tulle or lace, matching your wedding veil, you will create a bridal atmosphere. Cotton or wool rugs in a corner lit with lanterns and candles, and decorated with coloured cushions, will allow guests to sit and rest and chat, enjoying the natural environment to the fullest. And that there can be better than a s eating plan made with scraps of fabrics of different materials and colours!
Access Gate
Keep in mind that in outdoor ceremonies, unlike ceremonies in a church or a City Hall, there is no door through which the bride makes her entrance. For that reason, the first advice we leave you is that you should frame and give importance to the entrance of the bride. For this there is nothing better than creating a false gate, like the one in the image, that highlights the entry of both the guests and the bride.
The field is nature, freedom … Do not hesitate to use natural elements such as wood and if they are recycled / recovered, better than better! and of course the decoration with flowers and natural plants is something that cannot be missing.
The hall
After passing through our “false” access door, the path that leads to the nervous boyfriend, is another space that you should pamper. In itself, the path is defined and defined by the chairs of our guests, but that is not enough, we must make it have charm and for this there is nothing better than using flowers.

The cut logs have many purposes in a rustic link, as they can be used to carry alliances, as a base in the centrepieces or as mere decorative elements.
Country Weddings: Hay Alpaca
Essential at any wedding in the countryside, hay alpacas are currently used both as benches for guests during the ceremony, and to create comfortable chill out corners during the party.
Country Weddings: Fabrics
Burlap, and jute, but also linen and cotton with floral or plaid prints, with lace. All of them will help you further enhance the rustic look of your link. Use these fabrics on table runners, to decorate the chairs, to make pennants or to design a fun seating plan.
