Choose the Perfect Dress
The right wedding dress will set off your rustic style wedding theme, just right. Incredibly unique and beautiful, rustic style wedding dresses can still have some modern element.
First of all, country or rustic style wedding dresses are often made with light and flowing materials, featuring beautiful but minimalistic embellishments. These dresses may look simple but are the best option if you are looking for a more feminine and elegant look.
The best wedding dress shapes are the empire waist and sheath for your wedding dress.
Choose the Perfect Décor
For the Entrance
At first glance, a wooden-handled shovel placed besides a hand-painted wooden arrow or welcome sign may not seem like wedding décor material. However, this simple yet quaint idea provides an excellent guiding star to guests.
For Photographs
Outdoor weddings normally feature beautiful backdrops where guests and the couple themselves can take lots of photos. For a rustic style wedding, a huge and worn (in perfect condition) wooden gate is the perfect wedding photo back drop.
Soften the edges by hanging plenty of simple white blooms and a string of fairy lights to create the ultimate photo experience.
