Rustic

“Carry an oversized bouquet filled with vines, greenery, pampas grass, and other botanical accents. Focus on using wildflowers and cheerful blooms, like daisies, sunflowers, roses, ranunculus, and poppies, to achieve that farmer’s market-inspired look.” – Bunmi from Boomz Events.

“It’s crucial to choose a venue that complements your wedding theme. A barn can be the perfect venue for a rustic theme. For the ceremony, choose hayebales seating covered with assorted quilts and blankets. You could also have a wooden ceremony arch personalised with greenery and garden-inspired flowers.” – Bunmi from Boomz Events.

“The key elements for a rustic-styled wedding are lots of hessian, greenery, wood and lights. For example, wooden log slice centrepieces with hessian-wrapped jars, eucalyptus and bottle lights are always a winner.” – Leigh from All That Glitters Weddings & Events. https://makingmemoriesphotography12. zenfoliosite.com/home www.thekensingtonphotographer.co.uk and www.instagram.com/blossomandbowseventhire

“Colours such as terracotta or burgundy work really well when planning a rustic wedding as the colour intensity is deep and will instantly add a richness to the room, giving you a warm and inviting atmosphere. When adding tapered candles to the tables, don’t just add one colour, mix these up and add different heights and colours to make your tables pop.” – Victoria from Blossom & Bows Event Hire.

“When working with your florist, try and avoid peonies or flowers that sit neatly in your bouquet, instead go for blooms such as roses, hydrangeas and lots of trailing foliage.” – Victoria from Blossom & Bows Event Hire.

“Lanterns are a versatile detail that can decorate almost anything. They can be included on the reception tables, down the aisle, venue walkways, tent entrances, staircases, and more.” – Bunmi from Boomz Events.

“Rustic chic is all about creating a setting that is laid back and effortless. Before the wedding, venture out and collect pine cones. These are excellent as you can spray them to your desired colour or keep them natural and they can be added to the bottom of your centrepieces or used as place card holders.” – Victoria from Blossom & Bows Event Hire.

“Hessian-wrapped chairs and cutlery holders, and wooden ladders decorated with greenery, hessian jars and photo frames make a perfect addition to any rustic wedding.” – Leigh from All That Glitters Weddings & Events.

Bridgerton

“The Bridgerton-inspired theme is utterly fabulous. Couples are finding inspiration from the so-romantic tale of a lady and her duke. From regency-inspired accessories and colourful gardens to blooming bodices, couples are loving the drama and whimsical details. Bridgerton is a no-brainer for a wedding theme.” – Bunmi from Boomz Events.

“Go for lots of candelabra and add a mixture of light blue and white florals to make your décor pop. It’s also a must to have some sun umbrellas in the mix somewhere.” – Leigh from All That Glitters Weddings & Events.

“Hire a Georgian wedding venue or some sort of historical building with great features such as the facades, entrance hall and ceiling. Add wisteria flowers and roses in an archway for the entrance and opt for hand-tied bouquets in shades of lavender, blush, peach, and touches of pale blue.” – Bunmi from Boomz Events.

“Create a regency pastel blue paired with a white table garland of hydrangeas and foliage flower arrangements on a banqueting style table. Tapered pale blue and white candles, gold-rimmed chargers, gold flatware, cut crystal stemware, and velvet blue napkins will all tie in beautifully.” – Bunmi from Boomz Events.

“Incorporate the theme into your stationery, and have your menus written in beautiful calligraphy. Finish the look with bottle lights and candles to light up the room at night and add a romantic touch.” – Leigh from All That Glitters Weddings & Events.

“Adds lots of florals throughout the venue and into your centrepieces, such as floral-filled martini glasses.” –Leigh from All That Glitters Weddings & Events.
