Imagine a timber structure with natural wood beams, a large open space ready to be personalised, and a beautifully weathered appearance that sets the perfect backdrop. Here are some easy ways to add that wow factor… unsplash.com/@kristycruzm_ unsplash.com/@labradoodleandfox RUSTIC GLAM WITH NATURAL TEXTURES SEASONAL FLORALS, FRESH OR DRIED Add character to your tables with twinewrapped place names, mini bunches of herbs or flowers, and textured runners or burlap. Get creative with table names, perhaps inspired by your favourite countryside walks, rustic flowers, or local wildlife. These subtle personal details help guests feel connected to your story. The wedding breakfast should feel relaxed yet elevated, and wooden banquet tables are the perfect base for layers of lace or linen. Adorn the space with different coloured mason jars, vintage candle holders, wildflowers and seasonal accents like pinecones, dried oranges or sprigs of rosemary for added scent. Make your ceremony space just as inviting by framing your vows with a wooden arch decorated with draped fabrics and soft florals. Add hay bales or wooden benches covered in throws for guest seating to bring in those rustic textures. Use barrels, lanterns, and scattered petals to define the aisle and soften the space. Embrace warmth and structure with natural woods, exposed beams and soft draping. Colours that work well include earthy tones such as deep greens, terracotta, mustard, dusty rose, creams and warm browns that feel grounded yet romantic. Make the most of the seasons by incorporating wildflowers in spring and summer, or dried florals and warm tones in autumn and winter. Popular choices are pampas grass, dried thistles, eucalyptus and bunny tails with fresh roses, dahlias and ranunculus. unsplash.com/@jsbco 70
