It is useless to hide it, especially for women, in most cases you have very well in mind what you want for the most awaited day of your life, and if the wedding you want is a country wedding, do not miss these 5 ideas for a perfect and stylish wedding!
The flowers
Flowers are a fundamental choice in any wedding, whether it is to set up the church or create centerpieces for the restaurant.
But when we decide to have a country-style wedding, the choice of flowers used in every detail is absolutely fundamental.
Daisies, wildflowers and poppies are the most sought after for this type of event; their presence is enough to recall a rustic but at the same time refined style.
Flowers can and should follow the common thread throughout the day, from the ceremony, to the decorations in the reception area, to wedding favors, to the dishes to choose from on the menu, right up to the cake!
Colors and fabrics
Another essential element to highlight the theme is given by the colors; also in this case, as for flowers, we will have to define a common thread and then decline it in all aspects and moments of the wedding.
The palettes to be taken into consideration are all those of the tones that recall the earth: off-white, brown, ocher and green the best shades that according to the general characteristics will be declined in light, dark, cold or warm base.
As for the fabrics, those to be preferred are obviously natural ones, in particular raw cotton and linen.
The natural environment
If you have decided for the country style, there is little to discuss: most of the day must take place outdoors.
Identify locations as much as possible in natural greenery, preferably in the hills.
But there are other details that can help us recreate the natural – rural environment.
For example plants such as aromatic herbs; they can be used as centerpieces by mixing them with wild flowers for example. Maybe as a placeholder for sprigs of rosemary in bloom with a craft paper tag.
Small olive trees, on the other hand, can be used as wedding favors, a useful and extremely significant reaction with regards to eternity!
The wood
The undisputed king for a country wedding is wood.
Obviously this material is in itself the closest to the representation of nature and the idea of him.
Any particular, accessory or wooden detail will give the unmistakable chic and rustic style to the most beautiful day of your life.
The lights
Finally, to create a modern fairytale atmosphere, what you absolutely must not give up is the lights.
In particular, the small string lights, which can be spread over the tables for the evening, twisted into glass bottles as decorations and dressed up on the trees of the place chosen for the wedding.
