Styling Guide for a Rustic Barn Wedding - The Wool Barn - Frampton Court Estate - Cotswolds

Rustic Wedding The Wool Barn Frampton On Severn www.foncourtestate.co.uk — The Wool Barn Frampton On Severn www.framptoncourtestate.co.uk

How do you chose the theme for your wedding decor?

Firstly, decide on the theme for your wedding – do you want a minimalist or a more elaborate style? Do you favor a rustic or an elegant, boho, festival, scandi, or minimalist theme?

If you’ve chosen a rustic theme there are different styling options for a rustic wedding – rustic with hessian and lace, rustic chic, rustic woodor why not combine all of them - always remember its your day so do it your way.

Choosing a venue that suits your wedding style will mean that you naturally will need to do less to create the wedding of your dreams and for a rustic wedding a barn has to be one of the first choices.

I always recommend visualising the day as it will unfold and imagine a walk through starting with your guest arrival. How do guests know where to park, is signage needed to the entrance, do you want some décor at the entrance other considerations include – would you like any of the following - a Welcome sign, card display, ceremony décor, your table plan.

Lastly any other items you would like to include such as photo opportunities, sweet or olive bars, drinks stations, cake displays.

Wedding Styling tips for a barn wedding

When planning your décor whether it is large props or small tea lights always think in 3’s – a tall, middle height and low height item.

Aim to create a few area that provide impact and don’t be tempted to sprinkle a few props all around the venue – barns are large spaces and a few items in lots of places can look lost, unless you’re lucky enough to have a large budget.

Flowers in small necked glass vases or jars or garden centre plants or herbs in terracotta or zinc flower pots are a cost effective way to add additional florals to compliment your florists flowers for décor areas, as well as garden centre plants in hessian sacks which you can then plant in your garden as a reminder of your day – hopefully they will flower at the same time on your anniversary.

Wedding Venue Entrance styling

This is the first thing guests will see and allows you the opportunity to welcome your guests, create an impact and set the style of your wedding. Opportunities for the entrance décor are endless and can include signage, step ladders, vintage or decorative bikes, wheelbarrows, milk churns, crates, lanterns, tin baths, rustic crates, shepherd’s crooks.

What Props to add to the wedding Welcome Area

This will normally have a welcome sign which can be personalised to your taste - options include calligraphy hand written signs on wood, Perspex, crates made for you and that you can keep as a memento of the day for the order of the day, sign writing crates, chalkboards, hanging hoops & shutters. You can include your card box here, there are many options that can be used which include vintage cases, hat boxes, wooden crates, galvanised tubs. Wicker baskets, tools boxes & vintage trugs decorated with flowers in jars, on log slices and with tea lights and candlesticks. I love using ivory or pastel coloured taper candles to tone with the décor colour.

Vintage bikes with decorated floral baskets look so pretty for these, as do pallets with hanging pots of flowers, wheelbarrows full of flowers, crates or ladders with photo frame table names, all decorated with flowers, greenery, glass jars of flowers, candlesticks and tea lights.

Other options include vintage window frames with floral or greenery garlands or shutters with flower pots with the name places on them or on mini hoops.

Wedding Ceremony Décor

How to dress your ceremony table, I love to use tall pillar candlesticks for the ceremony table along with wooden hoops in stands with a beautiful floral display in an urn or vintage galvanised mini feeding trough. Foliage and floral runners with pillar candlesticks, taper candlesticks with pretty coloured candles or ivory or a floral or foliage swag look amazing as well.

Aisle options include glass, copper, silver lanterns on log slices with foliage, pine cones and small wooden hearts at the base. Wicker hearts with floral or foliage décor. Floral or foliage hanging sprays from the chairs, swags on the backs of chairs or hessian or lace chair sashes- - I don’t use these as I prefer natural floral and foliage and candlelight.

If you’re having an outdoors ceremony you could decorate the aisle with shepherds crook with pretty floral jars and candles in jars

A tip if using hessian sashes please be careful that they don’t scag guests outfits or leave fibres on their clothes.

Barns afford fantastic opportunities for hanging installations – these can be hoops, canopy lights, cart wheels. Bunting, material swags in muslin look amazing, festoon lighting.

Wedding Confetti Trugs

I love to collect and dry rose and other flower petals and then put them in a Vintage French Trugs with or without cones, this is a lovey way to introduce some of your home into your day and also friends and relatives can collect them for you making it a lovely way to introduce friends and family into your day and an added bonus it saves quite a bit of money as well.

rustic wedding Table Decor

The choice of décor will depend on whether you have long trestle type tables or round ones.

You can use wooden trestles with foliage, hessian, lace or silk runners, there are now so many different runner options in natural materials or hand dyed or cheaper material ones available. Add small log slices, wooden pillar or vintage brass taper candlesticks of different heights with groups of three tea light and floral jars or vases in between with a delicate foliage runner looks so pretty.

I don’t think any round rustic table is dressed without a log slice –we’ve struggled as venue decorators to find an alternative to these, they help ground the table center and gave additional height. There are so many options for round tables. Vintage milk churns and jugs, lanterns in glass, rose gold, brass or silver, geometric shape terrariums, wooden, glass or mercury silver pillar candlesticks, glass, silver or vintage brass taper candlesticks all accessorised with small flower vases, tea lights all in groups of 3 and not forgetting foliage, you can add pine cones or other small accessories . There is always the option with round tables to add foliage or material runners as well.

Trestle tables are increasingly popular and mu personal favorite, these can be dressed with runners in cheesecloth, chiffon, macramé candlesticks, pillar candles, tea lights they can be rustic with bare wood or more elegant with tablecloths and candelabra.

Table names can be displayed in vintage frames, on mini easels, written onto log slices, chalkboards or Perspex.

Name places can be written on mini blackboards, slate, marble, agate, card or vintage handmade paper with silk ribbons that match your invites. Other alternatives include Perspex, written on mini log slices, accessorised with foliage or flowers and ribbon, hessian twine

Barn wedding Hanging Décor

This can include hanging flowers from ladders, hoops, greenery garlands, fairy lights, festoon lighting, flags, giant hoops, paper lanterns, origami, bunting, pom poms, geometric shapes or lanterns.

Wedding Bar, Cake Table, Dessert table ideas

Individuality is the key here - Why not include an Indian Cart, Vintage Trestles for your drinks or back bar? Add crates, vintage scales, boxes to create impact. Gin, imp your prosecco, his and hers cocktails and whisky and cigar bars are all options. Prosecco bar. Of course no vintage wedding is complete without vintage galvanised tubs for wine, beer and soft drinks coolers.

Wedding Dance Floor Ideas

You can consider using a different canopy dressing over the dance floor to highlight this area.

Wedding Chill Out Area Ideas

Hopefully your venue will have gorgeous outside space where you can have fire pits, smores and toasted marshmallows, accessorised with festoon lighting, rugs, sofas, giant cushions, low tables, lanterns, poufs, flowers and not forgetting blanket displays in galvanised baths, on ladders or railway trolley for those chilly English nights.
