SCENIC STATIONERY:
When sending out Save-the-Dates, Invitations, and R.S.V.P.’s try to add something sentimental. One way to do this is to add a scenic photo. This can be an actual photo from a personal collection, the aerial view of the wedding venue, or outdoor wonders like mountains, rivers, lakes, and gorges. Many invitation websites such as Minted Weddings allow customized background and photos to be added to invitations.
ATTIRE:
Jewel tones including pink, yellow, navy, and emerald are “in season” for 2020. Textures are also very popular during the autumn months. A great way to add this element is within a bouquet using wooden flowers or big greenery. Utilizing velvet for the bridesmaid and groomsmen attire is another way to incorporate texture. This fabric is the perfect balance between cozy and chic, which is perfect for an autumn wedding.
VENUE-BARNS:
Barns are a wonderful option, especially for couples seeking venues that do not require a lot of additional decor. Barns already have their own natural beauty and many are already decorated with lights and curtains. There are additional benefits to hosting a wedding at a barn. The location is typically secluded and has enough space for guests to attend, park, and enjoy the fresh air. This type of location also allows for great photo opportunities.
RECESSIONAL ITEMS:
Gone are the days of tossing rice, as this has proven to be harmful to the environment. Recessional items should be light and sustainable including:
- Lavender
- Crushed Leaves
- Rosemary
- Flower Petals
- Seeds
- Biodegradable Confetti
- Shredded Brown Paper Bags
- Sprinkles
- Bubbles
UNIQUE FURNITURE:
Flowers, mason jars, bows, and framed pictures are items that typically come to mind when thinking of wedding decor. A unique touch and style can be added to your day by incorporating furniture. Borrowing furniture from family or friends would be a budget-friendly option. Other options include using personal furniture, purchasing pieces from an antique shop, or renting furniture from a rental company. Check out these websites to rent beautiful and unique furniture.
