Rustic Autumn Wedding Flower Ideas

Rustic theme weddings are very popular. The design options are numerous when you use them. You will love the way these floral varieties look for a rustic fall wedding.

In the autumn months, informal rustic style flowers are plentiful. Sunflowers look great for a wedding in a location like a barn or an apple orchard. The traditional sunflower hues will easily combine with fall foliage colors for the rest of the flowers. A bunch of mini sunflowers tied with raffia would be a lovely bouquet to pair with a rust colored shantung bridesmaid dress. Amber colored crystal pendants would be beautiful bridesmaid jewelry gifts to complete their look. Try combining them with other blossoms in shades of lilac for an interesting contrast.

Dahlias are a fantastic choice for a rustic wedding. Choose them in your favorite colors, whether you prefer shades of pink, purple, yellow, white, or red. Unlike a lot of flowers, dahlias can be found in diameters ranging from two inches to over ten inches. Enormous dinner plate dahlias are especially fun to use! Try them for simple centerpiece designs. They are so striking that you can literally just drop a few in an old painted tin for gorgeous decorations.

Mums are an outstanding choice for a rustic wedding, especially because they come in many varieties, including spider, daisy, and button mums. One of their best features is their hardiness out of water. Brighten up the altar with pots of chrysanthemums in your favorite hues. The value of colorful potted mums is incomparable. Certainly mums also work nicely in mixed bouquets. Brides love how they last all day without drooping. A cute DIY idea is to hang mum pomanders from the ceremony chairs. You can use classic fall colors like brick red, orange, and yellow, or more bridal hues such as dusty rose, white, and purple.

You can give your floral arrangements a unique flair by mixing in other non-floral natural accents. Create a unique effect by mixing preserved fall oak leaves in with the flowers in the bridesmaid or bridal bouquets. It would be a charming idea to shop for bridesmaid jewelry gifts made from crystal leaves to tie in with the leaves in the bouquets. Mix in curly branches and dried lotus pods for a fantastic look. You might even want to use a hollowed out pumpkin as the vase for your unique floral arrangement.
