Hollye and Will’s wedding at Annadel Estate Winery in Santa Rosa, California
Our Barn Rustic County Wedding is the epitome of casual elegance. Barn weddings are one of the most popular types of rustic weddings since they offer the couple the ability to either dress up the space or leave it casual. We love this mix of refined (chandeliers) and rustic (barn space and reclaimed wood table).
Set the Stage
Clever use of materials can take ordinary to extraordinary! Look how this couple used a classic farm truck as the appetizer buffet for their barn wedding. Break the mold and push the boundaries of what these simple things can do for your wedding!
This creative and resourceful bride fashioned a chandelier out of mason jars and crystal strands hanging from a small wagon wheel. The result is simply stunning!
Straw bales
Hay bales have used in rustic country weddings (before barn weddings became fashionable, most likely due to the fact that they are widely available and relatively inexpensive, and after the wedding used to feed your livestock! Straw or hay bales have been incorporated into weddings in so many creative ways. Break the mold and push the boundaries of what these simple things can do for your wedding!

Food Stations
Your Rustic Country Wedding should be a fresh, casual, and relaxed affair, just like the venue. We love the idea of food “stations” set up around the inside or outside of a country barn. Get creative with appetizers, main courses and dessert tables. This is such a fun and affordable way to involve guests in your special day. Have your guests make their own salads, sandwiches, or pizzas with a plethora of showy ingredients. How about the Ultimate Burger Bar? Remember; presentation, presentation, presentation to make your food stations showy and memorable! Add height with baskets, barrels and bales, and add interesting accents such as vintage coke crates, galvanized watering cans, wire egg baskets, and rusty farm implements.

A country chic wedding breaks the mold when it comes to casual elegance, but it doesn’t have to break the bank. Clever use of everyday materials makes an ordinary setting extraordinary and saves a little extra for the honeymoon. Dress up a big barn or the backyard with an eclectic mix of straw bales, reclaimed wood, and Chantilly lace. Hang Mason‐jar candles from the rafters and horseshoes from the walls. Use vintage wagons and old pickup trucks for serving appetizers, and pack antique wheelbarrows, animal troughs, or wooden whiskey barrels with ice and beverages.
Wildflowers, herbs, and wheat sheaves wrapped in burlap and ribbon create an unforgettable bridal bouquet and bright red western‐style boots make walking down the aisle even more joyous! From invitation and dress style to music and venue design ─ we believe no detail is too big or too small. The occasion demands perfection. Let our design team at Indeed Décor offer inspiration and ideas for your perfect country chic wedding, from beginning to sensational end.
