Lots of brides are on the lookout for rural wedding ideas.
After all, according to Bridal Guide magazine, “Barn weddings have never been more popular.”
And you can see why. A good farm wedding venue delivers:
- A uniquely chilled environment that takes the edge off your big day’s inevitable stresses
- A truly beautiful and natural backdrop for your photographs — and memories
- A barn for your reception that provides a blank canvas for your theme and decorative ideas — More so than most function rooms
- Fresh inspirations for your theme — From colours, through flowers to the dress itself
Rural Wedding Ideas — Colours
If you marry in an urban setting, the colour palette may be uninspiring. But a rural setting provides a whole kaleidoscope of possibilities.
And that changes with each season. In spring, you might choose a verdant green or something inspired by that season’s flowers: hyacinth blue, perhaps. Or peach fuchsia, or … well, the only limit is your imagination. Summer, autumn and winter each brings its own, different inspirations.
Carry your chosen colour palette through everything. And that includes the invitations and outfits, as well as the flowers, fabrics and decorations at your reception. You can even use edible flowers on your cake.
Rural Wedding Ideas — Themes
Your colour palette may flow from your theme or your theme may flow from your palette. Either way, a barn wedding can accommodate your ideas more easily than many other venues. Check out the dimensions and floor plans of Barnutopia’s barn.
You may think of a rural wedding as most appropriate for a rustic theme. And you wouldn’t be wrong. Those work fabulously well in a barn.
But don’t feel constrained by that. Remember that blank canvas we talked about earlier? It means you can have pretty much any theme you want.

When you wed in spectacularly gorgeous countryside, your memories will last forever. But photographs are lovely reminders.
