Gilded Flower Accents

A country theme is all about that perfect balance of dreamy and natural. Incorporating gold-gilded floral leaves into your bouquet and centerpieces give an extra pop of elegance and charm.

The gold accent is in keeping with rustic earthy tones and adds a little shimmer without going over the top. If silver or bronze is more your personal style, you can also find gilded leaves in these colors.

Earthy Green and White

Simple large white flowers, such as Peonies or White Scabiosa, paired with lots of soft greenery are a beautiful choice to compliment your country theme. These crisp colors pop against wooden elements as well as give a simple and sweet vibe.

Whether you use this flower combo in your bouquet, centerpieces, or as accents during your ceremony these flowers will look right at home in your rustic setting.

The simplicity of the white and green mimics the simplicity often found in nature and makes a floral statement without being the main eye focus.

Floral Barn

If your country themed wedding is taking place inside of a barn, consider decorating the entrance with an abundance of greenery and flowers. Loosely drape your greenery of choice all around the entrance and the front of the barn to give a woodsy feel.

Also, include floral arrangements on either side of the door to spice up the romantic vibes.

You may wish to choose flowers that match your wedding colors or stick to a soft floral pallet of pastel pink, greens, and browns to match your barn.

Rustic Floral Tree

When we say floral tree, we aren’t talking about a tree made of flowers. Actually, we are talking about covering a tree with flowers.

If your wedding is going to be taking place outside under a beautiful old tree, consider decorating the trunk.

Instead of having a traditional archway, you can create your own by having your florist design a floral backdrop against the trunk of the tree that climbs upwards towards the branches. Fill this backdrop with matching flowers to your bouquet and lots of sprawling greenery.

This is a unique take on traditional floral incorporations and adds a whimsical woodland twist to your ceremony.

Summer Sunflower Chic

If your wedding is taking place in the summer and you are searching for a more traditional country feel, then sunflowers are the way to go.

These bright statement-making florals are the epitome of a summertime country wedding and they don’t need much accompanying them.

Pair your sunflowers with some soft baby’s breath and mild greenery to help them shine. Sunflowers make for wonderful centerpieces on their own or can be used to comprise a floral backdrop that won't help but bring a smile to everyone’s face.

Eucalyptus

When it comes to the perfect rustic ambiance, one of the main elements is tons of greenery. Greenery helps blend your big day with the great outdoors in a way that doesn’t take away from the star of the show (you).

Eucalyptus is the perfect greenery to incorporate into your bouquet, centerpieces, and any other floral accents. It comes in a few varieties, like the silver dollar and seeded, and really helps to set off any flowers it is paired with.

The soft green hue of eucalyptus complements any environment perfectly without being too overwhelmingly green.

Garland Draped Ceiling

If you’re looking to curate a romantic spin on your rustic outdoor wedding, consider hanging lush green garland from the ceiling of your barn or outdoor tent.

You may wish to go with greenery like maidenhair fern, ivy, or boxwood for its fuller-looking effects.

This instantly turns your venue into a romantic woodland dream and can help you feel like you are outdoors even while being inside.

Fresh Vegetables

This may seem a bit out of the box, but if you always wanted a farm to table style country wedding consider making use of the bright colors of fresh vegetables.

Using this colorful produce mixed in with some wildflowers and herbs in place of strictly floral centerpieces will have your guests gushing over your creativity.

Rich purple cabbage, yellow and red tomatoes, bright orange carrots, and leafy greens paired with some red poppies and wild sunflowers make for a uniquely colorful and rustic explosion.

Wildflowers

It's been said that “love is like wildflowers”, and we couldn’t agree more. Which is why for your big day, wildflowers make for a great choice.

To coincide with the often-beloved simplicity of a country themed wedding, consider an array of wildflowers instead of your big traditional bouquets and arrangements.

These flowers will match your earthy vibes perfectly and their small and dainty details will be appreciated by everyone. There is always a wide variety of wildflowers to choose from and with this type of flower the more the variety the better.

All-Green Arrangements

For another unique spin on wedding flowers, consider having all green arrangements.

As mentioned already, green pops against wooden accents and of course against your white dress but does so in a soft simple way that doesn’t make your flowers the main attraction.

Having an all green bouquet can be achieved by incorporating air plants, succulents, or even something more dramatic like a king protea. All green will contribute to your rustic atmosphere perfectly and with a unique twist.
