Rustic Barn Weddings are still the Craze this Wedding Season

If I had to pick one wedding theme to continue into the next season it would definitely be the rustic barn theme. Maybe this Boston girl is just country at heart but there is just a timeless charm with this styled wedding. There are so many great ideas for your reception decor and endless invitation designs to pick from whether it's more country floral or rustic wood. So today I'm going to share with you some wedding decor by Country Barn Babe as well as a few Country themed wedding invitations both found on Zazzle.

But first just a few Questions and Answers that Zazzle asked Country Barn Babe:


How did Country Barn Babe come into being?
My husband proposed on Thanksgiving morning in 2011 out on a trail ride with our horses. He put up a huge banner out in the middle of the trail and of course we all know what it said. He got off his horse and down on one knee and of course I SAID YES!! I had one entire year to plan my wedding, but I wanted it to be unique and different, something that would WOW our guests. I didn't want the average "Modern Day Wedding." As I started looking and planning, I was having a hard time finding exactly what I was looking for so with one item at a time I started making everything from scratch. Frustrating at times, but I found something, besides animals, that I was truly passionate about. And here we are today.

What makes Country Barn Babe different?
What sets us apart from everyone is the quality we provide! Everything is handcrafted, and made to order. Plus it’s all made in America. We also strive for fast turn around and THE BEST customer service! Most messages will be responded to within the hour!

Tell us a fun or interesting story about your business.
Last year, Country Barn Babe received a call from the NFL Players Association requesting 6 customized wooden chests to be made for the 2015 Hall of Fame inductees which included Junior Seau, Jerome Bettis, Tim Brown, Charles Haley, Will Shields, and Mick Tingelhoff. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity that received Country Barn Babe’s greatest care and devotion to make sure they had not one imperfection. This job hit especially close to home for me, being from San Diego and a diehard Chargers fan, and one of the Hall of Fame inductees was the late Junior Seau. Each person here knew what a privilege it was to have a hand in honoring a few of the greatest athletes in the league. It’s a story that will continue to be told!

The Enchanted Forest Wedding

So I just saw the movie Maleficent staring Angelina Jolie and I must have watched it 10 times since. As a small child I have always loved the magical and mystical fairytales and what a better theme to have for your wedding day. I can only imagine the excitement an event planner would have creating this enchanted forest. Brides today are really thinking outside the box and I'm seeing less and less of the old traditional. I love this about the couples today! They are making their wedding day stand out and personal to them. 

I have to share a few photos I just love from Sean Parker and Alexandra Lenas’ 2013 Enchanted Forest Wedding. Photo credits to Vanity Fair. 

 

 

If I were to plan a wedding for this theme I would have a hard time trying to pick an invitation. Keeping with the same feel of this theme here are some wedding invitations that I think you will be happy with.  There are several from Zazzle designer Jinaiji as she really captures this exact feel. However I have several from other designers too.

Zazzle's Wedding Stationery designer Jinaji has a way of capturing the mystical feel right to the paper. You would almost think you could step right into the design. Here are several designs from Jinaji.

Rustic Woodland Weddings

Would you be surprised if I told you the Woodland Weddings have become very popular for 2014? Would you ever plan one? Something about an outside wedding that appeals to me. You can make the atmosphere look really glamorous with hanging lights on trees and beautiful linens draping on the tables. Wedding outside can be just as beautiful if not more than an inside wedding.  Here are a few designs I thought I'd share with you. Which invitation below would you pick to be yours?
