This rough wood frame with sides and top glass can be used as a lantern or to display a flower arrangement. It’s made with a lid featuring an old style lock hook hinge.

The vintage hinged lid ads a lot of rustic charm to this pretty table centerpiece. Surround the bottom of the box with baby breath flower to make it look romantic and lively.

With 22cm wide by 32cm high, it’s big enough for a wishing well box too.

Its rustic charm makes it a unique alternative to the traditional guest book where your guest can drop in a message for the newlyweds to read for years to come.

In fact, lanterns of all shapes and sizes can make guest table decorations outstanding and authentic. Decorate them with flowers and leaves to make a pretty centerpiece during the day.

For safety reasons, use a LED tea light to create a warm ambiance in the evening. Or you can add two or three different size candles around your decorated lantern.

Table Numbers

Table numbers are a must-have for a wedding with 6 guests tables or more. Why not combine the pleasant and the useful by adding a country feel to your table numbers?

These salt and pepper glass bottles have found their way back to the guest’s tables as a place card holder. These can be used for all sorts wedding table stationery and also as a mini flower vase.

Glassware

I love when wedding favors are practical, reusable and customized. This Mason jar drinking glass and beer mug are exactly that.

These are perfect to use as the actual glassware on the guest’s table even outdoor as they have a sturdy design.

The beer mug and mason jar can be customized with your guest names serving as a guest favors. Another benefit of having your glassware personalized with your guest’s names is that they also serve as placards.

Unique Ideas To Interact With Your Guests

Bubble Wands

Since throwing confetti is not a welcome tradition at all ceremony or celebration venues, soap bubbles can be a great alternative.

In fact, many venue owners forbid the use of paper confetti, sequins, feathers, etc. due to the obvious mess that is left behind for them to clean.

I’ve even heard of people throwing popcorn at the newlyweds…

While it may be tempting to catch one or two on the fly with your mouth, it’s not the best idea.

Unique and fashionable this starry night theme drop box comes with 100 wooden hearts for your guests to sign and put in the box.

This chiffon fabric sash features a delicate embroidery at each end that conveys a country vintage feel to it.

It can be used as a table runner as well as cocktail table bow by tying it to the leg over an open weave linen tablecloth.

A beautiful detail that adds charm and character to any country wedding theme decor.

The rough finish and textured look of burlap and twine, give structure to glass vases and candle light holders. Lace and linen provide a delicate and elegant look that balances the yarn’s coarse aspect.

The Wedding Arch

The wedding arch is one of the simplest structure to build.

Arches use to grow wine grapes and other climbing plants have to be made of a solid material like wood or cast iron to support the weight. They have a visually interesting structure and cost 200$ or more.

A simple and plain wedding arch cost about 20$ to 40$. They are usually sold with no decorations and therefore are not aesthetically appealing.

Therefore, you can create your own decor based on your wedding theme, colors, and personal taste.
Common materials used to make a country wedding arch are lace, burlap, bark, branches, foliage, flowers etc.

There are tons of possibilities to make a cheap but elegant looking arch.

Since it’s beautiful in itself, you don’t have to hide it using lots of decorations to have a gorgeous rustic wedding arch.

Plus, if you have a backyard, it’s one of the rare elements you get to keep as a tangible souvenir of your wedding day.

Tree branches, mason jars, burlap bags, old fashion ribbons, and lace are only a few elements that are used to make the type of finished products you can find in stores and online.

If you have sewing skills or know someone who does, making your own table runner and other easy sewing projects will definitely help you save.

The more items you’ll need the more you can save. In fact, crafting some of the decor items is one of the inexpensive ways to add warmth and tradition to a wedding.
