Country chic is what we do best at Longmeadow Event Center, a premier northern Colorado Wedding Venue. If you’re dreaming of a perfect country wedding, we can help you fulfill these dreams. We have gathered the best country wedding ideas to help you plan the perfect event.
Start with a Sexy Wedding Dress. Lace, as classic as it is beautiful, always lends itself to the sweet simplicity of country chic. Be sure to pick a great gown that pairs well with your favorite boots.
Or, say lace isn’t your thing. Any country bride can surely rock a gussied up camo gown. Here, traditional meets fun with camo roses and a peek-a-boo camo train.
A country bridesmaid would definitely be comfortable in a flowy, sheath gown. Soft hues highlight the beauty of the bouquet’s elements and also mirror the colors seen in spring and summer.
Of course, you can always go with short dresses for your bridesmaids. Make sure to show off your favorite cowgirl boots on your girls too. Soft cotton fabrics will be comfortable and are natural products found in the countryside.
When it comes to country weddings, the groom and his groomsmen need not be in tuxedos. Make sure your country gentlemen are at home in their favorite boots, jeans and hats. Here, dress shirts and matching vests create a country classic look for your men.
For the guys’ boutonnieres, create a uniquely country touch by reusing shotgun shells (and we have lots of shotgun shells at Longmeadow Game Resort!) Add feather and flowers to compliment your colors and finish off with matching colored duct tape. This is one of our favorite country wedding ideas!
For table dressings, add wild flowers and vines to more traditional wedding flowers. Use accents of lace ribbons, antique glasses, and mason jars for beautiful décor that is perfect for a barn style wedding.
Remember, the bridesmaids bouquets can also double as centerpieces after the ceremony. A little water in a mason jar + bouquet = awesome centerpiece.
Gotta love mason jars. Nothing says country so much as these gems your grandma used for her famous jam or memories kicking back, sipping sweet tea from a jar. Keep the sweet simplicity of the country alive by using mason jars as a beautiful chandelier. Drop in tea lights or stringed lights. These chandeliers create a soft glow that’s simply magical.
Tulle can be used to add a delicate touch to any country wedding. A sash of tulle dresses up the chairs in your colors, while lights wrapped in tulle create a dreamy glow. Don’t forget the whiskey barrels and lanterns like those used at this wedding at Longmeadow.
This lovely Longmeadow wedding pairs traditional wedding flowers and vases with bouquets of wildflowers, mason jars, and natural wood pieces.
These same elements, along with a beautiful flowering heart wreath, were used to accent the country doors and burlap on our outdoor raised wedding platform.
No one can forget the tastes of good home cooking. Make sure the menu at your country wedding leaves the same great memories. When it comes to country wedding ideas, choosing the perfect meal is essential.
And why not display the menu in a country way? Stencil in the delicious choices on natural wood…
Or, display the menu on a beautiful poster complete with boots, wagon wheel, and your favorite flowers.
Give guests a delicious way to wash down that home cooking with country classic beverages.
Your wedding cake can be the picture of the outdoors with artistic creations like this. Capture the beauty of the countryside in a yummy way.
Make sure to take some time for each other and a beautiful sunset shot in the field…
Or capture a timeless moment under a boundless sky by our exclusive Longmeadow raised wedding platform.
Last but not least, don’t forget to add yourself and your girls to Longmeadow’s Bartop Brides gallery of fame.
