Natural Wedding Decor

natural wedding decorInstead of buying garish artificial items for your wedding décor, why not get natural wedding décor for your big day? Natural wedding décor can encompass many different items and should reflect the them or venue where you are getting married. Some ideas for a natural wedding that is back to basics include:

Beach Wedding

A beach wedding is one of the most romantic weddings you can have and one where you can not only incorporate nature, but natural wedding décor. Seashells can be strewn in your path and you can have the natural surf at your feet as you say "I Do." What can be better?

In addition to seashells, a beach wedding can incorporate natural wedding décor such as starfish, sand dollars and other sea creatures that can be used with centerpieces and scattered onto the tables. If you are having a beach wedding in Hawaii, you can use leis as your flowers and have even more natural wedding décor at the wedding.

Garden Wedding

A garden wedding can be very romantic and there are a number of gardens where you can go that will host your wedding. Here, the flowers and foliage are all around you and the entire scene is one of natural beauty.

Natural wedding décor during a garden wedding can be a trellis that can be used as a wedding arch where the bride and groom can take their vows or from which the bridal party can begin the procession up the aisle. A garden wedding is the most natural of all weddings and birdseed can be thrown, if allowed.

Woods Wedding

Nothing is more romantic than the woods. Getting married in the woods is something that many people like to do. For your natural wedding décor in the woods, you will need electric candles to light your way. Regular candles will probably be prohibited by the owner of the woods as one spark can set the place alight. Battery operated electric candles, however, can be just as romantic. A bride can carry dried flowers or natural flowers as part of her ensemble.

Prairie Wedding

Prairies are one of the most endangered natural habitats in the world. A prairie wedding, however, can be charming if you can find the right prairie. Prairies consist of tall grasses, butterflies and a lot of birds. If you are a nature lover, use some dried grasses and prairie flowers in a basket as your bridal bouquet and get married in a prairie. This will seem like something out of "Little House on the Prairie" but will be very charming and something that the guests will remember for a long time to come.

Natural wedding décor should compliment the venue in which the wedding is being held. Anything can be considered "natural." But when it is matched with the same venue (such as a basket of wild flowers for a prairie wedding) it all gets put together very nicely.

Whether you are having a beach wedding, woods wedding, garden wedding or a prairie wedding, by incorporating natural wedding décor into the wedding, you look like you are pulling everything together so that it fits with the entire theme of the wedding. People will marvel for years on how you did this and you will have the natural wedding of your dreams.
