9 Essential Accessories For a Rustic Summer Wedding

* Wedding season has officially begun
* Rustic style weddings usually come with vintage-inspired décor
* Rustic style can be achieved with décor, venue and your bridal look

Memorial Day weekend marked the beginning of wedding season, which typically lasts through September (and sometimes into the fall). Rustic style is a versatile and universally appealing way to theme your bridal decoration and prop planning, and will help give your wedding day a cohesive aesthetic while still looking warm, welcoming and organic.

This broad style will also compliment a wide range of venues from winery to country to beach weddings. Rustic style often incorporates natural and organic materials such as wood, reclaimed lumber and bamboo and offers a cozy, earthy, and warm appeal to your ambiance. Rustic style isn’t just applied to decor and venue either — you can imbue your bridal look with rustic charm by adding floral accessories or vintage-inspired jewelry. Here are 9 ideas to get you started.

1. Custom Wood Wedding Ring Box

2. White Rose Bridal Hair Pin
