5 Tips for a Rustic Wedding with Locally Grown Flowers

Planning a rustic wedding? Locally grown flowers are the perfect match for a natural, relaxed vibe while staying sustainable. Here are five tips to make your special day unforgettable:

1. Embrace Seasonal Blooms
   Let nature guide your floral choices by selecting flowers that are in season. Spring weddings can feature delicate sweet peas and tulips, while late summer offers vibrant sunflowers and dahlias. Seasonal flowers not only look stunning but also reflect the time of year you said “I do.”

2. Opt for Loose and Natural Arrangements
   Rustic weddings thrive on effortless beauty. Think wildflower-inspired bouquets, loosely tied arrangements, and plenty of greenery. Using locally grown flowers enhances this organic aesthetic and adds authenticity to your theme.

3. Incorporate Textural Elements
   Add a rustic touch by including unexpected textures like dried flowers, seed pods, or herbs. These elements pair beautifully with fresh blooms and can be sourced sustainably from local growers.

4. Think Beyond the Bouquet
   Extend your floral styling to other aspects of the day. Flower crowns for the bridal party, garlands for the tables, or even a floral arch made from local blooms can create a cohesive, charming look.

5. DIY with Buckets of Blooms
   For brides who love a hands-on approach, consider using buckets of flowers to create your own arrangements. This budget-friendly option adds a personal touch and ensures your wedding stays aligned with your eco-conscious values.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
