How to Plan a Perfect Rustic-themed Wedding?

Nature has a mysticism, a unique charm, leaving us in awe. While some couples choose the beach, the mountains or an extravagant venue to host their wedding affair, millennials are gradually walking on the less trodden path and opting for rustic, country-side weddings. 

A rustic-themed wedding has its share of cons like overwhelming available space, difficulty to arrange for things, especially if the venue is too far from city areas and looking out for elements which will complement the overall decor. However, it has a cartload of perks which you can not miss out on! For starters, if planned well these weddings are cost-effective, more eco-friendly, you can accommodate more guests, experiment with decor ideas and have an offbeat wedding sans the monotonous ‘taam-jhaam.’

Here is a list of items you could consider incorporating in your wedding if you want a rustic-themed one:

1.Wedding Signages
