Consider using wildflowers, sunflowers or daisies to decorate your wedding and reception. Wrap pillars, rafters, poles, doorways, balconies and railings with lights, grapevine wreaths and tulle for a dramatic and stunning effect. Hang lanterns and hanging votives for added country charm.

Fill a glass or ceramic vase with a generous amount of baby's breath. It's inexpensive and has a natural country look. Place wildflowers in tin or glass milk jugs to make a simple centerpiece.

Fill mason jars with dasies or small votive candle in the middle of each table. Scatter mason jars filled with votive candles for a more casual look. Place around the yard when the sun goes down for lighting and a romantic feel.

Set up picnic style seating or picnic tables. Serve your guest a home style meal like, fried chicken, potato salad, cornbread and watermelon. For a cool treat serve homemade ice cream and cobbler.

Fill a galvanized tub with ice and drinks in vintage style bottles. Use oversized jars filled with fresh lemonade or cold iced tea.

Give your guests rustic country candles or small jars of homemade jam, jelly, or preserves. Make homemade cookies or miniture pies for your guests with a country flair.
