How to Plan a Rustic Wedding in London
Gardens, barns, and rustic settings have a way of making all occasions spectacular. Imagine exchanging vows surrounded by rolling hills or a rustic-themed South West venue. Giggster can help you book the best wedding venue, and these tips should help you plan a lovely occasion.
Invite Guests Early – You could plan an intimate or grand celebration, but in either case, invite guests early. The list should start with family and friends, asking them to witness your nuptials as honoured guests.
Book the Right Wedding Venue – It could be a South East London garden or house with sprawling grounds. The venue is your empty canvas. Pick a location that can bring your rustic dreams to life, and it's a plus if a dedicated team can transform the space into your vision.
Create a Menu – The fun part of planning a rustic event is creating a themed menu. Plan a farm-to-table al fresco dining experience. A professional caterer will do justice to your wedding menu, and you can find venues that provide in-house catering services.
Make the Most Out of the Space – Getting hitched in a rustic location presents an opportunity to schedule outdoor activities. Set up photo booths with themed props, create an outdoor dance floor, and hire a band or DJ.
Saving Money on a Rustic Wedding in London
London is reputedly expensive, and you can expect to spend a tidy sum on your big day here. Giggster is your first solution to spending less, with lists of affordable London wedding venues on our easy-to-navigate app. Here are suggestions for keeping more money in your pockets while planning a memorable rustic event.
Invite fewer guests.
As tough as it is to create a seating chart, it's more challenging deciding who to invite to your wedding. You'll want the closest family and friends by your side, but you can save money by inviting fewer people.
Keep the decor minimal.
Many rustic wedding venues are all about the simplicity. Keep the tables at the reception simple yet elegant, with a few classic centrepieces. Add fairy lights to the beams, and you're good to go.
Can you schedule your wedding during the week?
Most couples schedule weddings on Saturdays when everyone is available and can travel out of town, if necessary. However, you can save money on the venue hire cost by planning your grand event during the week.
