Barn weddings are inherently rustic, but there are plenty of ways to elevate your look with a little bit of romance. From fragrant flowers in mason jars to twinkling lights and personal details, the list of unique decor ideas for your barn wedding is endless! Incorporate repurposed wooden elements to create an earthy and cosy feel, for example, using old barn doors as backdrops for lounge vignettes. Wooden tables and chairs also add a touch of natural beauty, especially when embellished with lace and burlap.
If your venue has a tree canopy, hang rambling greenery and tall floral arrangements from the rafters to create a magical indoor ceremony space. For the reception, you can use similar elements to decorate the dining and dance spaces. If you don’t have a tree canopy, create a focal point in your barn by framing it with unique displays, like lanterns or an oversized rustic menu, for example.

Another great way to add a romantic feel to your barn wedding is with a s’mores bar. This is a fun dessert option that will keep guests entertained while they wait for their table or enjoy cocktails outside before dinner.
For a classic and elegant option, try hanging lace, burlap, or paper lanterns from the ceiling or walls of your barn. Choose white lanterns for a traditional option or colourful ones for a more festive look. You can also use them to display signs or a personalised message for your guests.
