Rustic weddings are very popular amongst couples who want a traditional, vintage style wedding. Planning a rustic wedding involves lots of details and it can seem like a daunting challenge at first, but here we have put together a few hints to consider when planning a rustic wedding in Spain.
Decide on a venue
You have already decided on your theme – rustic – now, as is always the one of the first steps when planning a wedding, you need to find the venue that can make your rustic, vintage dreams come true.
There are many venue options of venue for a rustic wedding in Spain. However, nothing says rustic quite like a castle in the countryside, such as Arguijuela Castle or Almodovar Castle – both examples are perfect for a rustic wedding in Spain, and we have many more at perfectvenue.es.
Create an inspiration board for decor
To stay on track with your rustic theme, a good idea is to get inspiration for your decor from the Internet. If you have a good idea of how you want your decor to be, you won’t go off theme, nor will you go into rustic wedding decorating blind. Here you can also think about colour scheme and flowers.

Photographer
When looking for a photographer, keep your rustic theme in mind. Do they have options for rustic filtered pictures? Do they have experience taking vintage themed photos?
You could think about arranging a pre wedding photoshoot with your chosen photographer so you can be sure the pictures will turn out how you expect.
Outfits
Another part of planning your rustic wedding in Spain we want to discuss is the outfits. The wedding dress is one of the most important symbols of a wedding. To keep in theme with your wedding, why not choose a rustic lace fabric for your dress? Or if you wish, you can make your outfit more rustic by choosing vintage jewellery.
