Western Themed Wedding

janiceholt20

My FI & I are doing a Western/Rustic theme for our June wedding. Our venue is at a ranch a little south of Waxahachie & I am at a loss for what to do for centerpieces. The place is so beautiful I dont want to do too much because I think it be too much & take away from the natural beauty but I want something. Any ideas?

My friend did big jars filled with wheat. It looked really cute!

My best friend had a very country-themed wedding... she did small mason jars with sunflowers in them.

I definitely like the sunflower idea. If you want to keep the budget down you could put some rustic antique lanterns on each table.

I've seen cowboy boot vases you could always do one of those, or even a decorative tub full of flowers,

I'm thinking rustic Texas stars and horseshoes, myself.

I like the ideas of the tin cans and the wheat but also Tiffany's suggestion of Texas Antique.

Thanks for all the ideas!! I really like the wheat & sunflowers ideas. The place is called Old Bison Ranch. Its owned by the same people who own The Greenery in Waxahachie. The really cool thing is with the venue you're allowed to pick through The Greenery & use anything there you want. And they have just about anything you can think of. Here's a link if you want to check it out. I fell in love with it the moment I got there.

Oh that is beautiful! I love using wheat. Our colors are Red Yellow & Orange. And the ranch has these beautiful Black candle chandilers hanging from the trees as well as some really rustic looking black hanging lanterns. I was thinking of maybe a rustic lantern with a few gerber daisies around the base?

Oh! Nice, that was one of the places I didn't look at, but was on my list. There was a photographer blogs post recently from there. I'm trying to remember the photographer though.

I'll try to find it. They had a western theme too!
