Inspiration: Rustic Charm, With Just Enough Elegance Mixed In

There’s nothing better on Mondays than to browse some sweet nuptial inspiration, especially when one is supposed to be working but is actually using that first hour of the day to unfurl one’s consciousness. What better time to gaze at something beautiful than when one is slowly sipping the morning coffee? Assuming, of course, that you’re reading this at work, in the morning! And why not? I feel like today is a great day to delight the eyeballs without a lot of distractions – so I put together an image-heavy, word-light post featuring beautiful images from chic rustic weddings that were anything but cornfed. Enjoy!

    Is it wrong that the first thought I had was “I bet they had to argue with their baker about how they wanted the frosting on the cake to look”?

    “Make it messy.”

    “No.”

    “Let’s call it rustic. Will you make it messy if we call it rustic.”

    “No.”

    “But it’s all the rage. We can tie some twine around it. It’ll be great.”

    “No.”

    “A nice smooth finish in buttercream then, I suppose.”

    “Hmmph.”

    (whispered to groom) “Don’t worry, I’ll have my mom drag a knife through the icing after the ceremony. And she’ll bring some twine. Problem solved.”
