When it comes to rustic weddings, the most prominent décor detail is usually nature. So supplementing Mother Nature with a few of your own organic touches such as wood, greenery and wildflowers will really bring your event to life. Rustic weddings are often (though not always) held outdoors, which can make for some confusing directions (think: trails to follow or separate ceremony and reception spaces), especially once the sun goes down and the drinks start flowing. That’s where directional signage can be super helpful—but other than directionals, there are so many ways to personalize your celebration with rustic wood signs. Seriously, the options are endless: sweetheart chair décor, seating charts, aisle embellishments, chalkboard welcome signs and more. Check out the best rustic wedding signs below for inspiration.
1. Wood signs shaped like arrows point the way to the ceremony and reception sites when they’re in different locations at the same venue.
