Location
Location is key to any big day. If you’re hoping to have the perfect shabby chic wedding, decide on a very simplistic location, that offers natural charm. Some spots that work well are converted barns, venues on the beach, vineyards and even farms.
Colour Scheme
The most important thing to remember when considering your colour scheme is that less is more. Choose a neutral palate that can easily blend throughout all decisions including the decorations, bridal outfits and flowers.
Dress code
Choosing a dress code is a great way to let your guests know how formal your wedding will be. To give your big day a relaxing feel, choose relaxed-formal; this code looks smart, yet comfortable, and is perfect for a shabby chic wedding! You can also incorporate this into your bridal party, for a well-rounded dress code.
Decorations
The way in which you decorate your wedding will have a huge impact on the overall atmosphere. Some great and simple designs include subtle candle lighting, draping flower designs, hay bales and unique place cards—just to name a few.
Personalised stationery
There are so many ways to personalise your wedding stationery in order to make it shabby chic. From choosing brown paper to floral designs, the world of stationery is much bigger than you think. Talk to your local wedding stationery company to see how they can help.
Wedding favours
Incorporate your shabby chic theme into every aspect of your big day—including your wedding favours. A great wedding favour idea is giving guests little pots of flowers, or even seeds that they can sow in their own back yard. Whatever you choose, just be sure to keep it chic, earthy and simple!
Photographer
Perhaps one of the most important tasks of all is choosing the right photographer. You want to make sure they completely understand how you vision your big day, right down to the little details. Be sure to always look at their previous work, as well as having a detailed sit-down meeting before booking.
Flowers
Flowers are a hugely important aspect to any wedding. To get the best advice on what florals to choose for your shabby chic wedding, it’s best to talk to your local florist. They’ll know exactly what flowers to use, and how to use them!
