Mountain-Themed Wedding Inspiration
Rustic-yet-elegant, formal-yet-cozy, we love all of the things that come together in beautiful harmony at a mountain wedding. Plus, when you have the natural beauty of the mountains as your backdrop, things just kind of fall into place with effortless perfection.
Love & Lavender has featured a couple of real mountain-themed weddings over the years, you’ve got to have a look at them to appreciate just how fantastic they are!
Here are a few suggestions for how to get the look and make it your own when designing your mountain themed wedding:
Florals Suited to a Mountain Wedding
Sunflowers are a classic inclusion in rustic wedding flower arrangements. Some of the most beautiful bouquets feature them snuggled with other popular wedding flowers.
Freesia is also a lovely addition to rustic bouquets, particularly in rainbow arrangements. The pop of color is fabulous against the greenery of a mountain setting.
Mallard and pheasant feathers with color-forward flowers make a perfectly unique bouquet for a rustic mountain wedding.
Mountain Daisies are a perfectly delicate addition to your floral arrangements. They’re also beautiful as an understated accent to your place settings.
The Little Details That Make a Difference
It’s the details that really make wedding style stand out, regardless of what theme you choose. Here are some neat little touches we loved that would be perfect for a mountain-themed wedding:
Cool cake topper: This one is the best and you can include your doggies on it!
Table markers: So cute! These table markers will make your guests smile, and when you personalize them with your guests’ name, they’ll make a neat little favor as well.
Place cards: Pick you color and your font – these are excellent paper place cards to compliment your mountain wedding tablescape.
Guest book alternative: We’ve seen plenty of guest book alternative ideas, and we think they’re a great way to take an ordinary guest book and turn it into art. This one is just lovely!
Favors
We think wedding favors are so much fun to shop for! Here are some mountain-themed favors your guests will love.
Custom Bottle Opener: Because beer and campfires just go together.
Camping Mugs: Entirely customizable, these mugs fit in perfectly with a mountain wedding!
Personalized Matchboxes: Classic and useful. (Quick PSA: don’t play with matches in the mountains, folks…)
Table Centerpieces
Table centrepieces can really help bring cohesiveness to a wedding theme, especially if that theme embodies a celebration of nature. Just think how much you can do with nature’s bounty as your artful inspiration!
Moss Containers: Place flowers and pinecones in these earthy moss containers along with a tapered candle and you’ve the perfect rustic table centerpiece.
Birch Candle Holders: Made from natural and reclaimed birch branches, these multi-tiered tealight candle holders are a beautiful addition to your table!
Moss Table Runner: This is such a unique idea, and in an outdoor woodland setting, it looks just magical.
The Great Outdoors
In history, literature, art, anywhere man looks for inspiration, you’ll find mystical adventures and voyages around mountainous terrains. We’re thinking The Hobbit, Heidi, The Sound of Music, and more. There are so many great examples.
Maybe it’s the fresh air, the scent of pine, the gentle rustle of the wind through the trees, or all of the above. Whatever the case, a natural mountain-themed wedding lends itself to being a truly unforgettable experience. When nature works with you, great things are bound to happen.
