Out of the Woods
Simple, versatile and aesthetic, the Belen Crate are must-haves. Wooden crates are often perceived as one of the hallmarks of a rustic wedding with its wooden features and rugged appearance. These versatile crates are capable of taking on several roles from artfully arranged stands to flower boxes or photo display props. The Belen Crate is available in 5 varying shades of brown, and can also be used after the big day as storage boxes and/or incorporated as part of your home’s decor.

Going Green
If you’re not a fan of florals, the Brisa Minimalist Stems is the ideal foliage substitute.

The Brisa Minimalist Stems come uncluttered and artfully arranged in glass bottles and a complementing wooden stand, producing a minimal and aesthetically pleasing finish.

Succulents have been making a name for itself in the wedding industry of late. If you’re looking to join in on the trend, but with a unique twist, the Catalina Potted Cactus is the alternative. These prickly plants have also been making waves in the wedding industry, just like their succulent counterparts.
The Catalina Potted Cactus can cater to various wedding needs, ranging from centrepieces and wedding decor to guest favours. Additionally, the varying sizes, shapes and shades can create a soothing sight. The Catalina Potted Cactus is available in 18 variations.

Ready, Set, Glow
Illuminate your wedding venue with the warm glow from the Chiara Fairy Lights. Fairy lights tend to transform the venue to mimic a scene straight out of a fairytale, especially when paired with the ever-present greenery and earthy tones of a rustic-themed wedding.
However, if draping fairy lights throughout the venue does not appeal, you may consider pairing it with mason jars, flowers or the table centrepieces for a toned-down glow. The Chiara Fairy Lights are available in four different lengths.

For an authentic rustic vibe, the A’laya Lantern will do the trick. Lanterns exude a vintage-esque air, ideal for the theme. A double duty accessory, these lanterns can serve as both decor and a light source to set the scene for the ultimate romance. Its versatility also allows it to serve as aisle, reception or table decor and can be coupled with flowers and/or candles. Available in 4 sizes, the A’laya Lantern comes equipped with handles and can be hung throughout the wedding venue instead of the usual standing arrangements.
