Farms – Barn Weddings. A farm surrounded by hills is the perfect place to get married. If anything, you will capture the most beautiful photos in a countryside setting. It's a plus if the farm has resident animals or if there's a nearby lake.
Ranch Locations – Themed Weddings. Barn events embrace the outdoors and allow everyone to get close to nature. A red barn and horse stables are features you'll find in such a location, providing many photo shoot backdrops.
Vineyards – Outdoor Weddings. A vineyard can highlight the romance of your special day. The grounds create a beautiful outdoor venue for your reception, and you can exchange vows amidst grape fields.
Event Spaces – Modern Farm Celebrations. Most event centres can accommodate customization for themed events. Introduce wooden accents and farm-chic features to transform the venue into an ideal themed event setting.
Hotels – Civil Ceremonies. Hotels can host barn-style, intimate weddings, and best of all, they can accommodate your guests. Choose a location with barrels, barn-style doors, and other farm-centric furnishings. Decorate using fairy lights, lanterns, and wooden accents.

Hire a Wedding Photographer – A wedding is a special occasion you should document, and a professional photographer can capture the day's beauty. You can also hand guests disposable cameras and collect them after the festivities, giving you different points of view of your grand occasion.
Invite Guests Early – Whether an intimate or a large event, you should invite guests early. Friends and family should receive invitations first, and you should also ask them to RSVP. Remember that your guest list determines how much food you should order and the ultimate wedding venue to rent.
Plan your Menu – Planning a farm-chic wedding is the best excuse to serve an alfresco-style feast. Treat guests to a farm-to-table experience, including drinks served in mason jars and wooden pallet beverage stations.

Decorate in true rustic style.
Use old barrels with a wooden slab top as your drink station. The bride and groom's table can be a garage-sale-sourced table and chairs. Simple table centerpieces are ideal for the rustic theme as well. Use your creativity while keeping things minimalistic for a true statement theme.
Serve a buffet or potluck.
Buffets can be beautiful—and less expensive. Potluck is a fun option as well, or recruit a team of family and close friends to help you prepare delicious food in advance for the buffet table. Decorate the buffet with mason jars and burlap.
Rent a farm-style estate.
Convenience can cost less when organizing a farm-themed function; therefore, book a farm-style estate. You will also spend less on food and transportation costs when you hold the entire event in one location.
