Garden Wedding: 10 Decor Ideas (VIDEO)

From old vintage suitcases to satin ribbons hanging from branches, from lanterns created with recycled glass jars to handmade paper hearts: here are 10 DIY ideas for decorating a garden wedding that will leave you speechless. Easy to make, wonderful to look at!

Old suitcases

To create a romantic and unique garden decoration for a wedding, we recommend repurposing some vintage suitcases and placing them in a charming corner. You can arrange them side by side or on a table, add some fresh flowers or potted plants, and perhaps a lantern for an intimate effect at sunset. This will give your wedding a truly evocative retro atmosphere.

Satin or crepe paper ribbons

If you have several trees in your garden, you could create romantic corners by hanging them on the branches long, delicate satin ribbons. Choose shades that complement your wedding theme and let the ribbons flutter gently in the breeze. This simple yet elegant decoration will add an enchanting and romantic touch to the atmosphere, perfect for an outdoor wedding.

Satin ribbons for wooden chairs

To add an elegant and romantic touch to wooden chairs, you can tie satin ribbons around the backrest. Choose ribbons long enough to hang elegantly, creating a soft bow. You can choose colors that match the wedding theme.

Photo wall

You can create a photo wall to remember the best moments of your story. Simply hang a few photographs printed on cardstock, perhaps with wooden clothespins, on string. Or create a backdrop with all your favorite photos.

Romantic corner with vintage sofa

Do you have an old wrought iron sofa? A wedding is the perfect opportunity to show it off! Place it in a charming corner of the garden, prop two white cushions on the backrest, and create a romantic backdrop with wooden branches, fresh flowers, and leaves. Complete the atmosphere with a light, flowing lace curtain: it'll be the perfect spot for photos or a relaxing moment with guests.

Photo corner for guests

Hang white or wooden frames from the branches, tied with organza ribbons, and transform them into original photo frames for your guests. It will be a creative and poetic way to capture memories of this special moment, immersed in nature and the beauty of the setting.

Paper hearts

Cut out red and pink cardstock hearts and attach them to long wooden sticks, then insert them into the flowerbeds at the entrance. They'll provide a cheerful welcome to guests, adding a romantic, handmade touch to the party atmosphere.

Lanterns with glass jars

Create lanterns with recycled glass jars: Insert a candle or LED light inside, decorate the edge with twine or a light ribbon, and hang them from branches or arrange them along paths. They'll create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, perfect for an outdoor wedding.

Beer bottles with flowers

Reuse beer bottles to create floral corners. Insert fresh flowers that match the other decorations and hang the bottles from branches with thin twine.

The seed ladder

Isn't this wooden ladder filled with seed packets beautiful? You can hang them using string and clothespins: each guest can take one and take home a small seed of beauty and memory.
