Posted by Alexandra C. | Wednesday June 5, 20136 comments


Remember summer camps and how amazingly awesome they were? Imagine if you could capture that summer energy again at your wedding! Camp themed weddings with a country, rustic and laid back atmosphere are a fun and unique way to celebrate your big day.

There are a ton of ways to incorporate this theme into your wedding. They're sure to delight your guests and the best part is, you can totally DIY a lot of these ideas and even do them on the cheap. This is the perfect theme for backyard and intimate weddings.  
 
Tents: Have a tent for the bride and groom or for guests for comfort during the reception.

Venue: Look for lodges, or woodsy open spaces

Decor: Similar to rustic & vintage themes, look for decorations that have a sense of simplicity yet country elegance. Try wild flowers, mason jars, textured fabrics and natural fibers.

Food and Table Settings: S'mores are the obvious bet; think campfire foods like barbecue. For table settings, don't underestimate the value of a great picnic table.

Campfires: What's more romantic than a campfire? They are also great for an intimate reception and getting cozy!

I really like this idea. I had a couple who did something similar to this for their wedding, and it was a huge hit with the guests. Everyone was so comfy and cozy, and just let loose for a good time.

It's not something I'd like for myself, but I think a lot of people would enjoy a wedding like this.
