Barn Wedding Ideas from Brianna and Zach’s Wedding at The Barn at Chestnut Springs
Okay, this wedding day?? It was EVERYTHINGGG. It had the most incredible vibes, moody decor that felt like it was out of my DREAMS, and the kind of love that makes me wanna bawl behind the camera. And as far as barn wedding ideas, TRUST that it’s bringing the best ones!!
Get Married in the Fall
Full stop, get married in the fall. Trust me. If you only take one of the barn wedding ideas from this blog post, make it this one. Because fall in Tennessee?? It’s INSANE. The colors, the mountains, the temperatures… That’s my shit!!
A Moody Color Palette
There’s something about a fall wedding + a moody wedding color palette + a barn wedding venue that just SCREAMS hella cool vibes!! It clicks every damn time, and Brianna and Zach’s wedding was no different.
These two had a mix of purples, reds, pinks, and deep greens, and it legit looked like something straight out of Pinterest!! And that combo with The Barn at Chestnut Springs?? Good AFFF.
Fruit Wedding Centerpieces
One thing to know about me is that I eat UPPP, a fruit wedding centerpiece. It’s so unique and so modern, and it’s a detail that I’m always gonna lose it over!! Brianna and Zach’s fruit assortment that fit right into their color scheme had me gagged, and if you’re not saving these to your wedding Pinterest board RN… I don’t know WTF you’re doing with your life.
Modern Wedding Attire
Modern weddings call for cool wedding outfits, and when it’s at a barn wedding venue?? I LOVEEE. Brianna and Zach ate down in Bri’s Locket Brides dress and Zach in a brown suit and floral tie!!
If you’re looking for other unique wedding outfits for a barn wedding, I ALWAYS love:
- A pop of color – in your shoes, veil, jewelry, whatever you want, babes!!
- A cowboy hat – but, like, in a disco cowgirl way.
- Sparkly reception outfits – DUHHH!!
Unique, But Intentional, Details
Anything that adds personality is something I’m HERE for. For Brianna and Zach, this looked like cutouts of their cats’ faces at the reception, plus a t-shirt toss that had me ROLLINGGG. Seriously, though, details are what make up your WHOLEEE day, so they should always be your biggest focus!!
Sunset Photos
Need I say more???
Really, though… Golden hour photos are always a 10/10. And one of my favorite parts of the day. Because having you two somewhere on a mountaintop being fucking ADORABLEEE and in love?? That’s always why I do what I do!!
