Rustic wedding colors

When it comes to weddings, rustic weddings have been on trend for many years and I do not see them going anywhere soon.

If you’re planning a rustic wedding then you need a unique on-trend rustic wedding color scheme.

That’s why I’ve put together this list of 11 must-have modern rustic wedding colors.

Rustic wedding theme

A rustic wedding theme is a popular choice for couples who want to get married in a relaxed and natural setting.

This wedding style often takes place in the countryside or at a barn venue.

The decor for this type of wedding is usually quite simple with lots of natural elements such as wood, greenery, wildflowers, and vintage pieces.

A rustic wedding aesthetic is for couples looking for a relaxed, natural wedding vibe.

How to pick your wedding colors?

The first step if you already have your venue should be to look at what colors will work with your venue. Then think about the season and theme of your day.

If you have a favorite color or one with special meaning this can be a good base color to start with and build a palette with the points mentioned.

14 must-have modern rustic wedding color palettes for 2023

1. Rust and greens

Rust tones and greens have to be the perfect rustic wedding color scheme. Earthy, rustic colors that pair together perfectly to give a natural woodland color palette.

Styling Tips

Bring the rust in with the decor pieces, use lots of wood elements. The greens can come from lots of greenery.

2. Green and gray

Green and grey is a soft natural color palette and is perfect for a luxury rustic wedding aesthetic. The beauty of this palette is you can play with the shades and tones to suit any season or style.

3. Best for a spring wedding

Rustic spring greens, a refreshing stylish rustic spring wedding palette. This color scheme is simple but stylish and will create a fresh wedding aesthetic.

4. Best for a winter wedding

Moody rustic vibes all around with this color scheme. I just love this dark neutral color palette for a winter rustic wedding or event!

5. Best for a fall wedding

Green and brown just screams rustic autumn wedding to me! I adore these colors for any season though but they work so well with the natural colors of fall.

6. Woodland romance rustic color palette

Woodland rustic vibes with this color scheme. Greens and greys all mixing together to create a fairytale woodland style.

7. Terracotta and sage green

The color combo of 2022! Terracotta and green is the perfect modern rustic color scheme. A mix of boho and rustic and it is just so naturally beautiful.

8. Celestial rustic greens

Celestial and rustic and are a match made in heaven! They both tie in the natural elements and the need to connect with the natural world. Using greenery blues creates a perfect palette for this mixed wedding aesthetic.

9. rustic orange and peaches

Rust, orange, and peach are a huge 2023 wedding color trend and I see it carrying on into 2024 and beyond! Playing with the tones and shades means you can create the perfect rustic color palette for any season.

10. Minimal rustic color palette

Mixing aesthetics is a great way to make a wedding or event truly unique and personal! Minimal and rustic can in ways seem so far apart but with this neural simple color scheme followed through with the styling it could be a super sleek rustic wedding theme.

11. shades of wood

Is it even a rustic wedding without a wood slice? I must admit I try to push couples away from the typical wood slice centerpiece for a rustic vibe. Wood is a great texture though to use in interesting ways. This color palette pulls all the colors from wood making it the perfect rustic color scheme.

12. Peach, rust, and green

This palette is great for fall/autumn and winter weddings. It is a perfectly balanced palette with sage green and peach lighting the moody tones.

13. Dusty blues

Possibly still my favorite color to use in events, dusty blue. Mixed with soft blues and grays and lots of lush greenery it creates a stylish rustic aesthetic.

14. All the shades of green

I think green has to be ‘THE’ color of rustic weddings. A room filled with greenery of all kinds is definitely what comes to my mind when I think of a rustic wedding or event.
