Neutrals on Your Stationery
A neutral invitation suite is anything but boring when you add dreamy black calligraphy. The pale blue floral accent color is a subtle yet pretty detail that completes the look of this modern rustic wedding stationery.

Velvet Engagement Ring Box
If you have an engagement ring, you'll want to keep it safe and sound when you're not wearing it. A taupe velvet ring box is classic and beautiful (and check out that gorgeous sparkling halo).

Lovely Lace
Lace wedding dresses look absolutely stunning in rustic settings. We're loving this bride's modern fit-and-flare style. The illusion sleeves add a dose of elegance while the low neckline tastefully shows a hint of skin.

Greenery Accents
Greenery is an essential detail for any modern rustic wedding. An oversized greenery bouquet is an ideal base point for showcasing your favorite colorful flowers, but we also love how fresh this all-white assortment looks.

Blue Is the New Blush
Blush has been a go-to color for rustic weddings in the last couple of years, but we personally love this 'maid wearing a soft blue hue. The almost-monocromatic effect of the pastel color against the bride's white dress is one of our fave modern rustic wedding ideas.

Simple and Chic Tablescape
The key to nailing this modern rustic wedding tablescape is the neutral color palette. Greenery centerpieces and taper candles break up the tone-on-tone colors and look perfect in a light and airy space (ahem, is that shiplap we spy on the walls?). Metal marais chairs give this table a country-meets-city vibe.

Soft and Romantic Centerpieces
How romantic is this setup? When it comes to modern rustic wedding ideas, you don't need a ton of tabletop decor to make a statement. Use low centerpieces as the focal point, and then add a few mis-matched accents, such as votives and taper candles, to create a finished look that's inviting and natural.

Polished Groom Style
Rustic attire for grooms can go beyond denim and cowboy boots. This stylish tan suit is relaxed and polished without feeling overdone for a country wedding. A skinny tie and ranunculus boutonniere add modern flair.

Calligraphy Signage
Romantic wedding signs are some of the easiest ways to personalize your decor, and they're a must-have when it comes to modern rustic wedding ideas. Put an updated spin on this idea by trading chalkboards for simple cardstock and elegant calligraphy instead.
