There are two kinds of people: One who want big, fancy weddings with a wedding planner who takes care of everything, and the other who want an intimate, rustic setting that only a home can provide. If you happen to belong to the latter category, you should start thinking about home wedding decoration ideas. To help the DIY wedding couple save more money, we have rounded up a few helpful home décor ideas that will inspire you to take on a project for your wedding.

Create an Entrance Arch

Instead of the hustle of finding a wedding venue, make your backyard the place where you wed the love of your life. If you are thinking of doing so, you need an enchanting entrance to walk through. There is nothing more regal than an entrance arch, which is very easy to create at home. Finalize the entrance spot, create an arch using pliant pipes or wood branches, and adorn it with florals and greenery.

Decorate the Altar

When you are doing a home wedding, it is important to put special focus on how and what the altar will look like. After all, it is the most magical place where you and your better half will make the eternal vows. Depending on the theme of the wedding, you can pick what sort of altar you would like. For instance, if you are going for a rustic wedding, a wooden arch with hanging lamps should set the mood. On the other hand, for a magical feel, a flower-studded arch will serve perfectly.

Hanging Fairy Lights

Whether your wedding ceremony is during the day or evening, choosing the perfect lighting to set the mood is crucial. You will get lavish chandeliers, paper lanterns, or bare bulbs in a wedding venue, and you can customize the lighting for your home wedding. If you have a tree in your backyard where you’ll host the ceremony, then create an enchanting forest vibe with hanging fairy lights. This look will serve the purpose whether it is day or night.

Experiment With Florals

Floral arrangements make a wedding feel special and romantic. One of the best ways to incorporate them into your home wedding décor ideas is to go big and give them shape. You can wind vines around a pergola, create a flower arch, or a floral wall made up of flowers that are gifts for your guests. This will bring in a fairy charm to the home wedding.

Make It Candlelit

Who says candles only belong on the romantic dinner table? Create an elaborate setup with giant pillar candles carefully placed inside glass holders, or use battery-powered flameless candles to stay on the safe side. The candlelit aisle will evoke an ethereal charm to make your wedding day memorable to anyone who attends.

Set the Tablescape

Table setting needs to be perfect, but rather than stressing who sits where, focus on the tablescape. Pick a color scheme, choose comfortable chairs and tables, and pick out linens, candles, and florals. The table setting must echo the theme of the entire wedding decoration. To get out of your head, think you are hosting a very big holiday lunch, with a specific color palette.

Foliage Centerpieces

Create natural centerpieces with seasonal foliage to save money and add a personalized touch. You can consider using dried flowers paired with fruits and vegetables to form beautiful table displays. Ferns and other foliage will make a great choice for a DIY home décor.

Use Areas and Stations

When hosting a wedding at home, it is wise to utilize different areas and stations sparingly. Consider creating specific areas, such as a cocktail lounge, dessert stations, or a cozy photo booth. This will make the setting more intimate, providing guests with different areas to mingle. Add pretty banners and string lights to enhance the ambiance and make it more fun.

Add ‘Just Married’ Sign

DIY your own ‘Just Married’ sign, adding a personalized touch to this classic wedding sentiment. Get a large wooden board to create this sign. Print a template and write it in either your or your partner’s handwriting, making it that more special. It will decorate your wedding reception beautifully.

Make Your Big Day Special at Home

Getting married at home may seem unusual, but if you are seeking a minimalistic, intimate wedding, it is the perfect solution. With these DIY home wedding décor ideas, you can create the wedding of your dreams without burning a hole in your wallet. You need to pick a theme, whether it is rustic, romantic, modern, or vintage. The materials you use and the color schemes you focus on make the difference. Adding something intentional, such as drapes, lanterns, or personalized touches, can transform a space. You don’t have to break the bank, either.
