According to Wedding Wire, October was the most popular month to get married for the fifth consecutive year, and nearly 50% of fall ceremonies take place outdoors. Combined with health benefits for open-air events,  we will likely see this number on the uptick.

But whether the event is outside, or you are tasked with creating a forest path indoors, these bushes, stems and sprays are the elements needed.

Seemingly hand-gathered, lush ferns, full thistles and wildflowers fill containers. Mossy paths are literally represented in faux moss wall tiles, vines and orbs. Similarly, faux willow and twig sprays give the impression of the naturally fallen branches of the forest floor. Grapevines are hand-spiraled with lifelike greens into wreathes.

Containers take a back seat with simple lines to balance the wispy floral material. Matte finishes of stone align with the earthy feeling. And natural colors help achieve an effortlessly monochromatic design.

Your bridal client is likely interested in artistic self-expression, the serenity of nature, or is simply seeking a more casual, natural, feeling. Thus Forest Path achieves this bohemian style. In addition to the floral material, cotton lace and other natural fabrics are layered for texture and interest.
