Rustic Wedding Chic by Whispering Pines

If you are planing a rustic wedding or a rustic party you may need some inspiration as you go through the process, I thought I would show off today what I think is a great inspiration board! How much fun do all of these images look together. The picture of the cabin by lake makes me excited for the warm days of summer ahead. Any one of these images would be inspiration enough but when placed all together it really helps to get the rustic wedding planning vibe moving!

In honor of the baseball season starting and spring feeling like it is on its way I thought I would show off a baseball theme wedding.

The idea of little crackerjack boxes as favors maybe a nice nod to your husbands and maybe your favorite pastime and also can bring that old fashioned Americana feel too! The possibilities are really endless when it comes to something as fun as baseball!
