Short answer
Use natural textures like wood, rope, leather and dried flowers, with lanterns, horseshoes and simple signage. Think rustic, warm and outdoorsy, not themed or costume-like.
A western style is about earthy colours and rugged materials. Use wooden crates or barrels as tables, and cover them with burlap or linen runners. Add mason jars with wildflowers, or use dried grasses and pampas for a long-lasting centrepiece. Rope details work well on vases, candle holders or as napkin rings. Leather strips can tie cutlery or hold place cards. Lanterns with candles, either hanging or on the floor, create a warm evening glow. For signage, use wooden boards with painted or burned lettering, or a simple A-frame with chalk. Horseshoes can be painted and used as table numbers or favours, but keep them subtle. A backdrop of wooden pallets with a blanket or a wagon wheel can frame the ceremony or the sweetheart table. For a personal touch, use family quilts or blankets as table throws or for a cosy seating area. Keep the whole look cohesive by sticking to a palette of brown, cream, rust and sage green.
