Of all the ways to decorate bohemian weddings, none has been quite as ubiquitous this year as macrame. The cream-colored works of art are as beautiful when used as a major statement as they are when sprinkled on a smaller scale throughout your wedding decor. If it isn’t yet a part of your wedding design, we have a feeling that at least one of these seven macrame wedding decor ideas will show up on your big day!
1. Ceremony Backdrop
We’re more than a little in love with the idea of saying “I do” in front of a stunning macrame backdrop! Whether you source a large hanging or craft a few smaller ones to hang from your ceremony arch, a macrame ceremony backdrop can do a lot to set the tone of your day.

2. Cake Topper
We realize this could be a controversial statement, but a tiny macrame cake topper might just be sweeter than the cake itself!

3. Sweetheart Chair Accessory
To keep with the look of the rest of your bohemian-styled day, ditch the Mrs. and Mr. signs and instead hang macrame on the back of your sweetheart chairs.

4. Seating Chart Display
This intricate macrame seating chart display is seriously impressive! For a simpler DIY project, use small clothespins to secure your seating cards to a macrame hanging.

5. Table Runner
We love the look of a macrame table runner placed on a long wooden table! To accessorize, use eclectic pieces like bronze bowls, vintage vases, or even terracotta pots filled with organic blooms and greenery.

6. Bouquet Wrap
Instead of a traditional ribbon or even the rustic-esque use of twine, wrap your bouquet in a small macrame weaving to add a boho touch to your bridal look!
