Top 25 Rustic Barbecue BBQ Wedding Ideas

If you’re looking for a simple, affordable and fun way to celebrate your love, then a bbq wedding may be the right choice for you. This type of event is perfect if your budget is tight or if you have limited time to plan the wedding itself. A BBQ Wedding can be held outdoors or indoors depending on what time of year it is and what kind of weather conditions are expected during that time period.

What is a bbq Wedding

You can have a BBQ Wedding at home or at a rented venue. It is a good choice for an informal wedding. You can have the ceremony in your backyard and then move to your living room and other rooms if you want to invite more people. If you don’t have enough space, you can just use one room for the ceremony and reception.

Is BBQ a good idea for a wedding?

It’s a great idea for a wedding! It can be very affordable and will provide you with a fun, casual setting that is unique and memorable. There are many ways to make your BBQ wedding stand out from other weddings. You can have a casual dress code or even go all out with tuxedos, gowns, and suits. You can also serve food from the grill or as finger foods at your bar area.

You don’t need to do much decorating before or during the wedding; just set up some tables with chairs along with smaller tables for appetizers and desserts so guests can enjoy themselves while waiting for their main course (the chicken). If you want to add more color to your event then consider using paper lanterns hung up around the yard/garden area where people will be eating dinner so that everyone enjoys their time together while enjoying delicious food!

What food to have at a wedding BBQ?

A barbecue wedding is the perfect opportunity to have some delicious barbecued food. Barbecue chicken, beef brisket, pork ribs and sausage are all popular choices when it comes to what you serve at a wedding BBQ. Some people like to also have a vegetarian option available for their guests so they don’t feel left out.

Affordable BBQ Wedding Catering

If your budget is tight, look for a caterer who can work with you on pricing. The best way to find a great value is to shop around and do some research online. Ask friends and family for recommendations, too!

Don’t be afraid to ask for discounts—after all, most businesses want their customers happy. If you have a smaller wedding party or fewer guests than expected, consider going with simple dishes that don’t require as much preparation time or need an extensive amount of staff.

Tips on Saving Money on Your BBQ Wedding Catering

  • Keep the menu simple and stick to what you know. The more items on your list, the more expensive it will be in the long run
  • Avoid expensive cuts of meat. Instead of serving filet mignon, try chicken breasts or a pork shoulder roast instead. This way, you can also cut down on costs for side dishes because many people prefer to eat with their hands at a barbecue anyways!
  • Ask family/friends to help with food or even cook it themselves! You can set up an outdoor kitchenette area where guests can prepare their own dishes so that all they need is a dish and utensils (cups plates etc.), which can be purchased cheaply or even found at thrift stores around town… unless they’re fancy made-from-scratch dishes like spinach dip or s’mores fondue fountains then maybe just throw those together before having any guests over so no one sees how much time went into preparing them beforehand…

BBQ Wedding Venues

  • Beach: When you think of a wedding at the beach, you probably envision a white, sandy shoreline and clear blue waters in the background. Outdoor weddings near water offer a very romantic backdrop for your ceremony. If you want to get married on the sand or right by the ocean, make sure there are no tides that could wash away any decorations or leave footprints in your photos!
  • Park: Parks are an excellent place to host outdoor events because they are generally free and offer plenty of open space with grassy areas or wooded paths that can serve as photo backdrops. The only downside is that people who visit parks may bring their pets along with them—and we all know how much pets love eating wedding cake!
  • Garden: Gardens are beautiful places for weddings because they allow couples to create their own atmosphere using elements like flowers and greenery (which happen to be perfect for tying into any rustic theme). A garden wedding might feel more intimate than some other venues because it’s easy for guests to see everything without getting lost among other people wandering around outside somewhere else on property.
  • House: If you’re looking for an indoor wedding venue that feels like an outdoor event, consider hosting your ceremony at a home with a large backyard or patio. This can be especially great if you have kids who cannot sit still in church very long!

BBQ Wedding Themes

A BBQ wedding can be a fun, casual and relaxed affair. It’s all about the food and being outdoors.

  • A rustic feel: Think woodsy setting with picnic table seating. Add some greenery to your tables like potted plants or floral arrangements that incorporate local flora. You could also use hay bales as centerpieces or other decor elements!
  • A southern style: This is where you really get to go all out with your BBQ theme because it’s so easily incorporated in your décor. Use items like hanging lanterns and rope light as well as wooden pallets or old pieces of furniture (like an old bench) for centerpieces on each table.
  • Themed foods: If you have guests coming from out of town, this is a great way to show them what they’re missing back home by having themed food stations at your event!
