There is nothing quite like being in the mountains with the cool crisp air and the fresh scent of pine.

This small and intimate rehearsal dinner nestled in the woods is a perfect way to incorporate your love of the outdoors into your dinner. So sit back and relax by the campfire because the mountains are calling and… you must go.
Set the tone with a gorgeous rehearsal dinner invitation from Invited By Audriana. I love the rustic and woodsy feel of the invite and your guests will too! I can just smell the pine looking at these beautiful watercolor invites!
I kept the table setting fairly simple and I loved how it turned out. I draped a round white lace tablecloth over the table and added some woodsy elements.
I used wood centerpieces in place of chargers and then placed white dinner plates on top of the wood pieces. I love the unexpected charm of using the wood pieces in place of chargers, I think they turned out simply perfect.
Beautiful rose gold mercury bud vases were grouped together for a simple yet elegant centerpiece. Clear patterned wine glasses completed the tablescape with a touch of sophistication against the rustic feel of the table.
I tucked twinkling strands of mini lights inside these lovely galvanized lanterns so when the sun begins to set, there will be soft mood lighting reminiscent of fireflies for the guests to enjoy.
