Invitations 

Handmade paper invitation with pressed seeds would convey to guests that the wedding has a country touch.

Fruit painted or stenciled onto the invitations.  Photo with fruit and vellum overlay with invitation wording on top.  Perhaps a photo of an old barn or split rail fence and country scene with vellum overlay.

Colours

Tangerines, corals, and apple green with white and yellow touches.

Flowers 

Dahlias, Gerbera Daises, Cockscomb, variegated Euonymus or Lambs Ear.

Décor 

Green and white gingham tablecloths and white slatted chairs or white cotton chair covers with Hypericum berries tucked into the bows.  Have plain silver flatware and crystal stemware with fruit etched into the glass and white china adorning the tables.

Wreaths with wildflowers and fruit, such as tangerines, limes, small apples and peaches with Hypericum Berries.  Centerpieces with orange/tangerine Dahlias, Yellow Gerbera Daisies and coral Cockscomb and variegated Euonymus would look lovely, add Hypericum Berries to give it the country look.

Another great idea would be mason jars with apple or light green polished stones at the bottom, fill with water and add coral or tangerine-floating candles.

Wheelbarrows or other farm implements scattered about with pots of flowers arranged artfully around them.  Hold the reception in an old cleared out barn.  Round tangerine, coral or apple green paper lanterns would jazz things up.  Granny Smith apples on each plate with place cards tacked on with straight pins.  The apples can be eaten later.

Cocktails 

Light drinks such as Gin and Tonic garnished with a lemon or lime is nice on a summer day, along with The Lemon Liaison and Day-O Punch.  Something for the D&D’s and abstainers is a non-alcoholic Peach/Cranberry-gingerale punch with floating peach slices.
