13 Americana Wedding Details for Labor Day
While most of us catch up to the idea that it’s already Labor Day, some couples decide that a wedding-filled weekend is the perfect way to cap off the summer. Not going to lie, we LOVE this idea, and if you decide to go this route, you’ll want to check out these Americana wedding ideas! Between the rustic decor, vintage venues and of course some pops of red, white and blue, this may be the best last big celebration before summer ends.
