Wedding arch alternative?

Natalie, on December 27, 2016 at 6:32 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 12

So our ceremony will be held on a deck overlooking a river. I was looking into renting a wooden decorated arch but realized its costly. Does something like this alternative look okay or should we maybe try and cut costs with something else and just rent the arch? Or maybe yall have other alternative ides?

    My dad built my arch out of wood, but it sounds like you already have a beautiful backdrop. I really like the picture you posted!

    We are using two wine barrels instead of an arch. What you have there looks very appropriate and classy though!

    Two wooden doors with opening on the top half, that could work , decorated with some flowers. It can also double as a photo booth.

    I love the picture! If you're getting married in front of a gorgeous river than let the river be your backdrop. I love the simplicity of the columns in the pictures.

    I love the picture.

    You could also look for a vine arbor at home improvement stores in the spring.

    That looks great. I'm all about less is more generally speaking for decor.

    We got quotes for an arch, urns like you posted and a wild flower circle but ultimately decided against any of them because they we all quite pricey and we are getting married in a beautiful garden. I would ask you florist for a quote but those urns may not be much cheaper than the arch. You can ask your venue if they have any photos of ceremonies without decor to give you an idea of what it looks like.

    I like the pillars! we are not doing an arch because our venue wants to charge $280 for it. But I myself am looking at pillars or drapery amongst the trees.

    The picture is lovely. I'm not a big fan of the arch.
