This is absolutely my favorite way to dress up an outdoor ceremony site. Everyone always decorates the aisle. Sure. It's great. And it's also anything but unique. Still, I think some attention should be placed there. however what is almost always missed is the back row of chairs. Note that I said back row- not all rows. Sure you can do every seat, but really, you can get away with just the back row and make quite the impression.
There will be so many photos from behind your guests, and it is the first thing your guests will see as they arrive- so why not take advantage of the design opportunity?
Things you can do:
- Chair Covers
- Chair Sleeves/drapes
- Garland (Flowers, shells, greenery- like Italian Ruscus, ribbon)
- Paper Lanterns
- Paper Mache Letters
- Bows or sashes (ok, not my favorite- but they can look nice if done properly)
