Consider Column Wedding Decoration for Your Big Day
Adding columns to the decor of your wedding ceremony setting can
provide a touch of elegance and splendor to the affair. Column
wedding decoration may not be necessary, but it is an option you
should consider.
Like everything in a wedding, the column wedding
decorations you choose depends on the wedding theme.
Columns for decorating a wedding come in many shapes, sizes and
colors.

For a traditional wedding theme that employs black and white
wedding decorations, you may want to go with the Roman column look.
Your best choice would be white fluted columns. These props come in
two standard heights, eight feet and four feet. The four foot
columns are typically called pedestals.
Another prop you should consider to decorate your wedding is
balustrades. These are typically four foot or two foot high
assemblies consisting of a rail supported by posts. A balustrade
makes a useful wedding decoration because they can be used to
section off areas at wedding ceremonies and wedding receptions.
Again, for a traditional themed wedding, you probably want to
go with the rich Roman column look, so use white balustrades with fluted balusters.
To spruce up the white columns and balustrades, consider decorating
them with wedding flower arrangements as floral topiaries.
You can also add tulle
decoration to the mix by wrapping it around the columns
or draping it from the top. Coupled with
floral wedding decorations,
this creates beautifully romantic wedding decor. Add mixed strings of
pink, white and ivory balloons anchored at the tops of the columns to
create a wedding column arch.
If you’re decorating for an
Asian wedding theme, think red, white
and black. Think fans and dragons. One decorative wedding column
idea would be to create square columns with white background and
black crisscross lines to create a paper house look. For an little
extra touch, you may want to
use glossy black painted wood slats to make the crisscross design.
Add topiaries in the form of giant decorative oriental fans or
bonsai trees. Again, to create a wedding column arch, use a fat
string of red balloons anchored to the tops of the columns. Finish
decorating each column by hanging small round paper lanterns from the
column crowns.
By doing a little imaginative brainstorming based on the wedding
theme, wedding column decoration ideas will begin to pour forth. For
the traditional wedding, you may be able to rent the columns from a
party or wedding supply store.
If you want column wedding decorations that are out of the ordinary, you can try searching
online wedding party decoration stores. I recommend
Shindigz.com
as they have quite a few cheap themed kits and props you can
purchase to decorate your wedding ceremony or wedding reception.
They also have white fluted columns and balustrades at reasonable
prices.
