Wedding Chapel Decoration
How to Set Up Wedding Chapel Decorations
Many brides plan for the decorations at their reception but they
forget decorations for the chapel. The wedding itself is the
guest’s first glimpse into what lies ahead at the reception. If
you are skimpy with decorations at the church your guests will
expect the same at the reception.
Your florist may be able to help you with this dilemma whether
you are on a budget or not. The wedding chapel decoration theme
you choose can be used in two places; the chapel and the
reception location.
The bride can decide on the wedding chapel decoration theme or
have the florist design them for her. Popular wedding chapel
decoration themes are back drops in the front of the church such
as small gazebos or archways.
Another wedding chapel decoration that is neglected at the front
of the church is the candelabra. These are usually located on
either side of the altar and can be decorated with floral sprays
or greenery. This will direct the eye upward to the center of
the altar and at the bride and groom.
Another neglected wedding chapel decoration is the pew bows.
These simple decorations help the family of the bride and groom
find their seats prior to the wedding ceremony. The decorations
can be as simple or as elaborate as desired.
Satin or tulle bows decorated with fresh or silk flowers will
help guide the guests to their seats. Many brides make the
decorations out of tulle bows and decorate them with silk
flowers. Simple cards taped to the ends of the pews can indicate
the family name of the guests to be seated there.
The bride may also want a popular wedding chapel decoration, the
red or white carpet. While some chapels already have this as
part of the wedding ceremony a bride may have to rent one to
have at her wedding.
Many winter themed
weddings use the red carpet as it makes a stunning contrast
with the white bridal gown when walking down the alter. Make
sure that the rug is rolled out early enough so that it doesn’t
have a lot of ripples in it that will trip the bridesmaids and
bride. The rug can also be secured with double-sided sticky rug
tape for this purpose.
Another popular wedding chapel decoration is flowers at the
archway or entranceway of the church. These create a frame for
photographs taken after the wedding ceremony.
Many florists will
create these decorations and then pack them up for you and
transport them to the wedding reception and re-decorate with
them there. This is a great idea for a budget conscious bride.
The flowers can be used to decorate tables, archways, backdrops
and the head table. Why waste the beautiful arrangements if your
guests can enjoy them at the reception too?
Your wedding chapel decorations can be as simple or elaborate as
you desire. They are an important part of your wedding day and
shouldn’t be forgotten. The creation of the chapel decorations
is simple and your florist will make most of them. The other
decorations are easily obtained and can be ready for your big
day with the help of your family and wedding party.
