![]() In this last decade, the decoration in wedding ceremonies has taken an incredible and positive turn in terms of presentation and beauty. Today couples have the opportunity to say "yes" under precious arches or pergolas, coordinated with rustic, beach, bohemian or traditional wedding themes, with fabrics falling softly, hanging lights or lamps and a lot of other variables with a romanticism and absolute atmosphere. A personalized and magical way to start the celebration. So…How do we get them? The most obvious answer is to rent them. There are hundreds of companies that have pre-determined designs and others can even customise them to your wedding theme or style. Prices are varied, as you may imagine. The decorators who rent these pergolas usually are responsible for bringing the arches or materials to the ceremony and decorate on the day. Once the ceremony is finalised and the guests retire to the reception, they also usually take care of dismantling and removing everything. Pretty easy if you hire them. nother option is "do it yourself". Well, this decision is personal and if you think you have the skills, the time, the design and the materials, why not?. If you decide to do it this way, do it with a lot of time to spare. DIY can be tempting but it can also be tricky and more often than not, it will make you spend more money than you thought you would. Actually, I'm not trying to discourage you. If you are a DIY and skilled couple, you may end up with a wonderful project. Worst case, if you are not happy with your result, you can decide, to rent one instead. We have also seen an intermediate option in some places like Ikea offering a basic but beautiful artificial flower decorated pergola with an affordable price. Nothing wrong with that, if that is what your budget allows. ![]() In terms of variety, we keep getting surprised by the creativity, beauty, romanticism and uniqueness that these settings have given to weddings. We remember at first, the arches were made with tree trunks and veils, some petals and candles. Then, the trend slowly walked through the old wood doors decorated with a rustic or vintage effect, some adding chandeliers and rugs. Later with the bohemian chic fashion, we began to see garlands of leaves and flowers and wreaths, with a spiking effect for the ceremony photos. Afterwards, the use of trees as the ceremony point, was extended, surrounded once more, with natural fabrics and flowers. Some couples added touches of hipster lights, making the tree set up so modern and environmental friendly. This year, along with invitations and decorations at the wedding, the geometrical shapes, especially hexagonal ones, have taken off, and we can see them being part of the ceremony “arches”, taking an important part in this wedding season.
And to finish, we leave you with some ideas for arches to coordinate with rustic chic, beach and traditional wedding themes
