Economical Wedding Ceremony Decor Ideas

By Ryker Crogan


The key to successful wedding ceremony decor is simplicity. Clean, elegant flower arrangements, a few strategically placed candles or some potted plants to add a little greenery are all you need to create a romantic and memorable ceremony. Less is more - which ultimately means more money in your wallet. Following are few affordable wedding ceremony dcor ideas that would prove to be a game-breaker for you:

Have a Focal Point: There needs to be some sort of focal point that you and your spouse-to-be meet at to be wedded. The focal point will act as a frame around the event. Some of the most common options are arches and gazebos. First check to see if you will have one provided to you by your venue. If not, you can buy one, rent one, or make one. Unless you are a carpenter or a handyman, you should probably opt to rent one. I suggest renting an arch since they are typically cheaper than gazebos and look just as nice.

Use Candles Instead of Flowers: Candles are a lot cheaper than wedding flower arrangements, and can often be more romantic. Use them at the altar, to line the aisle (make sure they're in fireproof bags or enclosed in glass to prevent fire hazards), or even in place of bouquets. Also, get Some Potted Plants: In the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, they lined the aisle of the beautiful Westminster Abbey with big, potted trees creating an English garden atmosphere. You can do something similar by bringing some potted plants from home or borrowing a few from a friend.

Throw Down Some Flower Petals: Even if you do not have a flower girl, you can still throw down some flower petals along the aisle. This can be done as part of the decorating process before the guests arrive. Flower petals are inexpensive to buy compared to actual flower arrangements, so if you really want flowers but don't want to spend the money, this is a great way to add them into the decoration of your ceremony.

Decorate the Altar Only: If you have a beautiful wedding venue already, there is no need to go overboard with your decorations. Perhaps all you need is a simple arrangement at the altar. Also, Hang Some Christmas Lights: If you are getting wed in the evening, white Christmas lights are a must. And if you're renting an archway, it would be the perfect place for the lights. Also consider hanging lights in some of the trees if you will be in an outdoor setting
