Economical Wedding Ceremony Decor Ideas

By Ryker Crogan


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. The key to successful wedding ceremony decor is simplicity. Following are few affordable wedding ceremony dcor ideas that would prove to be a game-breaker for you:

Decorate Your Own Unity Candle: This is a fun and easy project that can be done in less than one hour. Go to a craft store and buy a plain, white candle that is at least two inches in diameter. You will also need to buy a ribbon (at least two inches wide) and some sequins. To assemble your own unity candle, glue the ribbon around the bottom of the candle and then glue the sequins on the front of the candle so that they spell the first letter of the groom's last name.

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.

Buy Lots of Tulle: There are so many fun things that you can do with tulle to decorate, but here are two of my favorites. The first thing you can do is create a canopy effect with the tulle. Have a few friends hang some from the center of the ceiling and then drape it down to the corners of the altar or stage. To complement the tulle canopy, use tulle to make bows to put on the pews or rows of chairs.

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
