From flower petal bursts to romantically lit walkways, decorating a stylish aisle instantly sets the mood for your guests and your ceremony. To demonstrate this, here are some of my favorite ways to transform your ceremony aisle.

Flower petals are a classic and romantic decoration that can be easily included in your ceremony. Whether you choose a classic color scheme or vibrant colors, add a twist to your aisle by creating a pattern or monogram with petals in the aisle. When using scattered petals, the aisle designs are limitless. Depending on the season or overarching theme of your wedding, adding in fall leaves, fabric or feathers will add a modern twist.

If you want to keep your aisle clear, decorating chairs is another way to add style to your ceremony. Adding simple pieces or floral arrangements to specialty chairs give an elevated feel, while keeping the ceremony simple. For beach weddings, adding flowers and other natural elements to the sand can help outline the aisle, in a simple and laid back fashion.

And if you have hand-chosen a venue with a naturally gorgeous backdrop, let your venue speak for itself. There is an understated elegance to beautiful natural setting for your ceremony.

The elegance of your ceremony is equally as important as that of your reception. You are getting married here – and should be decorated to create the wedding of your dreams.
