Ceremony Decor
Decorating the wedding ceremony, in addition to the reception, doubles the size of your decorating job! If the ceremony is being held in a church, temple or house of worship, be sure you clearly understand any restrictions on decorations, then use your creativity to tastefully enhance the setting. A beautiful background design where the bride, groom and minister stand during the ceremony is especially important. This is the spot where most of the ceremony pictures will take place. Brides love having a special photo area for their friends and family. |

Offer both balloons and flowers to your customers. All of the small add-ons, like corsages and boutonnieres, are the perfect place to start. They’re easy to create and your brides will love their originality. |
