How to Use Church Wedding Decorations for an Entryway
When your guests enter the church to attend your wedding, what
will they be greeted with immediately? Will they see a simple table with a guest
book on it, or will they be invited into your special moment in
time?
The church entryway is one of the most important areas of the
church that should be decorated. This area sets the tone for guests
for the entire wedding day. For example, if you have a garden
theme wedding, then your entry way should display this tone.
If you
have forgotten to enhance this area, then guests might be left
wondering what exactly is the theme or idea behind the wedding, and
why you have galvanized cans holding your pew flowers.
The church wedding decorations that are an absolute must for the
entry into a church are the guestbook, and hopefully someone to
greet your guests. Going to a wedding and not being greeted can
leave people wondering what to do and where they should go to enjoy
the big event.
However, if you have a wedding party attendant at
your book, then you have conquered the guest’s fear of not knowing
what to do. The attendant should be surrounded with a beautiful
setting, and should be someone who loves to smile and interact with
people.
Once this is established, then you can begin to create our entryway with an array of decorations. Elegant and unique decorations for
an entryway include small plants lining the steps, fragrant flowers,
pictures of the bride and groom and if you have a theme such as a
beach wedding, then you should enhance the area with items that fit
your theme.
You may also want to have wedding programs available for
your guests to take, so that they can be ‘in the know’ when your
ceremony has many different things going on all at once. These
are inexpensive to make, and again, if you have a themed wedding, you
can have them printed on themed paper.
Other wedding decorations that can make an entryway special are
lighting enhancements. For example, you can use luminaries on the
sidewalk outside the door, twinkle lights on the table where the
guest book is located, and even tiki torches for a beach theme
wedding. Just like the inside of the church needs special lighting,
so does the entryway.
Wedding decorations for an entryway can go from being very simple to
completely elaborate. Keeping in mind that you are setting the tone
for your guests will help you to use great decorations to make the
entry way a very special place for your guests to be guided to your
wedding.
Make the entryway an experience all within itself, and do
not forget to have someone to greet and steer your guests to the
right place. After all, you would not want a guest to be lost in a
large church, so handle them and your entryway decorations with the
utmost care and attention.
