Tip #1 - Light it up
One of the most easily missed decor essentials when it comes to your wedding, and specifically to your wedding ceremony and reception entrance, is lighting. Think about candles, chandeliers, and even table and floor lamps to ensure proper lighting in your entrance area. We even love the new neon sign trend that lights up your entrance in a new way!
Tip #2 - Make it bloom
When you're planning your wedding day flower needs with your florist, don't forget about the entrance areas at your wedding. Will you need a vase bouquet to accompany a guest book on a table? Or perhaps your entrance will feature a design with risers displaying beautiful floral arrangements for a stunning scene. We've also seen some beautiful flower walls used in wedding entrances that double as the perfect photo backdrop!
Tip #3 - Say it loud
Don't forget about signage. The entrance to your wedding is the ideal place to relay information to your guests. This may be the area where you need directional signs to show them where the restrooms, dance floor and bar areas are or you may want to take advantage of the entrance to display a beautiful sign that tells your guests about your unplugged wedding and kindly asks them to keep phones away during the wedding ceremony.
Tip #4 - Show it off
Do you have something you want to display to your guests? Depending on your venue's setup, the venue entrance for your wedding may be the perfect place to display your cake atop a beautiful, personalized cake stand. Let your guests admire your cake or another beautiful item that's special to you and your fiance as they enter your wedding day celebration.
