Fantastic Florals
Add a touch of romance to your ceremony or reception by using fresh flowers and creating a stunning floral backdrop. It can be very dramatic with a lush arrangement, or simplistic with flowers hanging sparsely from the ceiling – whatever you choose, it will look breathtaking.
Granny’s Doilies
Collect vintage doilies from your older family members – aunts and grannies – and create a soft and sweet backdrop. You can simply hang them like bunting for a simple touch, or put them in embroidery rings and arrange them to create a more solid doily wall.
Paper Paradise
Large paper pompoms, fans or flowers create a striking backdrop and you can be as creative as you want. Use the colours of your wedding theme, use different sizes and shapes, make it as big or small as you want!
Asian Art
Origami is making a huge splash in wedding decor – why not use whimsical origami shapes to create a breathtaking and unique backdrop? There are many shapes to make – from the traditional cranes to flowers or even snowflakes!
Twinkle Twinkle, Little Light
Add a touch of magic with fairy lights or naked bulbs for your backdrop. It looks incredible on photos and will add a warm and inviting ambience too! Get creative with the drapery of the lights to create a stunning look!
Natural Nature
For those couples who are lovers of nature, using elements like leaves and branches can create a very serene and calm atmosphere. You can be creative with this idea – create a huge wreath, an arch or even a magical ombre solid wall of leaves.
All that Sparkles
For a glam look – why not give the 80’s a Throwback with its Sequins! Sequin backdrops are becoming quite popular because it adds a fun and festive element to the wedding! It can be as classy or outrageous as you like – sequins are available in any colour you can think of!
Romantic Ribbons
If you are having an outdoor wedding celebration, then using ribbons for your backdrop will add a little bit of fun movement to the ceremony. A gentle breeze will cause the ribbons to flutter slightly – just keep an eye on the weather – if you’re expecting strong winds, it might be best to tie them at the bottom or utilise the idea in your reception venue.
Letters to my Love
For the bookish romantics, creating a type-orientated backdrop will tickle your fancy. You can tell your love story, use your favourite poem or the lyrics to your favourite song. This is a lovely and sentimental idea, but can be made so unique with different fonts and lengths of the backdrop – you can even extend it to become the aisle runner too!
