arch

Yay! Back to wedding blogging! Sorry for the long absence.



So I've been thinking about the arch for the "line." Here are some thoughts:

1. Berry garland - depending on how much we can get, I think It could look really pretty to have the whole thing wrapped in berry garland, then intertwine some twigs and branches in the middle part. We could even spray paint the archway chocolate brown so it blends in nicely. This picture isn't exactly what I was thinking, but it has more of a natural look that I like.



2. Fruit - we could carry on the fruit theme here by using a bunch of greenery garland, then accenting with pieces of fruit. I think it would look best if we could get sage colored greenery. Otherwise it might be too hunter green for what we're looking for.



3. Leaves - I've been hesitant to do too much with leaves - I'm worried we would be bringing in too many different "themes" if we are doing fruit, berries, cornstalks, pumpkins, etc. However, this would really bring in the autumn theme and may be the least expensive option.



What do you think? Regardless of what we decide to do with the archway, I think it would be a good idea to get Becky on the lookout for berry garlands soon, since we are thinking about using them in other areas, as well. They can be expensive, but she may be able to find some for us cheap.

I have more ideas for a backdrop, but I need to go workout before it gets dark outside. So stay tuned...
