We recommend decorating the entrance of your venue to instantly set the scene for your wedding guests. You can do this using floral design or wedding signage – wedding welcome signs and directions are always a lovely idea for your guests.

Wicker baskets, tool boxes & vintage trugs decorated with flowers in jars, on log slices and with tea lights and candlesticks. Take your pick!

Wedding Ceremony Décor & Styling
