Want to use garland but don’t want as much color? Ferns offer a more muted color palette and are another beautiful choice.

2. Potted Plants

This may seem a little strange to some of you, but potted plants can really make your wedding POP! The Knot.com recently published an article on how to include potted plants into your decor. Not only are potted plants more eco-friendly compared to cut flowers, but your guests can take them home as favors!

3. Jazz up your aisle and altar

Adding flowers to your aisle can help your grand entrance seem ever more grand. The arrangements give your guests something to look at and talk about while they anxiously await your walk down the aisle! They also allow you to tie in your colors in a creative way.

4. Ceremony Markers

Let your guests know they’re in the right place! Having great ceremony markers will announce to your guests that they have arrived at your wedding. They are also often the first thing your guests will see. Think about personalizing the entrance to your venue with a welcome message or even a monogram.
