Personalized Runner

Tell your story as a couple through your aisle runner. This amazing DIY, featured on Oh Lovely Day, started with photos of the couple as children and progressed through their six years of dating, highlighting special moments and memories along the way. Get step-by-step instructions to create your own!

The runner also provided a fun activity for guests prior to the ceremony—the couple placed a crossword puzzle within the ceremony program, with most answers to be found on the runner.

Overhead Décor

Take your aisle décor up a notch—literally—by dressing the air space above the aisle. These three impressive aisles each utilized trees (real and crystal!) to create a dramatic effect for the bride's walk down the aisle.
