Types of Wedding Arches
There are several types of wedding arches to choose from, and the one you choose may depend greatly on the location of your wedding. There are some questions you should answer before considering what type of arch to use. Where will you place the wedding arch? Do you want it at the beginning of the aisle for the bride to begin her wedding march, or do you want the arch at the point where the nuptials will be performed? Will the bride and groom be standing directly beneath the arch or will it be placed behind them? Is the wedding going to be indoors or out? If indoors, is there a stage or platform that the wedding will take place on, and how much room is there for an arch? These questions will not only help you to determine which type of arch to use, and how large it should be, but also how much decorating you can do with the arch. If the wedding is outdoors, you can use any type of arch.
The further from your guests the arch will be placed, the larger the arch should be. If you will be standing beneath the arch, it should be large enough so that you are not cramped.
