Combine shocking pink Gerber daisies with soft blush rose petals for a lovely contrast.
Make your ceremony as pretty as the reception with aisle runners, chair covers and bunting or kissing balls. Accent clusters of bold Gerber daisies and soft pink peonies to form stylish arrangements to line the aisle. For ceremonies without defined altar spaces, frame the ceremony area with potted daisies, painted rocks or kissing balls. Add drama to the space with lengths of ribbon tied to tree branches, chair backs or shepherd's crooks.
Aisle and Seating
Swaths of pink tulle, pink fabric aisle runners, fuchsia satin bows on chair backs or pink cushions on benches for an outdoor wedding help create a defined motif for the ceremony area. Strands of pink ribbon or crepe paper add drama to trees and arches, especially at beach-side ceremonies or outdoor receptions with willow and oak trees. Kissing balls, also known as pomanders, made of tissue paper flowers or fresh carnations, bring a touch of soft romance to decor and, when displayed in a variety of sizes and heights, add intimacy to a larger ceremony space. Suspend tiny kissing balls from each chair or bench, or use larger kissing balls on shepherd's crooks at the end of each row of seats.
Altar and Ceremony Space
Potted flowers, parasols, kissing balls and flower petals can create a ceremony space for the couple and officiant as well as any attendants. Painted rocks coupled with swaths of tulle and ribbon form a low-profile ceremonial space while tall arches, canopies or chuppahs made of fuchsia and pink fabric and accented with flowers create bold ceremony structures. Non-floral items like topiaries made of uninflated balloons, glittery halo sticks and feathers make trendy and artistic decorations for a modern ceremony.
Flowers
Gerber daisies, blush-pink peonies, bright roses and calla lilies offer multiple shades of pink for altar arrangements. Clusters of flowers arranged along the aisle, kissing balls, scattered petals, or garlands of blossoms create drama and add dimension to your ceremony space. Add contrast with black feathers, green ribbon, orange daisies or blue crystals. Tiered flower arrangements add height to a ceremony space, particularly when paired with columns or pedestals.
Other
Pink twinkle lights, confetti, balloons and bunting add whimsy to a ceremony. Paper lanterns bring an intimate and playful air to the space while clusters of candles in shades of pink or pink candle holders create romance at an evening ceremony. Fuchsia and pink ribbon wands for guests to wave as the couple kiss, confetti or petals to throw as the couple walks back down the aisle, or parasols to protect guests from the sun of an afternoon wedding add bursts of color in unexpected places.
