{Trends Alert} Flower Petal Wedding Aisle Style

While some of us may enjoy a long weekend this week, for the rest it is just peeking around the corner. So for some weekend wedding inspiration, we leave you with a few pictures of wedding aisles. We are not really big fans of wedding aisle runners....it's so yesterday. But as you can see, it is now trendy to walk down a flower-petalled wedding aisle.

We, in fact, love this idea as it can go with the theme of your wedding colours. While real flower petals or freeze-dried ones are more environmentally friendly, you can also use faux petals made out of fabrics that will last longer.

But first thing first, do check out from your venue provider if they do allow petals to be used as a wedding aisle runner as some do have strict rules about it, especially in churches and on the beach.

Have a wonderful weekend and we will see you again on Monday!

{Trends Alert} Dressing Up Your Chairs

Our next trend alert is all about dressing up your chairs for your wedding guests. The trends seem to point more towards using fresh flowers and ferns to decorate chair-backs. Pick flowers that are in season as choosing those that are not may be too costly. Additionally, if you are having an outdoor wedding such as a beach or garden wedding, it is important to ask the florist which flowers are suitable especially in our warm and humid Asian weather. Withered flowers are definitely not a pretty sight during weddings.

Alternatively, you may also use other decorative items to dress up your chairs like this pretty palm leave fan that is slipped between the tieback ribbons.

To save on cost, just use pretty ribbons in bright colours for a clean streamlined effect perhaps.
