Without placing too much importance on it, your wedding decor kind of frames your whole day.
It helps to set the tone and atmosphere for the occasion, can reflect the bride and groom’s personalities and is also what you’ll see in the background of photographs for years after.
Lots of couples nowadays like to do their own decor for those reasons, which is probably why Pinterest is such a popular tool for wedding planning.
Whether you’re going for a glitzy gold theme or want to set a calm mood in your venue with elegant neutrals, you’ll find more inspiration and DIYs on there than you ever thought possible.
One wedding trend the site has reported seeing an increase in lately is suspended flowers from the ceiling.
It’s a fresh, colourful touch that would work for either your ceremony or your reception.
Hanging flowers would make a lovely alternative to the ubiquitous flower wall too and are ideal if you’re going for a rustic or boho theme.
On a practical level, hanging flowers from above rather than having them as centrepieces could help to clear some much-needed space so your guests aren’t all on top of one another when the food is served.
It’s the kind of touch that you could be as dramatic or subtle with as you like but remember to take into account practical concerns like whether a child tugging at a flower overhead could pull the whole thing down.
