Wedding Chair Decoration with Flowers

Flowers often play a huge part in weddings, why not in wedding chair decoration as well? If you are having a garden themed wedding, you can consider draping the backs of your chairs in green garlands. For pops of color you can add seasonal blossoms to create more elaborate and sweet smelling garlands your guests will enjoy. If you’d rather not drape the chairs with flowers, you could consider elaborate flower arrangements to sit behind the chairs. A large and attractive flower decoration behind the seats of the couple especially, will create a lavish decorated seating. Elevating the flowers will lend to the beauty of the arrangement. Either way you are sure to end up with a pretty and inviting garden party wedding scene.
