Church Wedding Decor Essentials to Consider

When it comes to wedding decor, there are a few key essentials that can make or break the overall vibe of your church ceremony. Choosing the right wedding decor is all about knowing what will complement your venue. If you're getting married in a grand church, for example, you'll want to go with something over-the-top, but if you're tying the knot in a more intimate chapel with less dramatic architecture, then simpler arrangements might be a better fit. While there is no denying that churches are stunning on their own, adding wedding decor can take your ceremony space to the next level. If you’re all out of wedding decor ideas to inspire your own, fret not because we at The Interior Collections have prepared some decor ideas that you can consider.

1. Create an Aisle with Greenery and Flowers

There are several beautiful ways to decorate your wedding aisle. But can there be anything more romantic and dramatic than full, lush greenery and florals leading the way? Wedding flower arrangements are one of the most important details to consider. They add beauty and life to the setup and can really help set the tone for the overall wedding aesthetic. Whether you plan on bringing the outdoors in with a garden-themed wedding or have a floral welcome that will leave your guests in awe, perfecting the balance between flowers and greenery adds a fresh aesthetic to the space. You can even play things up by leveraging the versatility of the florals and fillers. For example, if you're going for a romantic vibe, choose flowers that are soft and feminine. If you're going for a more modern look, then opt for blooms of bolder hues - the possibilities are endless with these gifts from nature.

Our stunning Danish Seamen’s Church wedding decor, for example, comprises beautifully arranged sets of fresh flowers with greenery. From pew decorations to blooms and props surrounding existing columns in the church, the natural architecture of the church is leveraged to bring the entire space to life. 

2. Play with Pampas Grass

Most weddings feature bold pops of colour. From the wedding bouquet that will be held in the hands of the bride to the altar displays, vibrant hues that complement the celebration are bound to be splattered across the space. However, it is easy to go overboard when playing with colour. This is where playing with neutrals comes into the picture and there is no better way to inject some subtlety to the venue than with pampas grass. Easy to corporate and make cohesive with any theme, that natural palette of the pampas grass will do wonders in tying all the wedding decor and flower arrangements together. 

Take a look at our flower arrangements at the Telok Ayer Methodist Church for some inspiration. Beyond giving you the option to choose between two types of florals - fresh or artificial - playing with pampas grass is the name of the game. Bringing a modern wedding theme to life with pampas grass rising from the pews, this wedding decor takes the simple wedding aisle up a notch.

3. Keep It Simple

There is no shame in taking a practical approach to church wedding decor. Whether you are working with a tight budget or simply do not want the wedding decor taking the attention away from the main event, sometimes it simply makes sense to let the style and architecture of the church speak for itself. If that’s the route you’ve chosen to go down, framing elements like the pews and adding statement wedding flower arrangements to these areas will make an impact. 

If you are looking to frame and enhance the various features of the church by installing flower arrangements or greenery, incorporating a few simple blooms like what was done for Dempsey is worth considering. The Mini Bouquets that were attached to the pews are surely a minimalist way to decorate a church. While they might look like little wedding corsages tied to the pews, these classy and elegant arrangements that are accompanied by a delicate ribbon, complements the stunning interior architecture of the church.

4. Add Delicate and Whimsical Touches

One of the most beautiful ways to decorate a church wedding aisle is to pair a bouquet of fresh flowers with delicate pastels and whimsical touches like lace, tulle, or organza fabric. With most features in the church being structured and rigid, soft and elegant flowers and decor that add an organic touch will elevate the overall vibe of the space. 

Our beautiful church wedding decor done at the Living Hope Methodist Church is a stunning example of this. Pairing bright coloured blooms with light materials that flow down to the floor, a sense of cohesiveness is established from one end of the aisle to the other, seamlessly drawing the eyes of your guests to the altar.
