the perfect structure to get married under

Trying to decide the perfect structure to get married under? It can be hard! Should you go with a Chuppah, Canopy, Arbor or Arch? Any of these structures is a perfect way to capitalize on the beauty of your venue, and communicate the “theme” or look and feel of your wedding. One of the most important functions for these structures is to guide your guests. If you are outside, it is hard to tell exactly where the ceremony will be happening. By placing a beautiful structure in the middle of a field, barn or even inside a ballroom, your guests will know where the action is taking place. Whatever you decide to go with for your ceremony, make sure you give it the time and attention needed to make it truly beautiful and meaningful. It’s one of the most important aspects of your ceremony, you are saying your vows under/next to it!
