Many couples today opt for a backyard wedding in their homes or in homes of their parents, or even for at home elopements just for two. If you are planning a backyard or at home wedding and are looking for some inspiring ideas, we have them for you! Today we’ll take a look at backyard wedding arches, altars and backdrops that will make your wedding ceremony touching and that aren’t difficult to DIY at the same time.
Backyard Wedding Arches
Make a cool backyard wedding arch that matches your wedding style and theme – boho, modern, Moroccan or any other that you’ve chosen. You can make it of wood or branches, decorate with greenery, florals, hang some neutral and airy fabric or even macramé if it’s a boho wedding. You can make a triangle wedding arch, which is a trendy idea now or even use a living tree to form an arch – take some fabric and attach it to the branches to make it. You can surround your wedding arch with greenery, succulents, blooms and candle lanterns or hang some string lights on it or around it.
