Hot Wedding Trend Alert!! : Decorate the aisle with a monogram

I have to say one of those things that I think is a REALLY neat idea and something that I would like to see a LOT more of (hint hint brides!) is a monogram on the aisle.  Whether it is a monogrammed aisle runner in a church or a neatly placed FLOWER monogram in the grass for an outdoor ceremony, they add such a pop of color and a touch of class to ANY ceremony.

This monogram (above- “P” monogram) was created with Rose petals by the fabulous Suzi Hjorth at Magnolia Floral Design for Mackenzie and Chris Powers’ ceremony at the Andover Country Club in Lexington.  A simple drape between the chairs was a gentle urging for the guests to enter the aisles from the exterior so that the monogram would stay in place until after the bride walked down the aisle.

This aisle was done in Daises for Chelsen & Dackery Larkey’s Wedding at Cumberland Falls.  Their ceremony overlooked the falls and this monogrammed aisle was among MANY sentimental parts of the ceremony.

Or… if you are not that crafty you can always just fill the entire aisle with petals like Ruth at Carol Lynn Originals did for Kimberlee and Denver Haddix’s ceremony at Talon Winery.  It was also elegant and added just the right pop of color to the aisle!  A lot of people forget that the AISLE will be in ALL of your wedding ceremony so it really is important to decorate it if you can.

Here are some other great ideas from the web:

Mackenzie & Chris’ Andover Clubhouse Wedding

Mackenzie and Chris were married at the Andover Country Club in Lexington.  The wedding was coordinated by Jackie Lee of Every Last Detail Wedding and Event Counseling.  The Floral Design was by the fabulous Suzi at Magnolia Floral Design.  Cake was by Tinker’s.  I think that was the hottest wedding of the year but no one was deterred!  The club was elegantly draped with gorgeous decor as was the ceremony location.  My personal favorite touch was the rose petal monogram in the aisle!!!  The day culminated the breathtaking entrance of the bride into the ceremony riding with her Daddy in the horse drawn carriage.  Very magical and VERY Cinderella.  Everything a little girl dreams of.

Mackenzie and Chris,

We wish you nothing but blue skies and laughter for the rest of your lives.  We hopes that your paths are straight and that life hands you roses that sparkles like those in your bouquet.  We wish you happiness, wealth and all the love that you can find in the world!!!

Troy and Amber
