First impressions are so important, especially when it comes to making the grand entrance on your big day! Here are some beautiful ideas to get you started.

Deciding the décor for your wedding is probably as taxing and fun as picking an outfit for one of the functions! And there's not one but so many elements to it... Right from deciding the theme, to the look you want, and the colours that might be apt for your nuptial theme. Another very important factor is to consider the grand entrance to your wedding venue that will leave a lasting impression on your guests. So, here are some creative ideas you can get inspired by.

1. Go Arch Way

Are you looking for a royal-yet-elegant walkway décor? Then, the archway entrance should be your pick.

2. Plan A Light Display

Plan a showstopping light display and consider casting the entry point in a colour wash, flashing dozens of strobe lights, or broadcast your wedding monogram with gobo lighting. Perfect way to use the lighting effect and walking like a showstopper to your grand entrance.
