Last summer I saw the following pics in a bridal magazine and fell in love with the look of the curvy aisle which is how ours will be set up:


There will be flower petals in a mix of wine red, light lavender, and white rose petals lining the aisle on each side. The altar area is:

On each side where the grass meets the terra cotta cement I plan to put the 2 baskets I bought with petunia hanging baskets on them:

We went to Carpinitos today to buy 6 baskets - the two in the pic for the altar and 4 to dot along the curvy aisle, each sitting on a stand-up basket rented from the florist:

Well, while at Capinitos, FI pointed out how large the baskets are (about 24-30" in diameter) and now I'm not so sure about using them along the aisle. Partially due to size and partially due to logistics of trying to get 6 large baskets to and from the venue. Another option is instead of renting the standup baskets, renting 4 white columns and putting potted flowering plants on top of each. I don't want to waste a ton of flowers by having them cut just for this one day despite the fact that I'm having bouquets, bouts, etc. Our CPs are bowls that will be on 3 monstera leaves with river rocks and each bowl will have 2-3 floating candles and 3 orchids:

I like organic sort of feeling things when it comes to flowers which I guess is why I like the idea of live plants, if that makes sense? Anyway, hoping my fellow Knotties might have some input or ideas. TIA!
