pew decorations

Hey everyone-

I have a question for everyone. I am getting married outside and was wondering if I should decoration the chairs that are on the inside aisle. I'm not really a frilly girl, so have tons of tulle is not my thing. I'm not sure if it is something that is required or if it is okay to just forget the aisle decoration.

I think it is ok to forgo it but I guess it also might depend on what the chairs look like.  Are they like card table folding chairs or nice wooden chairs? Maybe some type of hook with mason jars hanging from them with wild flowers? You can google pew decor images. Ya I am not crazy about frilly tulle either so much.

I agree with PP it would depend on the chairs. We're also getting married outside and we are having Shepard hooks with Paper Lanterns on them. With a little bit of ribbon.

I'm up in the air on that as well, but what I was thinking about doing was for the first two rows on each side, a large hurricane glass vase with a large candle in it. Our chairs are almost more like an office chair, well they are black mesh like chairs, but in a basic folding chair style. So I can't decide if I think it will look odd, like I'm trying to dress up these chairs.
 Sorry I didn't provide advice on your issue, but maybe the hurricane vases would be a good idea for you!

We actually just picked out our pew decor.  I wanted to make it "personal" instead of just what they gave us, so I knew we were going to do SOMETHING   We didn't want flowers, and didn't really want open flames because they can always blow out.  We have ended up buying a few lanterns to hang on the end, with battery operated "candles".

I think its ok to leave them out.  If you don't want  anything too frilly (I'm the same way) how about tying mason jars and putting some fake flowers in them to match your wedding flowers.  Doesn't have to be a lot maybe just one or two blooms.

Something I thought about doing was having pumpkins lining the aisle.  It would match my decor and after the ceremony we could take them with us to decorate the reception.

Simple fabric tied in your wedding colors would be neat also.  You can get really creative to match your personallity and wedding, but again if you just leave out aisle decor no one is going to say anything.  People may not even notice.
