Once upon a time, most weddings took place in the sacred space of a church. Guests were seated in pews where they patiently awaited the mesmerizing moment when the stunning bride makes her entrance. However, like many other aspects of current weddings, things have drastically changed. As you may know, weddings can take place virtually anywhere. Some choose to be wed on a sandy beach of an exotic location, while others choose a more intimate setting like in their very own backyard. Others prefer parks, lavish hotels and restaurants, or even on the rooftop of a building at night as the city lights sparkle below. No matter the setting you choose, there are several ways to spice up the seating arrangement for your guests. Not only allowing each guest a clear view of the bride and groom as they say their “I do’s”, but also creating a visually pleasing atmosphere.
First, there is the spiral seating arrangement which is great for a large backyard, park place, or other outdoor wedding. You are truly the center of attention, where all guests are given a great view of you and your other half while you exchange vows. And how amazing does this look in pictures?!
Another option is the round seating arrangement creating an especially intimate setting for not only the guests but the bride and groom as well. Like the sprial seating arrangement, the bride and groom are quite literally surrounded by those that love them the most!
Another rather unique and creative idea for a seating option is turning these simple stacks of hay into your guests seats for the ceremony. Different colors and patterns of cloth cover light padding that was placed underneath the hay stack. Then to add a pop of flare and elegance, beautiful wildflowers were inserted on the side. This would be absolute perfection for a shabby chic or rustic glam wedding in a natural setting.
There are so many ways to get creative with your guests seating arrangements...the possibilities are endless so don’t be afraid to try something new and daring that your guests will always remember!
