Lighted Arch Column Decoration: Perfect Accent for an Evening Wedding

The modern bride has many props to choose from whether she is planning her wedding indoor or outdoors. A favorite of many brides is the lighted arch column decoration. Popular style choices include Grecian, French, Roman, black wrought iron, chiffon draped columns and American western style designs.

Evening weddings are perfect for the lighted arch column decoration designs. Variations on this theme are the lighted French doors with lighting over the three points of each arch and accented with an ivy swag.

The Grecian version can include draped gossamer fabric behind the columns and the top of the columns are decorated with ivy and lights are wound around the length of the columns.

The roman version of the lighted arch column decoration includes having an S-shaped floor design and they are decorated with mini white lights, grape ivy with grapes and hung on the swag across the top of the archway. It is beautiful if white satin is hung behind the display.

White Grecian square columns are very beautiful if the archway is lit across the top and accented with lots of greenery and white flowers. This has a gothic look and has a lot of impact in a reception hall. It makes a beautiful backdrop for wedding pictures at the reception.

The outdoor lighted arch column decoration most popular with outdoor weddings is the wrought iron archways, oak archways and opaque columns that are lit from the inside.

The wrought iron archway makes a nice lighted arch column decoration when it is covered with mini white lights up and down the wrought iron design. The additional decorations on the archway is up to the bride, depending on the theme she chooses for her wedding.

For a western style wedding, bittersweet fruits or even small chili peppers can be anchored amongst the lights for a unique look. Also popular with western style weddings is the oak archway. The light colored wood can be decorated with the mini white lights as well and the three points of the arch can be decorated with ivy or flowers of the bride’s choice. The entrance to the archway can be decorated with sunflowers, straw flowers and clean bales of straw or hay.

The wrought iron archway is also popular with brides desiring a romantic or Victorian theme wedding. The lighted arch column decoration can be covered with the white mini lights and then decorated with flowers of the bride’s choice. This is beautiful either indoors or in a garden setting.

Opaque columns lit from the inside are popular with evening weddings that are either indoors or held outdoors under a canopy or tent. This version of the lighted arch column decoration is very beautiful in the evening. These columns and archways lend romantic lighting to evening receptions.

Additional lighting will be needed with these columns if they are used outdoors even in a tent. This could consist of the mini white lights being hung from above or even a lightweight chandelier hung from the center of the tent.

No matter which style of lighted arch column decoration the bride chooses for her wedding the guests will be impressed with her selection and it will become a photo site for attendees of the wedding or wedding reception.
