Aisle Lighting

Besides usual aisle decor like flowers, succulents, flower petals and garlands and other stuff, add some light to the aisle itself, especially if you are having an evening or night ceremony. These may be candles in candle holders standing on some tree stumps or other things. you can also place them right on the ground or in the snow if there’s any. You can also hang some bulbs and lights over the aisle or the whole space to make it cozier. Don’t forget to add touches of your wedding style to the aisle and altar.
