Customize Your Wedding Aisle Runner

Weddings are supposed to be an expression of the bride and groom's personality. There are many ways to add a special touch to this very special event. From wedding favors to personalized napkins and from monogrammed floor lighting to custom designed wedding aisle runners.

Aisle runners traditionally have represented the new path that the bride will begin with her husband to be. For the most part, wedding aisle runners are normally white. Modern brides are now looking to do more unique things instead of having a cookie cutter wedding. Here are some ways that aisle runners can play a role in personalizing your wedding day.

Instead of using a traditional white wedding aisle runner, consider using a color from your wedding décor. Today, many people are also opting to personalize their wedding aisle runners with their names and wedding date.

Do you have a monogram that you love? Why not have it hand painted on to your aisle runner? Some brides are even having their monograms created by artist so that they will be unique. If you think that will add too much to your wedding budget, try having an art student create a design for you. The design will cost less and most likely will still look fabulous.

If you'd like to take it a step further, you can add a phrase to your wedding aisle runner. A few popular wedding phrases are:

* This day I will marry my best friend

* To have and to hold from this day forward

* What God has joined together, let man not separate

* And they lived happily ever after

Some vendors can now add fancy embellishments and graphic details based on your wedding theme and décor. For instance, if you are getting married in the winter months you may want to have some snowflakes hand painted on your wedding aisle runner. It is a subtle touch but it adds so much to the event.

Hint:

Have your aisle runner pulled out before your guests arrive so that they can better see and appreciate it that much more.

Gone are the days of the cookie cutter wedding. Today, brides are looking to spice up their ceremonies and show their personalities much more. If you are looking for an item that will accent your wedding just right, try a custom designed wedding aisle runner. You and your guests will surely love it!
