Top 10 Best Wedding Ceremony Arches

The ceremony is arguably the most important part of any wedding. When you’re walking down the aisle, standing in front of family and friends, and exchanging vows, you want the atmosphere to look tailored and elegant. This is easy to achieve if you’re getting married in a church or religious institution, but if the ceremony is taking place elsewhere, a bit of decor can go a long way in bringing the ceremony to life and making it look like the special moment it is.

A ceremony arch is an easy way to provide structure to your ceremony, anchoring the end of the aisle and drawing attention to the bride, groom, and bridal party. Not only does it provide a gorgeous natural frame and backdrop, important for photographs, but is something guests will appreciate as they watch the ceremony take place.

Arches are typically inexpensive on their own, and can be brought to life with a small amount of floral or greenery, either artificial or real. They’re also easy to transport, and most can be assembled on site easily and quickly.

Shop our top picks below, ranging in cost from under $20 to over $200.
