    I prefer arches as example of artwork used isn’t legible. Both are pretty to look at, though.

    Arches! For our ceremony, we're getting married in front of a gazebo with curtains drawn but the pillars give it an arch/alter vibe, especially after some ribbon work added to them!

    Hard one... we are getting married in our church which has a beautiful backdrop already with minimal decoration needed! So I suppose custom artwork? Since the art at the church is unique to the church!

    I love being different and I’m attracted to the idea of art- however, nothing beats an arch with added flare!

    Arches add that gorgeous focal point to every ceremony.

    Neither. We getting married in a cathedral so there isn't much room for anything extra.

    Definitely an arch! I love to incorporate some of the natural surroundings into my ceremonial space.

    To be honest, I don’t like either. Our ceremony is at a church; there’s no arch and there’s not really artwork where we would be standing either. I’m plain Jane I think!

    Arches - I wish we could change the archway at our venue, for a more modern one. I'm currently obsessed with triangular arches likes this one
