Floral Arch
Arches are one of our most popular ceremony pieces. They create a stunning backdrop for the couple.
In this blog I’ve highlighted a handful of arches in order to give you inspiration for your ceremony flowers.

This couple chose to build their own arch structure in order to support a full and circular-shaped floral piece. We were hired to set this one up on-site at Raven Glacier Lodge.

Arches frame the ceremony space for the couple, officiator and attendants.
Our arches can be set up on site, or taken directly from our home studio and set up up on your own. We supply a brief how-to tutorial and attachments to make this a simple process.
Arches stay fresh 24 hours after pick up from our studio. We recommend spritzing them with water, keeping them in the coolest location, and keeping them lightly covered with plastic.

This couple got married on the gorgeous grounds of The Lodge at Lone Moose, a gorgeous setting on the banks of the Kenai River.
The best floral varieties for arches include roses, dahlias, mums, carnations, peonies and greenery.
When you hire us to set up for you, we can add in flowers that are a bit more ethereal and delicate like cosmos, ranunculus, anemones and more.

This beach wedding occurred at Salted Roots, a dreamy venue in Seward, Alaska. There are a collection of modern cabins and across the drive is this beach-setting for a cozy and intimate ceremony.

Our summers often have cloudy, moody days like you see in the background, which I think creates the perfect canvas for big, lush florals.
This arch and color scheme perfectly match the mood of the day. Couples often choose to complement the mood of the surroundings or make their floral pop.

The above arch was created on site at Alaska Heavenly Lodge in Cooper Landing, AK.
I always think having as much color as possible it best for our Alaskan background: deep green forests, grey cloudy skies and moody ocean tones.
