A Wedding Arbor




It’s fun to live in a neighborhood for a long time, you get to watch all the children grow up around you and start their lives. So when I found out one of the girls I watched grow up was getting married and needed an arbor for her wedding I was excited to help.


 She had some flowers in her colors and some greens but not enough to fully cover the arbor. So her mother and I went through our yards gathering what we thought would last.


 We gathered evergreens and boxwood. Then I thought apple branches would be great woven through it. I started a few days before the wedding building the greens, but when it came to the day of the wedding they looked a little wilted.


 Undaunted we gathered more greens and layered them. I then added the flowers, apples and butterflies.

This is how it came out.

 The bride loved it, thank goodness.

  1. Very beautiful, and it looks like a wonderful garden for a wedding. Mine was in front of my parent's fireplace in the living room with the Christmas tree in the background. - Margy
