Rose Petal Calculator & Aisle Runner
Rose petals is one of the most beautiful and traditional ways to decorate your aisle on your Big Day. Buying your own rose petals can be a money saver – although you will have to take the time to buy them, store them, deliver them to the wedding site, and delegate the task to your day-of wedding coordinator (wink, wink). I found a great site that sells freeze-dried petals but the coolest part is that they offer a Rose Petal Calculator to determine how many you’ll need to buy for your desired look for your aisle. They also offer calculations for covering your reception tables, for your flower girls to toss and for your guests to toss when you make your way back up the aisle after your Big Kiss…
Another cool DIY idea is a rose petal aisle runner that you can re-sell to another bride with a similar theme. The biggest drawback is that you have to use fake or freeze-dried petals instead of fresh which can sometimes look cheap… Use your best judgement…

For something more elaborate and elegant like this beautiful aisle, talk to your florist – it’s WORTH IT to have a professional carry out this effect that will be SO memorable for you and your guests.
