Available in metal, terracotta and a bunch of other materials, bells will enhance your wedding décor and lend to it an innate traditional vibe. Let’s look at a few ways you could use them to adorn your wedding venue.
As it turns out, these little trinkets are actually quite malleable, threaded with tassels or flowers, tied to the ends of garlands, bells make for ideal backdrop décor. Juxtaposed with stunning drapes, these can be used for wedding stage decoration as well as photo booths.

While there are no hard and fast rules of such wedding decoration, you must keep in mind the types of bells used depending on where and how it is being set up as their weight and size can significantly alter the look and also present practical difficulties. While smaller bells are the go-to option for anywhere, bigger ones enveloped in flowers or other vibrant adornments make a bolder statement and should be hung up near entrances and walkways or arranged for showcase.
