THE JOURNAL

Under The Arch.

Saying “I do” is the big moment. It marks a new beginning, celebrating the past that has led you here, and the future as a married couple. Standing in front of an altar, your arch, or something completely different, and saying those two big words is where everything changes.

Making your wedding ceremony as much of a reflection of your relationship is what we aim to do. Maybe you’re in front of hundreds of your favourite people. Maybe you’re in front of no one at all. Maybe you’re at your favourite restaurant, at a church, or in your backyard. Whatever it is that you’re envisioning for your wedding ceremony, we want to help you bring your vision to life!

We’ve put together some of our favourite arch designs to get you inspired and dreaming about your “I do” moment.
