I have a pew bow question

How many pews do you put decorations on?

I wanted to do like 6 on each side but my mother and her friends say you only do like 2 on each side to let guests know where the family is sitting?!?!?!

Please help!

Re: I have a pew bow question

The church I'm getting married in goes back like 40 rows (the aisle is 115') so I'm putting bows on all of the rows before the break (10 on each side) otherwise they'd be lost. I think it makes the church look even more beautiful...I'm not really using it for seating purposes, more so for decoration.

Re: I have a pew bow question

Our church is quite small as well, and our florist actually is a member of the congregation! She recommended we do the first two rows, then every 3rd row to the back. We have 14 rows, so we'll need a total of 12 * 2 = 24 pew bows.

HTH.

Re: I have a pew bow question

We're not using them for seating purposes, more for decoration. We are planning to do every other row, about 10 on each side, or 20 total.

Re: I have a pew bow question

we're doing the first 8 rows, so 16 all together. the florist made a good point of how it will look when tictures are taken from down the aisle and he showed us pictures without and with. The bows definitely added a little something extra.

Re: I have a pew bow question

I am doing 10 on each side. The aisle is kind of long and I want to have it somewhat decorated.

Re: I have a pew bow question

I think I am going to do every third row all the way to the back of the church (which I THINK is 24 rows) so that would be 8 on each side. But I can see your mom's point about just doing where family sit. That would look nice too
