A beautiful church, chapel or cathedral deserves décor to match, and adorning a gorgeous, welcoming doorway with beautiful blooms or foliage is sure to do the trick. Wedding church doorway décor serves as a way to welcome guests, and as a gorgeous pre- and post-wedding ceremony photo backdrop, too.

Whether it's arches full of lush foliage, or pedestals filled to the brim with fresh blooms, there's so much room to get creative with unique floral installations that play to your ceremony venue and your style.

We’ve focused on church doors for this feature, but these beautiful ideas, all taken from our very own gorgeous Real Weddings featured on the site, can easily inspire floral arrangements for secular venue doorways too. Either way, these beautiful floral church doorway ideas are sure to make your heart skip a beat!
