Regardless of whether you will be renting a vehicle or using your own, decorating it is an item you can't skip, because not only will you put your stamp on your choice of vehicle, but also on the wedding decorations you put on it. Be inspired by the following proposals .

Tapes

If you are looking for a classic, discreet and elegant decoration, the best option is to use fabric ribbons, which are usually made of silk, organza or tulle, in white.

The idea is to intertwine two of these ribbons forming a V, at the front of the hood. Or, if it will be a vaporous fabric, you can extend it from one end falling to both sides of the bumper, generating an asymmetrical effect.

For the back, meanwhile, you can decorate with a rosette of the same fabric at the height of the trunk.

Flowers

Do you prefer a more romantic style? If so, the protagonist in the decoration of your car should be the flowers.

With or without ribbons, place floral arrangements or wreaths on the hood, on the door handles and on the trunk, even on the top, if you will be traveling in a van or other wedding cars with a grill.

But do choose flowers that are either of the same species or are of the same colour, so that the decoration looks uniform. Roses and peonies look especially romantic.

Cans

The decoration for bride and groom's cars with cans, which is already a tradition, consists of hanging them from the rear bumper, to crawl and sound while the vehicle is in motion.

This is a format that you can customize, for example, by choosing cans in their natural state, with DIY painted designs or that correspond to your favorite drinks or beers.

Pompoms

Another trendy idea is to assemble garlands of paper pom-poms and hang them from the bumper to drag, in conjunction with or as a replacement for the steel or aluminum cans from the previous point.

You can mix pom poms of different colors or focus on a specific palette, for example, shades of red, pink and purple.

Pom poms add a relaxed and romantic feel to wedding car decorations.

Banners

The pennants are ideal to form the word "newlyweds". The bride's name, your name or any other phrase you wish to integrate as an ornament for the bride's car.

The banners are usually made of jute or burlap, so they will add a more rustic or bohemian touch to the decoration of your wedding car. The banners are hung on the back of the bumper or on the rear window, taking care not to obstruct the driver's visibility.

Balloons

To decorate a wedding car with an air of innocence, another idea is that tie balloons from the door handles or the trunk area .

Depending on the style you prefer, you can choose between balloons in pastel colours, transparent balloons with confetti, balloons in metallic tones or heart-shaped balloons.

The detail of the balloons soaring high will contrast beautifully with any other decorations you choose for your vehicle.

Posters or stickers

In addition to placing a sign that says "newlyweds" or "long live the bride and groom". in the place of the patent, there are other spaces that can be used to add messages or illustrations.

For example, place a vinyl with your initials intertwined on the back glass, put a sticker with wedding rings on the front doors or capture the date or the hashtag of the wedding in one of the windows, among other ideas to decorate your car. The key is to choose stickers that do not damage the vehicle.

Cuddly toys

This idea, exclusive for brides and grooms who want to give a touch of tenderness to their transport, consists of placing a couple of teddy bears dressed as a bride and groom.

They can be placed inside, on the rear wiper blade or attached with ribbons at the height of the front license plate.

In fact, if you gave stuffed animals as a gift for an important anniversary, using them will give an even more emotional meaning to your ornamentation.

Although you can always enlist the help of professionals, you will also find many tutorials on TikTok or YouTube on how to make bridal car ornaments easily. It will be a good option if you want to save money and at the same time entertain as a couple.
