I am wanting to add an Arch, Chuppah/Gazebo to my inventory for weddings. Anyone have any suggestions. I want something that is not too hard to transport but is easy and versatile to decorate. I really like tuberoses arch. Anyone have experience in this area???
 
Koch sells brash arches and chuppas (including the cover). We have brought both from them aver the years. They also carry candlebras in several styles.

You might also consider a more semi-permanent garden arch from B & C mortensen Wood Products. (shipping can be a little pricey, because they are heavier.)


We also purchased a very nice gazebo (black rod iron) from Target a year ago. It really is a picnic canopy -- we just needed the heaver frame structure. We have used it several times, with our own siik cloth cover and decorations as a chuppah, and it turns out very, very lovely. (Also easier and quicker to teardown in some of our ceremony into reception weddings.).

Hope this helps you.

I also have a black rod iron gazebo. I believe that I got it from a company called regal candleabra but I can't find their info here at home. I love how lightweight and easy it is to transport and put together. There is no limit as to how many different ways it can be decorated. I did however have wooden boxed constructed to place under the legs to make taller. It is very useful and I use it at most every bridal show we do. This is a pic from a few years ago.

CMH Florist: Is it possible to use this one without the top? Is it also possible to use just one side for an arch? I love the look.
 
Yes, the top pieces are seperate and can be used without. I have also used 2 of the corner pieces with 1 of the sides to make just an arch.
 
Corner pieces have small bolt pices that the side arched pieces side onto and then a nice rounded nut goes over. The top pieces slide into a square hole in the top of the corner pieces. The very center round piece also connects this way. Very easy assembly, tools normally not needed, except when someone over tightens the nuts.
 
We bought an inexpensive arch from a traditional garden supply company online - I think we paid $179 + shipping. Lightweight, cedar (popular in our area for beach weddings). Though it's not the sturdiest, it assembls quickly & stands on flat surfaces very well - we've had it for a year and have rented it 4 times. Many are available in white wood as well.

Chuppah we made from PVC, fully covered with loose fabric - it's time to think about something new, though requests are few & far between. We made it in 2006 & have used it 3 times. It's difficult to set up indoors, but it works great in the sand.
 
We mostly use a heavy steel arch and the top rests on the side columns for our weddings, the ones we used for the Open House are shorter and much lighter weight, each end has 2 bolts. I did find a similar product to our heavy one online, I think it's retail.
