What you'll make
Soft white curtains hanging behind the two of you, the outer panels swept back with greenery, and every guest's photo of the vows suddenly looks like it was planned by a stylist. It frames the moment without stealing it, and you can move it from the ceremony to behind the sweetheart table later. About $88 for the whole backdrop.
