It made more use of the vines so that I would not run out and it helped the vines stay more consistent with thickness throughout the entire arch.

In the end I think it turned out better than expected. It is verylarge at around 9 ft tall at the middle point. At least 6 in aregoing into the ground make sure it is stable. That is why youcan see the sections at the bottom where there are not vines.The width at the top where the cascades are is around 7 ft.You can obviously make your arch the size you want it. We aregoing to have crystals hanging from it so we wanted it taller.

I highly recommend if you are planning to make one of thesefor your wedding you start way ahead of time if you only haveweekends to work on it, you will save yourself a lot of stressbefore the wedding!
