One of the most important decorative elements used in the design of a wedding cortege are wedding rings on the car, which are mounted on the roof of the car or on its hood. They can be made of metal or wood, decorated with flowers or ribbons.
The choice depends on the individual preferences of the newlyweds and, of course, the style of the wedding celebration. It is the rings that become the main decoration and a kind of hallmark of the car in which the bride and groom are traveling. If for some reason it is not possible to purchase such an ornament, then young people can make such rings with their own hands and fix them on their own.
Various decorations of wedding cars make the holiday unique and attract the attention of others. Wedding rings are attached to the car in order to highlight the car of the young, and at every holiday this decoration looks special. The decoration of the wedding procession is carried out in the same style as the general decoration of the celebration, but the most popular material for decorating rings are fresh or artificial flowers and satin ribbons.
Depending on what the preferences of the young are, the following can be used as an element of decor:
If in the old days all these elements were used to attract happiness, good luck, wealth, and drive away evil spirits from the newlyweds, today decorating a wedding car has become a tradition.
Wedding rings with flowers are a traditional decoration of the car in which the bride and groom will ride.
Typically, such rings are made of metal, they are decorated on top with spray paint or wrapping paper intended for decorating bouquets, or foil.
For decoration, you will need one large flower, many smaller plants and some unopened buds. It is better to use artificial flowers, as live plants can quickly lose their original freshness.
To fix such a composition on the roof of the car, you will need to make a base, which can be used as another medium-sized ring or a metal plate. Flowers need to be tied to it - they will serve as an excellent decoration, with which you can hide from prying eyes the place of attachment and the base itself.
If satin ribbons are not used when creating a composition, then adhesive tape is required to secure not only the structure itself, but also the flowers.
In the old days, it was customary to mount decorative wedding rings on the arc of a troika carrying the newlyweds to the church.
A bell was hung from the upper edge of each ring to ward off evil spirits from the young. Later, instead of bells, various figures began to be placed inside the rings:
The figure of a swan has become an ornament that symbolizes fidelity and devotion, and such figures can be placed not only inside the rings, but also on both sides.
It is important to make sure that the birds seem to look into each other's eyes.
Decorating rings with satin or tulle ribbons requires attention and care.
They can be wrapped around the rings themselves and then used to tie the structure to the base.
Not only the outer winding is made of satin ribbons, but they are also folded, creating flowers.
With the help of ribbons, you can not only decorate, but also attach the rings to the roof of the car.
Rings on the roof or on the hood of a wedding car symbolize the eternal love of future spouses.
They seem to be intertwined and inseparable. The placement of various figures inside the rings is also symbolic, but this tradition was almost forgotten, and it was replaced by the desire to make the decoration original, unique, inimitable.
One of these ways is to place soft toys inside the rings. Most often these are two bear cubs. On the head of one of them a top hat flaunts, and the head of the other is decorated with a veil.
Such decorations do not have to be mounted on the roof, they can be placed on the hood of the car or on its front bumper.
To make rings yourself, you will need an ordinary corrugated pipe or a thin hose to decorate the newlyweds' car. This is a flexible base that easily takes any desired shape. A steel wire inserted inside the tube will help to keep it.
A wooden block inserted into the hose or an ordinary cork plug from a wine bottle will help to firmly connect the ends of the tube. It is thoroughly covered with glue (it is better to use supercement) and the ends of the hose are pulled onto the slippery part, achieving a tight connection. Having made the first ring, proceed to the manufacture of the second.
To do this, a piece of hose prepared in advance (its length is several centimeters less than the first part) is threaded into the finished ring.
Thus, the two circles intertwine and become inseparable. Now you need to repeat all the steps performed with the first product.
Before proceeding with the creation of the base for attaching the rings, the blanks are decorated with golden foil, wrapping paper or ribbon intended for decorating bouquets. The surface of the blanks is pre-lubricated with glue and proceed to the wrapping.
While the glue dries, you can start making the base on which the rings will be fixed. To do this, you can use a metal or wooden plate. So the base will be strong enough and reliable. If the process of creating rings can be simplified by using a Styrofoam template, then as far as the base is concerned, an oversight cannot be made here.
Otherwise, the entire structure may be destroyed by a gust of wind while the machine is moving.
There are several ways to attach DIY wedding car rings. The design can decorate:
Each has its own mounting method. If the rings can be simply tied to the bumper or radiator grille using satin ribbons tied into original knots, then fabric will be needed when installing them on the hood. It can be tulle, knitted under the bonnet and decorated with natural or artificial flowers.
You can fix the decorative rings on the roof of the car using special fasteners, which are used as suction cups.
They should be securely fixed to the base of the structure, and the surface to which the decoration will be attached should be thoroughly degreased.

Prepare long satin ribbons, the color of which will harmonize well with the resulting composition.
Carefully wrap them around the foam base. Then, pass the ends of the tapes under the hood cover on both sides and tie tightly at the bottom of the cover. You can use 2-3 tapes, which are fixed crosswise for reliability. So the design with the rings will not move to the side.
More rings can be mounted on the roof of the car. In this case, pass the long ends of the tapes through the windows and tie them together under the roof in the cabin.
