How long of an aisle runner should I purchase?

When deciding on an aisle runner length do not just ask the pastor priest or Rabbi measure from the aisle runner start point usually at the base of the first step to the alter, although you may start at the top of the stairs this is a good question for the person performing the ceremony. Now from this point measure at least 6' feet beyond the point you intend to enter the aisle runner remembering it will not go around corners. then add 6 to 12 more feet this is material that will stay on the tube and weight it down so your dress does not pull the runner down the aisle especially if you have a long train it is also best to have a friend or family member there to fluff and straighten the back of your dress for perfect pictures.
