With so many options to choose from, it’s easy to see why you might feel overwhelmed when making the decision to purchase a custom aisle runner from Kiss And Wed. It’s time we made it simple for you!
When choosing to have an aisle runner custom-made, it’s important to realize that very few companies out there actually produce quality custom-made aisle runners. I can probably count on one hand the companies that I know who make an aisle runner worth anything. It’s all too easy to get suckered into the “it’s cheaper” thought process. But, the old adage is true, you get what you pay for. At Kiss And Wed, we hand-paint every one of our products and we use only the finest materials. Nothing is machine processed. With that, it’s expected that you’re going to have to pay a little more for a true quality product.
So, you’ve decided Kiss And Wed is the company for you, but you still don’t know how to proceed with your custom aisle runner purchase. The first thing you need to ask yourself, even before how much are you willing to spend, is what type of quality is needed. If you’re walking down a concrete or carpeted aisle, then you really could choose any of our products. But, if you’re walking down a marble floor, non-slip aisle runners are your best bet. Here’s the low down on each of our aisle runner types -
Budget Aisle Runners
Our budget aisle runners are made from a spun-bonded material, meaning they are not traditionally sewn fabric like you are probably used to. While these runners are not similar to a dryer sheet (like a lot of the aisle runners on the net), they are not the same quality as our fabric or non-slip aisle runners. Budget aisle runners are fused together so you will literally see tiny holes (and I mean tiny) throughout the length of the runner, where the “threads” are fused together. This aisle runner is ideal for many aisles because it is both wrinkle-free and puncture-resistant. This means that under normal circumstances, heels likely will not poke through the material. The only drawback to this material is that it is only offered in white.
We recommend Budget Aisle Runners for use on surfaces such as carpet when pinned down, concrete, wood, grass, dirt, stones, sand, etc.
Fabric Aisle Runners
Fabric aisle runners are literally made from polyester fabric material and come in an array of colors (65 to be exact). These quality aisle runners have surged edges (so no fraying) and are one long piece of material (no seams). Fabric aisle runners are made from material that is similar to what you would find used for restaurant linens. They are quality material and will not puncture under normal wear and tear. For obvious reasons, fabric aisle runners are our number one seller.
We recommend Fabric Aisle Runners on any surface except slick floors (example: marble).
Non-Slip Aisle Runners
Non-slip aisle runners are our most luxurious option. These aisle runners are made from a poly/cotton blend but also include a foam backing adhered to the aisle runner to prevent movement. This means you can walk and even dance (yes, I’ve done it) on the runner and it will not move. Of course you will spend the most money on a non-slip aisle runner, but you’re also receiving the best aisle runner for your money, one that only a handful of companies even make!
We recommend Non-Slip Aisle Runners for every type of aisle.
No matter which aisle runner material you choose, you can expect your aisle runner to be pressed and rolled onto a tube for easy use. They also include either a rope (budget aisle runners) or satin ribbon (fabric and non-slip) pull cord.
Now that it’s all laid out for you, I’m sure you’re thinking…well, this is an easy decision!
