OK, I've finally had it. Runners are OUT! I haven't seen one really successful runner happen in any wedding in the past dozen or more. Why?
Let's start with the obvious: in the outdoors weddings there is usually uneven ground and runners can slip much more easily than stay in place. And a runner that slips is a hazard to the bride. And NO ONE has the right to put the bride in such a condition on her one and only wedding day!!
They even slip in chapels. The one successful runner happened this summer when it was rolled out BEFORE even the guests were seated and then the whiteness was marred because they all got their footprints on it! But, because it was rolled out and anchored into place before the ceremony when there was time to get it correctly placed, it worked!! The royal pastiche of daintiness to have the "queenly dainty foot" step on nothing but pure white linen is a habit we should dispose of. It doesn't work.
