Step 4 (DIY wedding triangle arbor assembly)
Next, put together side A+B+C of the DIY wedding triangle arbor.
To secure the pieces together, join the full triangle together and drill two holes per edge. These holes need to be the diameter of the bolt that you have chosen to use (use an appropriate size drill bit).
A recommended bolt size is at least 3 inches long. The diameter can be any size (same size as the drill bit). Make sure to use a split lock, a washer, a nut, and the bolt. You will need a total of 6 sets of bolt assemblies.
Add the bolts and secure the triangle tightly together.

Next, assemble the legs and base of the DIY triangle arbor.
Take four 20 inch 4×4 lumber pieces that are cut at a 60-degree angle on one end, two 30-1/8 inch 1×4 lumber pieces cut at a 60-degree angle on both ends, and two 27-1/2 inch 1×4 lumber pieces cut at a 60-degree angle on both ends.
Arrange them as shown below. Ensure that the 4x4s are secured tightly to the triangle base.
Use plenty of glue, predrill holes, and add 3.5 inch screws to secure the base to the triangle.
Lastly, the triangle is ready to be painted, stained, or left natural.
