The size of an umbrella is identified by the term "Arc." When an umbrella is open, if you measure the top from one side over the top to the other side this is the Arc.
Umbellas with a 48" Arc will cover a person and a half or two people close together. Umbrellas with an Arc size smaller than 48" are for a single person. Golf umbrellas have an Arc size of 60" or larger and will cover two and a half people or the bride, her gown, and the groom.
Umbrellas have eight panels and are available in both solid and alternating panel colors. The number of panels and colors to be imprinted are dependent upon your message and the look you wish to achieve. The imprint area size will vary based upon the type and style of umbrella.
On umbrellas with an Arc size of 48" or smaller, normally only one panel is imprinted.
Because of their large size, most golf umbrellas are imprinted on two opposite side panels.
In addition some manufacturers provide the capability of imprinting on the sleeve and also the tie wrap of the umbrella.
