"Heaven" Themed Christmas Parade Float

Our girls club at church is putting a float in our town's Christmas parade, and would like to do a Heaven theme. We're thinking lots of white, people dressed like angels, and then maybe a staircase with Jesus sitting at the top with a scepter and angels around him. Any other ideas or ways to pull this off?

Thank you for your ideas! We're decorating tonight and the parade is tomorrow - hopefully all goes well! We have lots of quilt bats, glitter and lights...

We did a heavenly float. I took old sheets and put quilt batting over them. I them pulled at the batting to make it rise and look fluffy. I took some spray adhesive and sprayed over it, then took some glitter and sprinkled on the clouds. Then I had children dressed in white as angels sit in the clouds and each held a single battery operated white candle. Lot of white lights on the float.

I love the pearly gates idea! So here's another question...any ideas as to how to construct something that would resemble that? :D

How about golden gates at the opposite end of the staircase. Maybe some gold colored cobblestone path leading to the staircase too?

Don't forget the golden gates. Maybe put them at the opposite end of the staircase. Maybe cobblestone path leading to staircase in gold color?

After they are dressed in white clothing (sheets as angels), you could make 2 sides white clouds out of poster board. They can wear them with their bodies sandwiched in between.
