Lanterns to decorate your wedding

Imagine a romantic garden.  Tables scattered across the grass.  Beautiful people roaming around enjoying each other’s company and talking and laughing. The food is good.  The drinks are refreshing.  The sun is still shining but all the guests know soon it will be sunset.  The wedding party has just begun.  A dance floor is set up in the middle of all the tables.  The DJ is playing the perfect music.  The sun is setting and the garden is growing dark but the party is no where near its end.

With all the natural beauty in garden, the grass, trees, flowers, etc what would you use as decoration?

Why not lanterns?

They give good visuals during the day and then at night you can light them with candles or some other type of light source.

Lanterns can be hung on strings or in trees.  Or on the edge of the isle to decorate the wedding ceremony.

Perhaps you don’t want to hang a lantern, but they can be placed on tables as table centers.

Not only are lanterns versatile decoration there are many types of lanterns.  You can choose from extremely rustic lanterns made out of things like burlap and mesh to highly luxurious lanterns made out of glass and silver.  Many cultures (Chinese, Indian, Moroccan) have tradition style lanterns as well.

 

What kind of lanterns have you seen?  Have you ever made a lantern?
