We are huge fans of candlelight here at Fresh LiME Events. There’s just something so beautiful and natural about the flickering of a candle that we can’t pass up. Candles are a great way to add soft light to a room, a little romance. We also love using that candlelight outside. Hanging lanterns are a great way to bring candles to outside spaces. Using them around the perimeter of your wedding venue can really create a little drama, even if guests aren’t spending a lot of time outside. If you have a reception room that has windows, line the room outside with large lanterns that hand from wrought iron hooks. The glow from inside will look really amazing, and will also say to guests that you didn’t forget about the entire look and feel of the wedding – including outside.
Here are a couple of other ways to use these hanging lanterns;
- Line your wedding ceremony aisle, especially if you’re having a ceremony at dusk
- Hang them from large trees around the property of your wedding venue
- If you’re having a tented wedding, create a pathway to the restrooms for guests to easily follow
- Hang them from the inside of your tent instead of using the paper lanterns
- Line the driveway of the venue, so guests have a warm feeling as they drive off for the night
Just a little squeeze of LiME….
