Lighting is the base of any decoration, as it helps to uplift it. Not to mention, the lighting can make or break the wedding as it’s all about the wedding photos and good photos are impossible to take in a bad lighting setup. No one wants those highly saturated yellow images of the most important moments of your life, right! So invest in some good lighting that is a part of the décor and compliments it too.
The good news is that the variety of lighting is endless. So you can pick any kind or design that not only suits the venue but also your budget.
Chandeliers
Now, one thing that you must keep in mind before selecting the chandeliers is that they don’t have to be extra huge even if they are the centerpiece decoration of the ball room. Elegant and sleek ones are in so look for these light chandeliers that are easy to carry and operate. Take a bunch of small ones and you can hang them from tress like lanterns if it’s an outdoor wedding. This can become a great spot for a fairy like photo shoot and also a selfie spot for your guests.
Huge bulbs
As far as the banquet is concerned, huge bulbs are the go to choice as they take the whole ambience to another level. They can be hung a little low from the ceiling along with stings of flowers and leaves. They really go well if you are planning the wedding along a minimalist theme. These too look great hanging from a tree. Don’t forget to incorporate them if you already plan on having a swing for amazing photos.
Lanterns and candles
These will make amazing table centerpieces and are not that costly so rent as many as you can because they make the decorations even more exquisite. Thick candles can be used as centerpieces and the long and sleek taper candles will look perfect for the aisle. Just make sure they are away from the guests in order to prevent any hazard. This is where lanterns come in handy in order to make the venue safe. Plus they come in various sizes and shapes, best ones being those vintage huge lanterns that can be used both for a vintage as well as a rustic theme. Don’t forget to place flower bouquets near the lanterns to complete the look.
Fairy lights
Fairy lights are obviously a necessity but the trick is to use them wisely. They are simple but proper ideation and designing should be done before putting them. The best way to incorporate them is by draping them along the tent from the centre of the ceiling. Half the ambience will be done here! Also don’t forget the pillars or the trees for that matter. Never leave the trees naked but also don’t go overboard with the lights.
