Lights, Camera, Wedding!

Gorgeous lighting helps to establish the perfect atmosphere for your wedding events.  Here are four unique ideas for illuminating your wedding.

MAKE THE PARTY GLOW UNDER A CANOPY OF TWINKLING STRING LIGHTING

Whether you have a rustic chic theme or a sophisticated ballroom as the backdrop, draping the ceiling in market lights will create a delicate and chic ambiance. Friends and family members will feel as if they are dancing beneath the stars.

USE EDISON LIGHT BULBS TO ADD AN UNEXPECTED TWIST ON A CLASSIC DESIGN

This trend popped up in the last few years and remains a favorite among couples. The old-fashioned bulbs can be strung from the ceiling for a modern, urban feel or woven within lush, natural tablescapes for an ethereal look. Want a more subdued, minimalist design? Simply place bulbs on small tables throughout your cocktail hour to create a soft glow. Due to their sleek design, these bulbs can complement almost any decor.

ADD SOME ELEGANT CHANDELIERS THROUGHOUT THE SPACE TO SET THE MOOD

Nothing says romance like dancing under an ornate chandelier. Imagine having a garden reception at the Ritz Carlton. Decorating the outdoor space with a classic crystal chandelier (or two!) above the dance floor will create an elegant touch without appearing over-the-top.

SEND EVERYONE HOME WITH A SPARKLING MEMORY VIA TASTEFUL FIREWORKS

Since it’s your celebration, you control all the details - including color and whether a celebratory message lights up the sky (also ensuring that the display is chic and modern and does not resemble a Fourth of July Celebration). Your planner can help with the specifics such as getting the right permits and technicians on hand. Handheld sparklers for guests to send off the couple are another option that will create stunning images as the newlyweds make an elegant exit!
