Wedding Decorations Reception
A persons wedding is supposed to be the best and most special day in their life and they want to celebrate this day to the fullest. Weddings are supposed to be the celebration of a blessed union of two people who love each other and want to spend the rest of their lives with one another. Hence it is obvious that such a beautiful union be celebrated in the grandest way possible. A grand wedding followed by an elegant reception is the most ideal way to celebrate your wedding. The reception is a gathering of all your friends and family under one roof to celebrate the occasion of your wedding. At the reception the best man will start the dinner off with a toast to the bride and groom followed by all the other traditional games such as taking the brides garter off and catching the brides bouquet.
To make a wedding reception truly magical you will have to either hire a professional party planner or be extremely well organized and plan out the reception yourself. Since professional party planners are expensive and might not understand what exactly you want at your party it would be best to plan out and organize the reception yourself. Decorating a wedding reception is quite easy once you have tackled the bigger problems such as the location of the venue, seating arrangements and the dance floor.
It is not uncommon for wedding receptions to follow a set theme. So to start off you have to figure out what theme would suit you and your partner best. A theme can be anything elegant but it's usually focused on colors at wedding receptions. Let's say for example that you have chosen a theme with the color white. This does not necessarily mean that everything at the party has to be white you can mix and match decorations so that there is a contrast of colors.
To start off let's talk about some of the wedding lights you can use at the reception. Round paper lanterns are a great way to decorate the venue there are several colors to choose from. These lanterns look extremely elegant when you hang them in the corner walls of the venue. You can simply use white LED lights to light up these paper lanterns and they will give of a dull light at the venue.
Besides these paper lanterns you can also use a special sort of fairy lights called white frangipani style fairy lights. These white frangipani string lights are 6cm in diameter and have a total of 35 flowers on a 4.5 meter string. They are so classy that they have even been featured in Ok magazine as a chic buy. You can use these fairy lights around the venue around tables and even on the corners of the walls. These flowers will look amazing on your wedding day and even the guests will notice how elegant they are.
As you already know its tradition for the bride and groom to have the first dance at the wedding reception so to make this even more special you can lay out 100g pink silk rose petals on the dance floor. This will look incredibly beautiful against a black or pure white dance floor. The bride and groom will feel like they entered a magical place while dancing with so many gorgeous pink petals at their feet. The DJ should play the bride and grooms favorite romantic song during their first dance to make the moment even more romantic for them.
If you want your wedding reception to be completely unique and beautiful at the same time then you can use table sphere lights as your table's centerpieces. These lights look amazing and have 6 fibre sticks which are connected to the mini sphere lights. These lights are inspired by traditional Chinese lanterns which are held by bendable fiber sticks. These lights have built in batteries that can last for up to 48 hours without being charged.
Since every wedding has a pre-planned seating arrangement it would only be reasonable to have elegant looking place cards on each table so that all the guests know exactly where they are supposed to be seated. The seating arraignment should be designed in such a way so that all the guests at the party are comfortable and have a great time. People who have problems with each other can be placed on different tables this way making you avoid any problems in the reception party.
All the supplies you order must be done so at least 3 weeks in advance so that you have no issues in setting up the party. A great party needs to be planned to perfection and to do so you need to be organized and keep track of all the supplies you will need to order on the spot and in advance.
