Modern Wedding Decorations
Weddings are happy events that maybe happen in the lives of all of us. They can be glamorous, fun, creative or plain traditional. For those of you that plan on having a modern, fashion conscious wedding, you should know that the decorations are ones of the characteristic items of the whole reception and ceremony. Choosing the right accessories and ornament will guarantee an overall success.
When choosing the modern path to a wedding, you can take two different roads with a great result at the end: the minimalistic one or the lavish one. If you want to pick the first one because it sounds cheaper, you should know that simple is always harder to make because everything has to be in place, while the lavish one needs lots of detailing to look royal and metropolitan.

The first inspiration you should think about is the city. Build a cake, do not bake it, customize napkins with important landmarks that influenced your development as a couple and add intriguing and architectural light pieces. These last items can be found at small prices at many DIY stores, made of paper, plastic or non-conventional materials.
Try to avoid the classic satin ribbon used for centerpieces and chair decorations and find ones that have bright color or bold patterns. You can even make them more complicated by adding handmade details with geometrical or graphic designs.

If you are not the biggest fan of usual wedding decorations, you can bring or rent a light projector and play interesting visual movies all night. You can even show the guests beautiful photos of you and your darling or transform a plain white room in a tropical destination with video recordings from an island. Using this technique you can take your guests even on a trip around the Universe without a space shuttle.
As the centerpieces, you can use LED lights and optic fiber to create intricate ensembles such as light fountains or cute funky signs. Even as they enter the venue, you can order a large LED sign with your names made out of colors. Neon is a cooler option at a larger price. If you really want to use flowers, you can do it by combining more unconventional ones with other items. Try blooming cactuses in combination with large figurines made out of small daisies. It sounds over the top but the effect will be more than precious. You can find tons of flowers arranged in miraculous ways on Tele Flora.11
Ribbon & Tulle For Wedding Decorations
Of all the stuff needed for a wedding, the decorations are ones of the most important items. They set the mood, the theme and the overall attitude towards the event. When decorating the venue for your wedding or for your client’s wedding, you should take in considerations some factors that will determine those above. Colors are vital, a traditional or royal inspired wedding will ask for ivory and beige with soft accents of rich colors, while a funky young couple will want an offbeat palette. The style is also imperative.

The most used materials for decorating a wedding location are tulle and ribbon. These two make very classic association and will look great in almost any situation.
The first place that is usually decorated with tulle and ribbon is the ceremony aisle. The ends of the seats rows or the flowers arrangements can be accessorized with bug bows made out of wide satin ribbon with puffy details and flowing bands made out of tulle. If you wish to use both, you can pick two colors. The ribbon has to be in a soft luxurious color, such as champagne, light chocolate or tinted whites, while the tulle can be dyed in bright powerful colors, for example: green, marine blue, dark purple or chocolate brown. For the flowers you can even make beautiful wraps out of these materials. Tulle can also be used to attach stuff to holders and stands without looking out of order.

Another great location for using ribbons and tulle is the reception area. Whether is inside or outside, these two fabrics can make everything like in a fairytale.
If the wedding is taking place in a garden, forest or on the beach, you can use ribbons to delimitate the event’s area by using a fine wire raised up between poles, from which you can hang many pieces of ribbon fluttered by wind. Tulle is a simple and cheap way to accessorize the chairs from the guests’ tables. Take wide long pieces and drape them all over the back and the lover part of the chair, this way you will create the impression of a very glamorous party.
If inside, the wedding demands a more ornamental approach. With long pieces of tulle you can create an arcade on the ceiling and you can make small color accents by using ribbon in one color or with a pattern. Even for the centerpieces you can include these fabrics. Small bows and elegant fabric flowers can be made. You can shop for lots of styles and types of tulle and ribbon on BB Crafts.11

The first thing you are maybe thinking of when organizing a wedding is the dress, the next one is probably the decorations, which play a vital role in the overall approach of the occasion. Decorations are usually mainly flowers and if you go for a Japanese theme you should pick traditional blooms, natural or artificial (but natural is always better). The first we proudly recommend is the cherry bloom, but not the light common one, but the dark shaded cherry tree with lavish large flowers or the light pink one with large bouquets and many petals. You can arrange them in fresh and soft centerpieces on the tables or in simple vases to embellish the aisle or the entrance to the venue. Another interesting flower is the Japanese Sunflower. This bright yellow bloom will bring that wow factor, simple and delightful you can even use it in the bridal bouquet or as an accent in the room’s decorations.
Next, a very easy to make and very cheap idea is to use origami. You can create, from plain colored paper, swans, flowers, intricate ensembles and even more. There are a lot of web sites that offer indications on how to create origami decorations. Origami Instructions is one of the most educative and understandable.

For the decoration of the walls and the ceiling, you can use fabric that was painted with traditional motifs, like waves, cherry blooms, geishas and writing. Remember to keep it as simple as possible, because the Japanese culture put great accent on good taste and beauty. Instead of expensive silk and artists you can get satin or other fabrics with already printed motifs. Another option is to buy folding screen to delimitate spaces within the venue.
The colors you should pick should stay within the limit of 3 and should be classic and concise. Stay away from crazy shades and neon colors. Red, blue, white and brown are great choices.11
Ideas For Fall Decorations Wedding Reception

If the wedding will take place in the fall, it would be a pity if you don’t use everything this season has to offer. The first thing you should try is to keep the event outside (only if the weather allows you to do this), somewhere in a park. The colors of the trees will be the best decorations you can possibly get. To be surer about the way nature will react to your reception, rent a tent (you can even get ones with heating). Decorating this tent is not very hard; you can hang strands of leaves and fabric in a beautiful arcade from the middle of the tent to the edges, creating a circus tent effect. In the center you can hang a large paper lamp or an ensemble of them, but remember to use warm light rather than the cold neon ones.

For the hallways and the entrance you can combine bronze or gold balloons with yellow roses and orange lilies and put together arcades that will dazzle any guest. You can even create large arrangement by making origami flowers and figurines and sticking them on long sticks; this option is very inexpensive and has a great effect. You can accessorize everything with large bows, which are always in trend, in colors related to red, orange and brown (you can even go for metallic shades which are very in).
Now, or the centerpieces, you don’t have to resume to only flowers, but use a lot of items which are very easily found in autumn. Combine fruits such as apples and pears with decorative pumpkins and twigs with large brownish leaves with tulle and glitter. For accents of brighter colors you can use peppers, wheat stems, exotic flowers, ribbons and figurines. The cards which you will lay on the table can be designed to contain fall motifs such as leaves, pumpkins and others.
The linens and the decorations for the chairs are also a focus point. Don’t go for shiny fabrics and let the decorations be the stars. Combine colors like orange with a more faded one such as a light kaki. The best way to highlight this season is to limit yourself to the redish warm colors and bright yellowish ones.
