Aisle Decor

Nothing is more breath-taking than a bridal entrance. All eyes are on you as you walk down that aisle to say “I do”. Adding candlelit lanterns or flower filled lanterns and a bed of flower petals lining the aisle will just give a magical and dreamlike touch to the biggest moment of your life.

Lantern Bouquets

For brides-to-be who’re looking for something out-of-the-box to add the extra oomph to their wedding – How about giving your friends who are escorting you to the phera mandap, a lantern bouquet to hold. Way too quirky, right? Picture this: Your bridesmaids walk down the aisle holding the lantern bouquets, each place around the mandap as they escort to the ceremonial site. What a perfect bridal entry, don’t you think? A complete fairy-tale dream sequence, in the making. Further on to your reception, these could also be used as centrepieces. Quite a money saver these lantern bouquets can be.  Big Bang for small bucks!

Unconventional Diya

Talking of the many ways in which these lanterns could be use, they also look great as a replacement for traditional diyas. A candlelit lantern beautifully decorated, on thalli could amazingly intensify the décor.

Lantern Cake

A royal wedding demands a royal cake! Why not include lanterns here too? These could make up for majestic 2 and 3 tier wedding cakes. You can match them or have colours contrasting to your décor. Either way, it will be a sweet grand treat.

Relaxed Romantic Corner

Amidst numerous candlelit mason jars, all you need is just one antique lantern and flowers to create a cosy romance corner. Post all the upheaval at your wedding, simply retire here for some alone time. You could set up a selfie station in this setting or keep it exclusive just for two, to click some really mushy candid photos with your spouse-to-be.
