  • Restaurant decoration

Be aware that the place where the wedding will take place, whether it is outdoors, in the garden of a restaurant or indoors, dictates the style of the wedding. You must be aware that some locations may have restrictions, so you must adjust your ideas accordingly. But there are some decorations that can easily fit and adapt to any space:

  1. Flower decoration. The main trend of recent years is hanging flower decorations. Whether hung above the registrar's area, over the tables or the dance floor, hanging flowers add another layer of beauty to the overall wedding decor. When designing table decorations, flowers are almost always included for their beauty and effectiveness. Arrangements can be as simple as a few long stems in a vase to professionally arranged works of art. Flowers can be used together with candles, in terrariums, intertwined around lanterns or woven into garlands around the wedding table. Flowers are very practical and can have many uses, you can use them to decorate a car and a gate, but also make tassels for guests.
  2. Candles. Candlelight has a warm glow and gives a romantic effect that is perfect for weddings. And there are many ways to use candles in decorating a wedding. For example. to decorate the table, small candle holders in glasses, floating candles, large pillar candles, lanterns and can even be mixed and matched with flowers to achieve the right effect. When decorating with candles, choose unscented ones, because some people are sensitive to the smell. And if there are children among the guests, a better choice would be candle holders that are glazed.
  3. Balloons. This type of decoration is always associated with a good party. Balloon decoration has no limits for your creativity, from covering the wall with balloons, to numbering the tables, and even hanging them on the ceiling. You can also use them to decorate the wedding car, use balloons with the initials of your names, make a balloon arch.

Take care of the budget
