On my book, a touch of blink is something that should never be left out on a wedding. And, what a better way to incorporate the blink factor to your event than the forever-elegant Chandeliers? Although some venues like ballrooms, terraces, and even tents and gardens, may deliver plenty of charm on it’s own, a few glamorous accents never hurt. Specially when we are talking about Chandeliers. They could add a feel of elegance to your contemporary affair and will bring an extra luxurious effect to a classic soiree.

WEDDING CEREMONY AND CHANDELIERS
If the weather is right, there’s nothing like an outdoor ceremony. The scenery is incomparable. But adding one (or tow) chandeliers will bring a touch of romance and a tab of vintage sophistication to your "I do's". Don't believe me? Take a look at the following examples and see for yourself.

I Heart Long Tables

Rectangular tables are a romantic and elegant alternative to the traditional round tables and a glamorous bride’s best friend. On their own, long tables add a dramatic effect and a sense of royalty to any event design, but when mixed with round or square tables they create a fabulous visual effect. Whether your theme is vintage, modern or classic, long tables give you a unique type of set-up to work with in your wedding decor. With more brides favoring the sweep of long tables over a structure of rounds seating, it’s time to rethink the usual decorations. To inspire you here are some stunning settings of some very talented event designers I admire.
