Outside Wedding

My daughter is having a outside wedding, reception and dance at our farm. It will be a big wedding. We are thinking of getting a tent. What do you recommend on putting around the chairs to keep the people enclosed? Right now we are thinking of white chairs. I would like alot of light! the wedding will be in the front yard between 2 large trees with corn in the background. Any ideas would be appreciated.

How about running raffia garland along the aisles of chairs, with sunflowers tied inbetween. For soemthing different and fun, why not use hay bales as "benches" for the guests during the ceremony. You can cover them with white linen or even gingam check fabric, whatever coordinates with the colors and style. I love the idea of a countryside outdoor wedding! Carry that theme all through the wedding and reception - it`ll be beautiful and memorable for everyone!

If you need any more ideas or assistance pullng it altogether, contact me at mansurfamily@hotmail.com.

Good luck and have fun planning!
