ceiling and tent ideas

swatch portraits

I was also thinking that it might be cool to have photos or fabric circles suspended from the ceiling - economic and attractive (and not paper lanterns!!)

I was thinking that it might be cool to include blue "theme" lighting with the typical rope christmas type lighting. Just a few accents up towards the tent ceiling or something....I also think it would go well with twigs twined up and down the poles with the lighting underneath (to act as though the posts are tree trunks

A wedding tree.....

I have no idea where we're going to have the wedding or the reception, but I do know that J and I are 100% having a mid-September '09 wedding OUTDOORS. The problem is then what's the 'frame'? Do we flank ourselves between trees, use floral pieces, a chuppa? Although I was raised Catholic, I'm not really all that traditional nor do I practice that religion. In fact, to tie-in more to our wedding location, just a point of reference when traveling in Bolivia I found out the name of my made-up religion (I had previously called it 'The Great Outdoors') - Pachamama (Mother Earth! - note that i do not believe in animal or human sacrifice). Anyway, so when I came across this photo via _______) I know this is EXACTLY what I want (with the addition of a water body in the background) I love the decorated tree to make it seem like its a fantasy!
