Tented Weddings

To me, there is something magical and nostalgic about tented weddings.  Maybe it is the memory of building tents in childhood games, or the way the pole tents are vaguely reminiscent of castles.  Maybe it's the imagination wanting to believe that there should be handsome men in suits and glamorous women in sequins & satin walking around under the tent, looking like characters out of The Great Gatsby.

Tented weddings can be taken in any direction - white tents are like blank canvases you can enhance down to the very last detail.  You can make it simple and laid back, beachy or rustic chic, timeless and glamorous.  There are many, many different ways to transform a tent into a personalized venue, tailored to your exact liking.  You can create ambiance through the use of lighting (chandeliers, strings of white lights or Japanese lanterns all work well), hanging flowers, paper pom poms and table decor.  You can also arrange the tables, bar, food tables, dance floor, stage and guestbook/favor tables any way you want to create just the right atmosphere.

You really can't go wrong with a tented wedding, rain or shine.  You can add sides, doors, windows, flooring, lounge furniture, heating, A/C...the options are endless.

Here are a few of my favorites:
