DIY Ideas for Decorating a Tent Wedding
You've planned a beautiful outdoor wedding, including ordering a tent to shield your guests from sun or rain. But who wants a boring white tent for her wedding? Decorating inside the tent is a great and easy way to add some style and personality - after all, this is your wedding venue. A white background is a great canvas for adding a splash of color or keeping things chic and monochromatic. This blank slate works for almost any style of wedding too, from country to urban to crafty or nautical and beyond. The sky is the limit when choosing decorations.
Pom-Poms
Martha Stewart has revived fluffy pom-poms as festive wedding decorations. Made from tissue paper, pom-poms can be hung from support poles inside the tent without needing reinforcement to handle any extra weight. As an added bonus, they are fairly easy and cheap to make.
White Lights
Not just for Christmas, white lights can add a twinkle to your special day. Stringing them along the inside of the tent creates an almost magical glow in the evening. Secure them to the edges of the tent with clips that can also be used for outdoor holiday decorating. Chances are that you or someone you know will have these in the attic, saving you money on décor.
Paper Lanterns
Available in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and colors, paper lanterns make a white tent look fun, without turning it into a circus. Lit or unlit, they make your wedding look like a party.
Fabric
Draping chiffon or tulle fabric from the ceiling or wrapping it around poles can give a fairy-tale feel to your day. Choose light colors to keep the fabric from feeling smothering and restrictive. You want to keep the airy feeling a tent gives.
Balloons
Who doesn't love balloons? If you think they look cheesy, look for ones with a 36-inch diameter; they are more round when blown up. Filling them with helium and letting them drift to the ceiling creates a fun view when guests look up. Secure them so that they cannot escape the tent and float off into the sky.
