Wedding Party Guide

Weddings signify a celebration of an everlasting bond and an exciting new life for a couple.  This once-in-a-lifetime experience must be grand and unforgettable.  Therefore, themes for weddings include combination of colors rather than taking one color as its main element of design.  A great way to accentuate and coordinated vibrant colors, besides using flowers and pieces of cloth, is through wedding balloons.

Wedding balloons provide a festive, fun and care-free mood to an event.  It’s a unique way of putting a decoration together and the balloons are widely available in many styles and colors.  Here are a variety of choices in balloon arrangement that you can suggest to your decorator:

Wedding Balloons Arrangement

• Arches – Arranging balloons in arches is a great idea.  It may also serve in a dual role: after the wedding ceremony at the church, decorators can place the wedding balloon arch at the reception entrance venue.  Go for metallic balloons, as they provide more class and elegance.

• Columns – Place the columned balloons at the side walls of the reception area.  Combine the different wedding balloons according to the theme colors in order to add creativity.  Try to place heart-shaped swirled balloons at the top of the combined round columned balloons.

• Centerpieces – Use balloons as center pieces of the table in your reception area.  The centerpiece can have the balloons surround the dominant theme color of the flower.

• Used for Games at the Reception – Games are enjoyed as part of the wedding party to build interaction between the couple and the guests.  A game that symbolizes that a couple welcomes the possibility of having children in their lives is symbolized when they gather children to share giveaways.  So, instead of a wedding bell with candies inside, you can have a new game using balloons.

• If it’s a care-free and relax wedding that you want to provide to your guests, wedding balloons are a great match to semi-formal dresses and outfits of your guests.

• Request your decorator to put small wedding balloons inside a large transparent balloon.  Each small balloon contains a small piece of paper listing a gift for a child.  The couple has the children gather around them and as they burst the large balloon, the children grab a small balloon and burst it to see the prize.

A wedding in a tropical paradise is what many young couples dream of and what better place for a fantastic tropical wedding than Tahiti – a piece of France in the South Pacific. Tahiti conjures up images of tall palm trees bordering white sandy beaches and turquoise lagoons. Indeed, an ideal location for a romantic wedding with a tropical wedding centerpiece on each table. In the weeks before the big day, the couple gets together with the reception venue staff and discusses what sort of table decorations would be quintessential of a tropical wedding. The best wedding centerpieces are what everyone wants and as the banter continues, ideas begin to form.

Most table enhancements are created around a theme and usually have something to do with the setting or type of wedding. Obviously if the wedding reception is being held at the Waldorf Hotel, for instance, then more than likely a tropical theme would not be employed. There are exceptions to this; just check out ‘Working Girl’. The best wedding centerpieces are usually something unique that will have guests mumbling about for hours. For a wedding in Tahiti, one has so much to choose from to create some wonderful centerpieces for each table. As this island nation is in French Polynesia, it stands to reason a French / Polynesian theme would be perfect. Designers usually incorporate palm trees or the water in their wedding centerpieces. The bride’s and groom’s hobbies are also taken into consideration. Wedding reception center designers have a slew of ideas that blend both cultures into one, leaving lasting memories for all in attendance.

For some reason weddings in tropical locations seem more romantic than those in other places. Perhaps it is the warm weather combined with color that gives us this feeling. It is true that when guests attend a wedding in the tropics, most feel a sense of freedom. This freedom is an escape from the norms of daily life; it is an escape from the mundaneness and a chance to enjoy the festivities of the day. Having a tropical wedding centerpiece on each table enhances these feelings. At any wedding party, the centerpieces are not just positioned on the tables for something to stare at during the long winded speeches, they create the reception’s atmosphere and in some strange way, keep the event lively. This is why having the best wedding centerpieces is very important.
