The Art of the Wedding Lantern

There are many reasons why brides and grooms choose to have the beautiful sky lantern as a feature at their wedding. Most people consider them to be an interesting and special alternative to a firework display. They provide a wonderful finale to any event, not because they are dazzling (which they are) nor because they create a stunning spectacle, nor because they allow guests to participate in their launch. The reason why wish lanterns are so unique to any other light display, is because they create a feeling of calm and peace from the moment they are lit to the point at which you just begin to lose sight of them as they disappear into the sky. They really are works of art.

The wonderful thing about the wedding lantern, which is a sky lantern that has been designed specifically to create a point of interest at a wedding, is that you can make them entirely your own. Following along the lines of an art installation, wedding lantern packs come with beautiful purple highlighters (not the unsightly flourescent varieties), which enable the happy couple and their guests to add their own personal touches to the lanterns. You may decide to write a poem dedicated to the special day, or to the lovers. You may prefer to represent your happiness in the form of a drawing or sketch. This might be a scene which depicts the wedding itself, or a simple pattern that looks beautiful.

The resulting lanterns will look like little pieces of art floating up into the sky, and the best thing about them is that they create a display that is like no other. You can rest assured that no other wedding will have lanterns like the ones you yourselves created.
