If the bright light of the sun isn’t to your taste, and you’d rather opt for an atmospheric evening wedding, you might be on the lookout for some attractive lighting options. Evening weddings are romantic and glamorous, and a large part of it is due to the type of illumination. Here are a few ideas:

1. Candles

For a soft lighting mood, you can’t go wrong with candles, and there are many ways in which to achieve the candle-lit look. Tall decorative candles in glass bottles or brass candlestick holders are elegant and traditional. Alternatively, you could mix up the sizes and have some shorter candles positioned next to taller, thicker candles for variety. Surround the candles with leaves, wood and foliage, or even float them on water, for a rustic bohemian effect.

2. Fairy lights

Whether you choose to use fairy light curtains or wrap strings of fairy lights around beams and canopies, these twinkling little illuminations will give your wedding a magical feel. A full backdrop of fairy lights will also look beautiful in photographs.

3. Pendant lighting

Traditional chandeliers and hanging bulbs encased in ornamental holders are the height of elegance, whereas colourful Chinese lanterns will give your wedding a fun and fresh vibe.
