A wedding tent supplements your beautiful outdoor ceremony by creating the perfect place to host the reception. It also comes in handy in case bad weather arrives and everyone has to move under cover. In today’s blog, The Alleen Company highlights some fantastic ideas for how to decorate a wedding tent as an elegant detail of your big day.
Lighting
String lights are perfect for a wedding tent at night. They are similar to Christmas lights, only for a practical purpose as a stylish addition to your wedding tent. Edison-style lights showcase unique shapes and filaments that look like an old bulb. Large lights cast a soft glow, while strings of small LEDs brighten the ceiling of a tent. Consider lights that hug the top of the tent if you rent one with a lower top, or set up strings of lights from one side to the other.

Hanging Lanterns
Hanging lanterns represent a classic touch that is a beautiful addition to strings of lights in a wedding tent. Lanterns cast an even glow over tables, so guests can see to eat their food. Metal lanterns offer a modern take on the traditional look, while wooden lanterns provide a vintage appeal. If you already have enough light, colored paper lanterns provide a cheerful atmosphere that counters the white ceiling of the tent.
Streamers and Banners
Streamers and banners achieve the same effect as colored paper lanterns. Much like strings of lights, feel free to put these near the top of the tent or a bit lower from one side to the other. Coordinate colors to match other elements, or go all out with a rainbow of hues for a cheerful addition to the wedding tent.
Flower Arrangements
Rather than hanging lanterns, add natural splashes of color with beautiful flower arrangements. This is a gorgeous way to create an amazing and vibrant style that feels as naturally beautiful as the bride. The dance floor is the perfect central location for flowers and plant decor in the wedding tent. One benefit of real flowers is that you can give these arrangements away to some of your guests.
