Sneak Peek: Lanterns
Planning decorations for a tent is hard, and that’s all I’m going to say about that.
Choosing lantern colors is also hard, if you ask me. Part of the reason it’s hard for me, in this instance, is the lack of general color scheme for my wedding. I see colors and I like them and I decide I want them to be in my wedding palette. I also don’t like things that are so matchy matchy it looks like you’re trying too hard. See here. Blecgh. But no offence if color matching is your thing.
Another part of the reason is that I always see color palettes and think that the palettes themselves look so pretty that I want this to be our lantern color scheme:
This is what our rental company sent to me when I asked what our choice of lantern colors would be. The problem is that all of these together would look really stupid hanging in a tent. When I try to narrow it down a bit by trying to identify my favorite colors from among these, it’s the bolds that always pop out at me (obviously), which tricks my brain into thinking that I like them, and even if I do like them, they look ghastly in combination.
With Steve’s help, we settled on peach and ginger (delicious!) after seeing this photo in google and thinking that would probably work out for us. Here’s hoping for the best!
