How to Decorate a Wedding Tent

It's still summer in DC, and that means beautiful outdoor weddings are in season.  Because tents are often used for an outdoor wedding, we frequently get asked how to decorate them.  Do we use flowers?  lighting? tables?

So, we thought it would be appropriate to share 5 tips on how to decorate a wedding tent for a DC wedding:

  1. Lining: Traditionally, decorated wedding tents are lined - the walls are draped with a silky fabric for a sensuous and luxurious look. Linings can be plain or striped, smooth or ruched, and white or colored. Vendors will vary in the linings they have available. White or off white are most common. Flat linings are currently fashionable.
  2. Poles: Tent poles should be included in the decorative planning. Wrapped with garlands, fabrics, lights, or flowers, they can be transformed into eye-catching and stunning aesthetic additions. Consider wrapping tent poles with tulle, as it is both beautiful and inexpensive. Decorations can then be attached to the fabric with a hot-glue gun.
  3. Let the Outside In: One of the key differences between wedding tent receptions and indoor parties is that you can use the surrounding landscape in your decor.
  4. Lighting: Lighting is a very important aspect of tent-wedding decoration. String lighting offers many choices in terms of color, brightness, and display. Choose multi-colored or blinking lights for a playful effect, or all-white lights for a more elegant appearance. Special bug lights placed around the perimeter of the tent will provide a nice glimmer while keeping you pest-free.
  5. Flowers: Add flowers to your tent-wedding decorations and you will have everything you need for a warm and beautiful affair. Choose ornate silk bouquets or terra-cotta pots filled with your favorite blossoms.

  1. With a twist of contemporary style, the clear tent or transparent party tent is a great option for something different. As the name clearly indicates, this tent is supported by a frame and sports a clear, nearly-transparent vinyl surface above, making sure you get a clear view of the sunset and the stars

    This tent is ideal for weddings that are held in the evening or during the nighttime. Also, the clear surface offers you the feeling of being in a larger space.
