When choosing the seating for your outdoor wedding you should go with a heavier metal folding chair as these are less likely to be knocked over before someone gets to their seat, but be sure that the seats are still comfortable for your guests to sit in. Then use different patterns or colours to decorate the chair frames. You can also choose to decorate the trees and the bushes using coloured strings woven around the branches of the plants that border the aisles. As for lighting for your outdoor wedding you should use decorative lanterns as these are less likely to blow over or away in the wind.

When designing your wedding centerpieces for your table decorations you should think outside the box and not go with the traditional candles. Think beautiful flower or even fruit arrangements to accent the tables or even little pools of water that have items that float in the shape of hearts, bells or other such wedding themed objects.
