How To Make Your Big Day Special With Wedding Luminary Bags

By Stephen Kennedy


If you are getting married you likely want your wedding to look as beautiful and special as possible. One way to do this is to use wedding luminary bags. Here are some ways that you can incorporate these items into your wedding or reception and how to find the ones that are right for your needs.

You may have seen luminaria used before without knowing what they are. These were originally used more in New Mexico and the Southwest United States but as people saw them more and more, they are being used in areas all around the world. Candles are placed inside bags and the glow from the candle can be seen on the outside. Some individuals choose to leave the bags plain while others decorate them.

Ceremonies are not the only place that these items can be used. They can also be used to decorate a reception venue as well. If you know that one area will be more dimly lit than another, this may be a better place for you to position your candles. This is because the light they send out may be lost if the lighting is very bright.

Decorating your aisle can be a fantastic use for these items. If your ceremony is taking place outdoors as the sun is setting, the glow that luminaria give can create a beautiful ambiance that your guests will find memorable. If you are concerned about fire hazards, you can always rope off the aisle with tulle or ribbons so that guests are forced to enter from the other end of the rows. You can also substitute LED lights for traditional candles and get a similar look.

Many couples also put a lot of thought into how to decorate the altar or other area where the vows are being exchanged. They could be used on the altar itself or at the base of any decorative structures. Jewish couples may want to use them at the base of their chuppah. If you are using an arch, these luminaria can also be placed at the base of the arch as well.

There are ways to decorate with these items at your reception as well. They can be used as part of centerpieces as an alternative to regular candle holders. You may also want to use them as a way to show guests the direction to move from your ceremony area to the reception area if both events are taking place in different areas of the same location.

You are not limited to plain white bags for your luminaries either. You can always work with a designer to create a custom pattern or image to place on the bag. You may also want to decorate them with ribbon, small flowers or other items in order to give them added visual appeal. If you want to create a more definite light show, you might want to include cutouts on the bag so that the light can shine through more directly.

You may want to look online in order to purchase these items. You may be able to use an online service to design the bags themselves and then assemble them once they arrive. Often, you are able to purchase these items in large numbers which can be helpful if you have to create a large number of centerpieces or if you have a large area to decorate.
