How stunning is this tented wedding reception? The white sailcloth overhead is accented with white material on the posts. Warm white patio-style lights strung overhead criss cross above the guests. A tented wedding reception is so romantic, with an incredible after-dark atmosphere and in this case an incredible view of the Bristol Bay!
Tips for a great tented wedding:
* It's worth the expense if you think it may be hot or cold to add fans or heaters. This wedding didn't need either, but I have been to many where those rented items have saved the day (and are often not available last-minute as others are also grabbing them once the weather reports come out).
*Shawls or wraps for guests. Even in summer in New England, a chilly breeze can pop up at night and a light layer will add a cozy touch. Bonus, you can color-coordinate and have the shawls double as decor in the early reception, or even as a party favor!
*Bug spray. Sorry but true, you never know when flying things are going to come out in humidity and ruin a party. It's great to have a basket of these items on hand incase the are needed. At this location there is almost always a breeze so no worries here!
