Fall wedding season is upon us and the trend of using lanterns to light the bride and groom’s pathway into the future is alive and well this season. By all means this is not the first wedding season that lanterns have dominated the wedding circuit, but with so many brides on a quest to find the perfect ambient lighting for their big day; it’s good to know that DVFlora has your back in providing quality and stylish lanterns to complete any wedding look. From traditional to contemporary we are going to do a DV roundup of our favorites in candle accessories to make your DVFlora shopping experience a breeze!
- Cream Square Lantern Set of 3 (S10656): Wedding traditions come to life in this classic inspired lantern. Constructed of metal and glass, this lantern with a cream paint finish will complete any traditional wedding look with a delicate flair all its own. The set includes 3 lanterns of varying sizes; the smallest measures 14” tall with a width of 6.5”, the medium lantern measures 16” tall with a 7.5” opening, and the large measures 20” tall with an 8.5” width. These lanterns are compatible with real candles as well as battery operated LED candles. My absolute favorite way of displaying these is to use a small cluster of 2 or 3 lanterns of varying sizes and mixing up the candle sizes within, I like to use pillar candles in a range of sized from 3×3, 3×6, and 3×9, it is so simple and yet makes an impact.

- Black Square Lantern Set of 3 (S5976): No rustic barn or outdoor ceremony is complete without a robust lantern housing a candle whose warm glow leads the way and melts the hearts of the guests. This metal and glass lantern finished off in classic matte black paint offers you rustic charm sure to enhance any special event you can throw their way. Like their cream sister mentioned previously, this black lantern oozes class and sophistication but in a more relaxed way, their darker color allows them to blend more into the background to help enhance the atmosphere instead of taking control of the situation. Just like their sister they are available in 3 sizes; the smallest measures 14” tall with a width of 6.5”, the medium lantern measures 16” tall with a 7.5” opening, and the large measures 20” tall with an 8.5” width. They are also candle safe and lend themselves beautifully to a battery operated LED candle. I absolutely adore utilizing two sets of these lanterns and clustering them on each side of the alter behind the bride and groom, they provide the perfect pop of brightness but they don’t overwhelm the senses.
- Gold Mercury Glass Candle Holder Set of 3 (S30474): Although these candle holders are not lanterns, I could not resist including them in on our candle accessory round up. I do so many weddings that have a set of 3 candle holders in varying heights mixed together in the center of a table, that being said, I am always looking for a new take on this wedding trend and I turn to our new 2015 fall/winter catalog for inspiration. Simple, stunning romance comes to mind when I look at these candle holders; their rose gold color is a breath of fresh air and help to lighten the mood and the spirit of wedding guests who crowd around you creations to celebrate their loved ones special day. Their quilted like texture creates a feeling of depth upon the glass and the mercury gold coloration enhances the sophistication of this timeless wedding tradition. They are sold in a set of 3 and come in 3 different sizes; the small measures 12” in height with an opening of 4.75”, the medium which is 14” tall with a 4.75” opening, and finally the large which is 16” tall with a 4.75” opening. These holders can accommodate a 3×3 pillar candle and also work well with a battery operated LED candles, the warm glow provided by these delicately unique candle holders is unparalleled by any of its predecessors. I picture a tablescape with a set of these candle holders amongst a sea of champagne and cream colored blooms with maybe a pop of peach or blush so that way they will form a neutral backdrop to enhance the architectural beauty of these trendy luminaries.
