When you choose to use a tent for your wedding day, you’re truly starting with a blank canvas. You can not only choose the size, shape, and style of your actual tent, but you can also choose your wall and roof colour (think white, black or clear to name a few options!) as well. Once the exterior choices are made, it’s time to think interior options, and the sky is truly the limit for your tent decor!

Wedding planner extraordinaire Crystal Adair-Benning, owner of Distinct Occasions a Canadian wedding planning company, suggests two options when you’re decorating the interior of your tent – either keep it super simple, or go total glam. Deciding which option is going to be best for you and your partner will mean imagining what kind of vibe you want your wedding guests to enjoy on your big day. Here are some tips from Regal Tent Productions:

Keep it Super Simple

This option is going to be your best bet for a more rustic, outdoorsy type wedding! Keeping the interior of the tent clean with simple lines, and easy decor means that you can keep your guests’ attention where it should be – on you! With this option you may want to use a few hanging pieces to add some character, but the focus would mostly be on table decor, as pictured below:

Let’s Go Glam

If you’ve been dreaming about your wedding since you were a little one, going glam inside a tent means that every single wish you’ve ever had for your big day can be made into a reality! Fabric draping, ornate chandeliers, living plants, elaborate centerpieces – you can have it all! Like the fabulous wedding pictured below, every detail from colour selection to choosing the ultimate dance floor is in your control!

So the question now is – which option would you choose? Something simple and elegant with clean lines and tasteful decor, or something elaborate and breathtaking with ornate decor that epitomizes who you are as a couple? We’d love to hear what you’d do, so be sure to comment below with your choice!
